SCTP Team Results

Another great day for MTCS Trap. Several squads were affected by class trips and spring break plans but still the MTCS trap team walked away with 3 squad awards. The Rookie squad won FIRST place and were excited to pose for their picture above. The Varsity and IA squads earned 2nd place in each of their divisions. Congratulations!

AIM Team Results

Congratulations on a great day Saturday! The MTCS squads DOMINATED in every category. Special congratulation are due to Trey Hill and Lucas Smith who lead all shooters with perfect 100's! Our #1 Junior and #1 Sub-Junior squads finished 1-2 overall and easily won their categories. Combined their scores of 487 and 483 represent the best 2 squad score in MTCS history and perhaps in all of Scholastic Shooting....I have never heard of a better performance anyway.

Remember we shoot under two different national governing bodies, SCTP and AIM.

The divisions in SCTP (grade based) are:

  • Varsity (JV and V) 9th - 12th grades
  • Intermediate (Entry and Advanced) 6th - 8th grades
  • Rookie 4th - 5th grades

The AIM Categories (age based on Sept. 1st) are:

  • Junior (15-19)
  • Sub-Junior (12-14)
  • Pre-Sub (under 12)

To help add to the confusion: I have combined the two structures together into a compromise plan which betters captures the students who will shoot together for both types of competition:

  • Black Team (Grades 10-12)
  • Orange Team (Grades 7-9)
  • White Team (Grades 4-6)
  • Pink Team (Girls in grades 9-12)

For coaching purposes, the shooters will be divided into color groups, but there may be a few shooters who shoot with different squads on SCTP weekends depending on what strategy give us the best chance to succeed. See the Team.pdf link for a breakdown of the roster by team color.,


Sponsors Needed

We need to raise about $300 per shooter to pay for practice targets and competition entry fees. In years past we have made most of the needed money through sponsorships. If you, or someone you know, would like to sponsor the team for 2012 then please let me know. You can download the sponsorship letter / application here:
