🔵 ONE BIG THING

Right on Target. Whether the target is in the air or straight ahead, sophomore Sophia Ceccarello has perfect aim. Ceccarello performed on the international stage at the 2023 ISSF World Cup in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, and competed in the women’s 10-meter air rifle and 50-meter three-positions.

Ceccarello’s seventh-place finish in the air rifle and fifth-place finish in the three positions set her legacy of becoming one of the best female shooters in the world. In air rifle, she scored a 145. In the three positions, she scored 199 in kneeling, 196 in prone, and 194 in standing, for a total of 589.
