zippyrifle32 Posted February 13, 2006 Report Share Posted February 13, 2006 here's the link to the ncaa site that has akron ranked #14 before ncaa sectionals. i believe this is up from last year, but chances are very slim for going to the championships. rifle ranksthe selection match is weighted to count for half of the average when making the final selection. these current rankings are the averages of the top two away matches at different venues, and the top home match. while there are only 16 teams listed, i believe there are a little over 50 schools with an ncaa team. i'm not sure of the exact number, but 57 keeps popping into my mind.

Sloopy Posted February 13, 2006 Report Share Posted February 13, 2006 So sorry but this does not really get me excited. Making the top 20 in a spot with less than 60 teams is no real accomplishment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's definately nothing to be ashamed of either.I say, kudos. Keep up the good work, and I'm happy to see improvement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zen Posted February 13, 2006 Report Share Posted February 13, 2006 Please learn to spell. My post was in jest, although you do seem to be unnecessarily negative in this thread, in my opinion. And I know that you know the misspelling was intentional. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zippyrifle32 Posted February 14, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2006 look sloopy, if you don't like the rifle team that's fine. being near the top 10 is an accomplishment especially when seeing that none of our team members are olympians/national team/national development team. shooting is a small sport, and the teams that are top five have several national team members. we have a lot of potential, but we're not over that hill yet.

zipboy Posted February 16, 2006 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 14th out of 60 is about the same as 20th in football with about 120 Div 1 teams. Plus they beat columbus state every year and are ranked ahead of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
