    March 11, 2011

    U.S. Air Force Academy, Colo. - Air Force Academy senior Tom Chandler finished 15th with an aggregate score of 580 in the smallbore three-position (relay 1: 98-98-93-98-96-97) at the 2011 NCAA Men's and Women's Rifle Championships, earlier today, March 11, in Columbus, Ga.

    "Tom had a great career at the Academy and he made it to the championships his final season," said head coach Launi Meili. "It's the most exciting match of the year and he shot just below his average. Of course you'd like to finish on top, but that's realistically where his scores have been and he maintained it.

    Chandler (Waco, Texas, formally of Oak Harbor, Wash.) qualified for the national championship at the NCAA Qualifiers Match in February with a 580 in the gun.
