No. 1 Mountaineers Open GARC Season

The Mountaineers will shoot smallbore and air rifle inside Reynolds Coliseum on Saturday beginning at 10 a.m.

WVU (1-0) returns to competition following a two-week break. The seven-time reigning GARC champion Mountaineers opened their 2016-17 season defeating then- No. 5 Ohio State, 4714-4674, on Oct. 2.

“I think it’s going to be a great experience to shoot smallbore and air rifle in the arena Saturday,” Mountaineer coach Jon Hammond said. “This set-up will be very similar to the NCAA and GARC Championships, and the experience is valuable at this stage of the season. This will be a new facility for everyone on the team, and that offers a good challenge.
