JACKSONVILLE – The 15th-ranked Jax State rifle team faces its first road match of the season, heading northwest to Murray, Kentucky, to face ninth-ranked Murray State in a shoulder-to-shoulder match on Saturday morning at the Pat Spurgin Rifle Range. The match also serves as the home opener for the Racers.
Jax State comes into the match with an 0-1 record after falling two weeks ago to Morehead State to open the season. In that match, Frans Rasmusson posted the highest aggregate score of the day at 1180, but the Eagles bested the Gamecocks by 18 points with the second, third, and fourth place finishers posting aggregates of 1179, 1177, and 1172, respectively.
Murray State enters with an 1-1 record, falling to Kentucky to open the season but evening its ledger with a 4712-4660 victory over the aforementioned Eagles last Saturday. Both matches were on the road.
The Racers are led by Mallory Johnson, who has an aggregate of 1182 on the year. She has posted a smallbore average of 589.5 and an air rifle average of 592.5 so far this season. The Racers are also without the OVC Rifle Athlete of the Year, Carlotta Salafia, who is competing in the ISSF World Cup in Cairo, Egypt.
The match is slated to begin at 9 a.m., and fans can keep up with the live scorecard through ncaarifle.org.
