WEST POINT, N.Y. - The 10th-rated University of Akron rifle team battled a pair of ranked opponents this past Saturday, Oct. 30 as the Zips traveled to West Point, N.Y. to face No. 16 Army and No. 3 TCU.

The results were not what Akron hoped for as TCU finished in the top slot with a score 4717, followed by Army with a 4684 total and then the Zips, who posted a score of 4669.

Senior Wyatt Openshaw (Parkton, Md.) led the Zips in the smallbore registering a 581 out of the possible 600. Sophomore Kayla Andreoli (Washington, Pa.) nearly entered the elite 580's with her 579. Another impressive fact is the next eight members of the squad all fired in the 570's.

Akron garnered strong showings in the air rifle as seven Zips recorded scores in the 590's, which is less than 10 points away from the perfect 600. Junior Brendan Seitz (Milford, Mass.) had a break-out match by posting a career-best score of 592. Also turning in a 592 was Openshaw.
