WEST POINT, N.Y. – No. 15 NC State rifle nearly took down No. 14 Army on Monday inside of Tronsue Marksmanship Center but the Black Knights held on and handed the Wolfpack a tight 4680-4665 loss.
Both teams fired a 2355 air rifle score but Army (1-5) edged NC State (1-7) by just 15 points in smallbore (2325-2310) which was the difference maker in the match and allowed the Black Knights to earn their first win of the season.
One day after setting a career mark in smallbore, Ben Salas bested that mark by posting a team-best 583. With a 583, Salas posted the second-highest smallbore score of the match. Addy Burrow followed behind as she fired a 579, which was the fourth-best mark in the discipline. Both Katie Tedeschi and Travis Stockton rounded out the scoring for NC State with a total of 574 apiece.
