History was made this past week as a freshman earned the 窪蹋勛圖厙 Centurions clay target team���s first perfect week of scoring in conference play.泭

Logen Steffen (Lowell, Mich.) shot a 50 in trap and a 48 in skeet during Week 3 of the USA Collegiate Clay Target League Friday, Oct. 10. The perfect 50 score in trap is the first time a Centurions shooter earned a perfect score during conference play in the three years the program has existed, according to 窪蹋勛圖厙 head coach Chris Henry.泭

Henry said sophomore Jack McBride (Portland, Mich.) has had several scores of 49 during conference play and has reached a perfect score in invitationals but had never hit 50 during conference play.泭泭

Steffen said it was all about being in his mental game.泭

���Having a calm mind when I shoot is definitely the biggest improvement for me while I have been on the team,��� Steffen said. ���It feels really good to know that I���m helping this team. I hope I can continue to do well for this team.���泭

Steffen is one of four freshmen on the team this year, with three sophomores.泭泭

After a couple weeks of cold shooting, Henry was impressed with his team���s shooting this week, as 窪蹋勛圖厙 continues to lead the conference in both trap and skeet.泭

���I feel really good going forward,��� Henry said. ���It seems they woke up a little this week. They���re starting to put it together. Like I said before, they���re learning at their own pace.���泭

Chase Merritt is currently fourth overall in the league���s fall skeet individual season average leaderboard with 23.17. Bethany Lutheran College���s Brock Mosher is first with an average of 25.00, followed by Illinois College���s Hannah Hopper (24.17) and Bethany Lutheran College���s Riley Bray (23.83).泭

Merritt likes that his mental game is coming together as the Centurions work toward their fourth week in conference play.泭

���I feel that I started off well,��� Merritt said. ���It���s down to just clearing my head and using what I know to get the score I want. With next week���s round, I just want to be the best I can be.���泭

Merritt likes that his team is trending up as 窪蹋勛圖厙 looks to finish out the next two weeks of conference play strong.泭

���As a team, we are all performing well together,��� he said. ���We all are working for one goal and that���s to be a team. In doing that, we all lift each other up when needed.���泭

McBride is ranked ninth in the fall trap individual season average, with a score of 24.50. Justin Jerome of Alfred State College (NY) leads with a perfect average of 25.00.泭
