US archers earn Olympic spots for Rio de Janeiro

NEWBERRY, Fla. (AP) — Brady Ellison and Jake Kaminski are heading to another Olympics in archery after earning spots through an arduous U.S. qualification process that concluded on Monday.

Zach Garrett also locked up a position, giving the American men a full contingent of three for the Rio de Janeiro Olympics.

Ellison and Kaminski helped the Americans capture a silver medal in the team competition at the 2012 London Games.

On the women's side, Mackenzie Brown has secured a spot, with Hye Youn Park and Khatuna Lorig in line to make it but still some work to do.
