Saturday, March 11, 2017 the Paoli Archery Team advanced to the Indiana State tournament. In total, they took 26 students with 12 of their scores adding up to their total of a 3,197.
"I thought the team did well overall. We had to fight through some adversity in regards to archers stepping up that we typically do not rely on, but they responded well," said Coach Kyle Woolston.
Seventh grader Kennon Scott was the only archer to compete as an individual. "Kennon Scott competed as an individual at state and shot his personal best of a 270," said Woolston.
Once all the State tournaments have been completed, the scores will be place in order from best to worst, and the best teams will be invited to the National tournament in Louisville. The Paoli team hopes to find out if they have earned a spot at the National competition in late March.
