COLUMBUS, Ohio - University of Akron freshman Kayla Andreoli (Washington, Pa.) culminated her rookie campaign registering a score of 585 in the air rifle competition at the NCAA Rifle Championships on Saturday, March 13, in Columbus, Ohio.

"I am very proud of Kayla and her performance today at the NCAA Rifle Championships," Akron head coach Newt Engle commented. "She has worked very hard for this and to be able to achieve a score that she can be proud of. I can't think of a better person to represent our team and our University at this national level event."

Andreoli posted the third-best air rifle score for an at-large selection in the competition en route to placing 38th overall with her 585 score.
