CHAMPIONSHIP RESULTS

CHARLESTON, S.C.
– Georgia Southern Rifle closed the 2015-16 season this weekend at the Southeastern Air Rifle Conference Championships, placing third in the team standings while Rosemary Kramer finished fourth in the individual rankings. Two seniors, Emmy Johnson and Ale Shortridge, closed their careers after joining the Georgia Southern program with the inaugural program in 2013-14.

The 2016 SEARC Championships were contested with the air rifle at The Citadel's Inouye Marksmanship Center. Beginning in 2016-17 the SEARC will be absorbed by the Southern Conference as the Eagles rejoin the league as an associate member.
