MEMPHIS, Tenn. – It was the final home match for University of Memphis' Leighton Dempster Saturday when the Tigers hosted Ole Miss. And, on her Senior Day, she capped her outstanding career in fine fashion.
The Loranger, La., native shot a school-record 589 in smallbore to easily win the discipline by eight points. Dempster broke the previous smallbore school record of 587 set by her head coach Dan Hermsmeier and former teammate Amy Fister.
Earlier this season, Dempster tied the school record for air rifle twice. She shot a 596 twice at Army Oct.
