YME Trap team meets in cold, windy conditions

The YME Trap Team shot in freezing, windy conditions Sunday, April 3rd. As you can see, the shooters are bundled up, but they got their rounds in before the snowfall. They shot very well considering and we are very proud of their determination. Safety is always the first priority so when there is a gun jammed, Head Coach Jeff Berthelsen steps right up to the shooter to figure out the issue. Fix or replace what is needed so the athlete can continue to shoot and finish their round. Athletes are not allowed to leave their stations on the field when there is an issue. All athletes enter and leave the field at the same time in formation.

YME Trap Team welcomes new members

The YME Trap Team welcomes five new athletes for this 2022 Spring season. All but one athlete was allowed to shoot their first 50 rounds. I bet you are wondering why there is one that does not get to shoot yet? Although he has obtained his firearm safety certificate number, he also needs to be 12-years of age. He is still a part of the team and went through all the new athlete motions just like the others and will be shooting soon. (Left to Right) Sarana West, Aidan Martin, Mathias Vonderharr, Archer Schmidt and Mario Ochoa. Watch for more Trap Team news in next week’s newspaper.
