"Nebraska's Cecelia Ossi won the NCAA smallbore title, highlighting a strong performance from the No. 7 Nebraska rifle team at the 2023 NCAA Championships on Friday at the James A. Rhodes Arena in Akron, Ohio."

She and her team, deserves a post on this forum.

"Ossi is the first Husker to win a NCAA Championship since Rachel Martin accomplished the feat in 2015 in the smallbore and Nebraska's fourth individual NCAA Champion. NU's other individual national champions are Kristina Fehlings (air rifle, 2006), and Nicole Allaire (smallbore, 2000). "

"The Nebraska rifle team jumped up to first place in the latest College Rifle Coaches Association (CRCA) poll, jumping past now No. 4 TCU.

NU posted scores of 4,747 and 4,742 over the weekend, taking down then-No. 1 TCU and Schreiner. The Huskers have been rewriting the record books all season, as these scores were good for the second and third-highest team aggregate scores in school history respectively.

Rankings are updated each week and determined by the previous week’s score. The Big Red’s score of 4,747 is currently tied with Kentucky, but Nebraska holds the tiebreaker, as the Huskers’ score includes 353 x-counts compared to the Wildcats’ 340."
