Edmonson County Archery Finishes 21st In World Competition At Florida Tournament

2017 Edmonson County Archery Team at the World Tournament in Orlando, FL.

Edmonson Voice Sports: 
The Edmonson County Archery Team is moving up in the world...world ranking, that is. The team just completed their third consecutive trip to the NASP World Tournament, with this year's competition being held in Orlando, Florida.

The team, which certainly had humble beginnings in 2015 with a handful of student athletes and a small batch of equipment, has blossomed into a respected team that has proven their ability to hold their own with much bigger schools, all across the globe.

The team has continued to improve from day one, this time finishing 21st out of 69 teams in the world, up from a 39 ranking in last year's tournament, which was a huge improvement over their first world finish in 2015 of 71.

Archers compete during the tournament.

Coach Chris Shelton speaks to his team during the tournament.
