Brookland Elementary School

10 Brookland Bearcat Trap team members traveled to Sparta, Illinois for a 5 day tournament to compete against championship teams from the entire USA, and several other countries.

Caden Foster
Brock Malone
Max Counts
Aiden Ballard

Molly Counts
Klair Wood
Asher Ballard
Jaxson Shell
Matthew Lyerly

These 10 competed in different events in 2 different age classes (15-17 and 12-14).
Overall they finished the squad/team events in 2nd place nationally in both of their age classes. Max Counts also finished as runner-up individually in his age class.
Although this sport is not as well known as some others at the school, it takes an incredible amount of time and dedication to get to this level.
The temperatures they competed in over these last days were ridiculous. Sunday was 103 actual and 122 heat index. However, they hydrated, found shade when possible, and pushed through to show what Bearcats are capable of!
