Earlier this month, the Ascension Parish 4-H Shooting Team represented the Parish for the first time at the 52nd Daisy National BB Gun Championship Match in Rogers, Ark. <\/p>\n
Throughout the three-day event, the seven 4-Hers were tested on their shooting education such as the different types of firearms and fire safety, along with shooting in four positions: prone, kneeling, standing and sitting. <\/p>\n
According to Coach Jodi Daigle, the team placed 34th out of over 70 teams, not bad considering it was the team's first time making it to the championship. <\/p>\n
\"We had a good competition,\" he said. \"They posted in the middle of the pack. It's an overall fun trip, there's a lot of good things that came out of that trip and for it to not be a moral booster, I don't see how it could not be.\" <\/p>\n
Team members included James Daigle, Kinslei Scroggs, Jaxon Swanson, Andrew Poche, Aidan Cole, Grant Marquis and Katie Swanson, who are all part of the Ascension 4-H shooting sports. <\/p>\n
