Bemidji’s Lumberjacks finished 56th out of 240 teams at the USA High School Clay Target League National Championship in Mason, Michigan, shooting a 463 against a field of about 1,800 athletes. Senior Avery Kehoe led the local individual results, placing 26th overall among female shooters with a 93, 16 reverse.

On June 26, Bemidji won its first Minnesota State High School League clay target title at the Minneapolis Gun Club in Prior Lake, shooting a 487 out of 500 and edging Lakeville South by one target. That championship also marked the Lumberjacks’ eighth straight state tournament appearance.
