Ole Miss Rifle coach Rachel Martin, in her second season with the Rebels, has led the team to its fifth straight NCAA Championship appearance. The NCAA Rifle Championships take place from March 14-15 in Lexington, Ky.
Growing up in Peralta, N.M., Martin showed dairy goats with 4-H, a youth engagement organization. Her dad coached the 4-H air rifle program and made Martin and her two sisters go to practices.
“I actually really genuinely did not like (rifle) at first because I was very bad and had very little talent for it; I really couldn’t grasp it,” Martin said.
