Rising Mountaineer junior Elizabeth Gratz will compete in women’s air rifle, while three former Mountaineer shooters – 2016 graduate Garrett Spurgeon, 2015 graduate Thomas Kyanko and 2010 graduate Bryant Wallizer – and graduate assistant Dan Hermsmeier will shoot in the men’s air rifle competition. One women’s roster spot and two men’s roster spots are up for grabs this weekend.
“It’s great for WVU rifle to have so much representation at this weekend’s Olympic Trials,” Mountaineer coach Jon Hammond said. “Every shooter should go into the match with a positive attitude and shoot for his or her best performance.
