A BEGINNER’S GUIDE TO RIFLE OVERVIEW: Competitors shoot in three different positions (prone, standing and kneeling) from a distance of 50 ft. with a .22 caliber rifle. The Bull’s-eye, or 10-ring, is one-half millimeter wide, the size of the period at the end of this sentence. RIFLES: By international rules, .22 caliber rifles used in competition can weigh up to 12 lbs. for women and 17 lbs. for men. COURSE OF FIRE FOR AIR RIFLE: Competitors have 115 minutes to fire 60 shots in the standing position.
CLEANED: A perfect target, in which the shooter hits a 10 on each of the 10 bulls on the sheet. Can also be used in reference to a perfect match.
RANGE OFFICER: The person in charge of timing the match and “running the line” (assisting shooters who are having difficulties).
FRONT SITE: The sight attached to the end of the barrel of the rifle, holding the front aperture.
REARSITE: The sight attached near the rear of the gun where adjustments can be made.
INNER 10: Also known as an “X” achieved when the shot hole is completely inside the 9 ring.
RECORD SHOTS: Also known as “for record shots,” those shots that are counted toward the match score, with “sighters” not included.
IRON SIGHTS: Sights that employ no magnification. COURSE OF FIRE FOR SMALLBORE: Competitors have 20 minutes to fire 20 shots in prone, 40 minutes to fire 20 shots standing and 30 minutes to fire 20 shots kneeling. There is a 15-minute equipment change period in between stages. SCORING: Each bull on a target is worth a maximum of 10 points which could equal 100. The six targets are added together to make up the total score. A perfect score of 600 is the maximum for both smallbore and air rifle. SHOOTING TERMS AIR RIFLE: A gun that uses a .177 caliber lead pellet propelled by a charge of compressed air instead of a gunpowder charge. BULL: Shortened form of “bull’s-eye.” There are 12 bulls per target, 10 for competition and two for “sighters.”
www.Facebook.com/OleMissSports www.Facebook.com/OleMissRifle
RELAY: Shooters firing the match at once at a designated time. KNEELING: Shooting from a kneeling position with the offhand (non-trigger side) supported by the off knee. STANDING: The unsupported standing position (shooting “off the hand” rather than with the nontrigger arm supported on a knee to the floor). PLUG: A metal device the same size as the shot hole, used to score targets. Variations include the “inner plug,” with which the score is determined by the contact point of the innermost portion of the plug, and the “outer plug,” in which the contact point of a small ring on the outermost portion of the hole is used to determine the score.
SMALLBORE: A .22 caliber gun used in competition. SIGHTERS: Practice shots taken before going for “record shots.” TIE BREAKING: Ties in matches are broken as follows: Smallbore: 1) by the last 10 shot string starting with kneeling 2) by the next 10 shot string working backwards Air Rifle: 1) by the highest score by target in reverse order
PRONE: Shooting from a lying position.

COACHES & STAFF
HEAD COACH
VALERIE BOOTHE 17TH YEAR | OLE MISS | 1997 Valerie Boothe is in her 17th season as head coach of the Ole Miss rifle program. The only coach in school history, Boothe was hired prior to the start of the 1996-97 season when rifle became a varsity sport at Ole Miss. “Valerie is a hard worker who is very passionate about the sport of rifle,” Executive Associate Athletics Director, Lynnette Johnson says. “Her loyalty and dedication have been very obvious during her 16 years. She is well-respected in her sport and continues to work to maintain our program in the national spotlight. “This program was built from the ground up and all of the credit goes to Valerie. She has been quick to assemble one of the most respected programs in the country. We are very proud to have her as our head coach and I am excited about our team this year.” From the start, Boothe had a vision. Knowing that the program would begin as a work-in-progress, she was willing to put in the time and effort for a chance at having long-term success. Now, as the team prepares to open its 17th season, it seems as if Boothe’s long hours, positive attitude and patience have paid off. The program enters the 203-14 campaign with a strong foundation of five seniors returning and three freshmen. “We have a very talented group returning for this season as well as some new faces. We know what we want out of this season and will work until we get it,” said Boothe. In 2012, Boothe guided sophomore Abbey Stanec to the school’s second, second place finish at the NCAA Championships. In 16 seasons at Ole Miss, Boothe has helped several individuals to a variety of accolades. In 2008, Shannon Wilson became the second Rebel to win a conference title when she claimed the smallbore crown at the GARC Championships. Jennifer Lorenzen claimed the combined title just one year before. Boothe also guided Rebels Keely Stankey and Erica Swanson to top-10 finishes in the air rifle at the 2009 U.S. Junior Olympics. She has tutored numerous athletes to success at the Junior Olympic level, including helping lead Wilson to gold in the smallbore at the 2006 U.S. Junior Olympics. Under Boothe’s watch, Ole Miss Rifle had its most successful season ever in 2005-06. The Rebels earned their first ever appearance in the NCAA Championships, attained the program’s first NCAA sectional victory and saw Ole Miss set or tie school records for team aggregate, air rifle and smallbore scoring, as well as individual air rifle and smallbore marks. Shannon Wilson was named the program’s first first-team All-American by the National Rifle Association, and Jennifer Lorenzen picked up her second consecutive All-America honor. In all Boothe’s club has received seven All-American Awards. In 2006, Boothe was recognized as National Coach of the Year by the Collegiate Rifle Coaches Association. The program has continued to excel both at the range and in the classroom as evidenced by the fact that Boothe has coached 32 different studentathletes to All-Academic honors. In 2013, all seven players earned Collegiate Rifle Coaches’ Association All-Academic honors. 4 | @OLEMISSNOW | @OLEMISSRIFLE | @VALERIEBOOTHE
In 2008, Casey Phillips earned second-team ESPN The Magazine/CoSIDA Academic All-America honors, the first such honor in program history. Phillips, a Phi Beta Kappa scholar, graduated with a perfect 4.0 GPA. A native of Livingston, Tenn., Boothe was a collegiate shooter at UT-Martin from 1992 to 1996. She won the Tennessee State Smallbore title in 1994 in addition to capturing four Tennessee State Air Rifle championships from 1993 to 1996. Boothe also competed in the Junior Olympics on four different occasions. Boothe has served as a member of several national committees, including the NCAA Rifle Committee from 2002-07 and NRA Collegiate Programs Committee. After serving as the NCAA’s interim chairperson in 2003-04, Boothe was promoted to full-time chair the following year and now is serving as a committee chair on the NCAA Committee. Boothe earned a bachelor’s degree in social work from Ole Miss in 1997and also holds an NRA coaches certification. and is a member of the Oxford-University Methodist Church. She and her husband, Christopher, reside in Oxford with their two daughters -- Sarah and Olivia. Boothe is a member of the Oxford-University Methodist Church.
Clockwise: Olivia, Christopher, Valerie and Sarah.
COACHES & STAFF
ASSISTANT COACH
NATASHA DINSMORE THIRD YEAR | WEST VIRGINIA | 2008 Natasha Dinsmore is in her fourth season with the Ole Miss Rifle program after being promoted to assistant coach in September of 2011. Dinsmore served as a graduate assistant for the team in the 2010-2011 season, after concluding a fouryear career on the West Virginia Rifle team. Dinsmore assists Boothe in coaching, recruiting and with administrative duties, as well as in strength and conditioning and organizing team travel. Dinsmore received the inaugural GARC Assistant Coach of the Year Award at the Conference Championships last February. “It was such a honor to receive this award, and I will continue to work hard throughout this next season to keep the team proud to have me as a coach,” Dinsmore said.
Dinsmore went to Morgantown as a walk-on student-athlete, earned a scholarship and was a four-year letterwinner. She took up competitive shooting while visiting Germany on a Congress-Bundestag Youth Exchange Scholarship. After falling in love with the sport, Dinsmore turned down a field hockey scholarship to pursue her new found love of shooting in college. From State College, Pa, Dinsmore earned the GARC Academic Award for having the highest GPA on the Mountaineer team in 2006 and was named to the Athletic Academic Honor Roll every semester as a student at WVU. She earned a Bachelor’s of Science degree in Animal and Veterinary Sciences in 2008 and followed that with a Master’s in Agriculture, Forestry and Consumer Sciences in 2010. Dinsmore recently completed a Master’s of Science in Exercise Science with an emphasis in Exercise Physiology here at Ole Miss.

OLE MISS IN THE JUNIOR OLYMPICS
In athletics, the success of a program can often be measured by the results produced during the course of a season. The schedule is examined, scores are tallied and "W’s” and "L’s” are stacked up. But, the true measure of the pieces that comprise a program can be gained by looking beyond the season. What an athlete is able to accomplish in the off-season can give a greater insight into the pieces of the bigger picture. Such is the case with members of the Ole Miss rifle team who have been given opportunities to shine in both the regular season and in individual competitions away from the program. The Rebels have had a tremendous amount of success during their 12 regular seasons under the guidance of head coach Valerie Boothe. But, what the individuals who comprise the Ole Miss rifle program have been able to achieve in the off-season is, without question, a great accomplishment as well. Fifteen members of the program have participated in the Junior Olympics. In 2009, current Rebels Keely Stankey and Colleen Tillson both claimed top 10 finishes in the air rifle, while Meredith Holman placed tenth out of 94 shooters in the air rifle at the 2008 U.S. Junior Olympic Championships. Shannon Wilson added another accomplishment to a stellar season by winning the gold at the 2006 U.S. Junior Olympics women's rifle smallbore competition. Wilson bested 57 shooters to take home first place in the two-day event held at the Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, Colo. She won the event with a score of 1251.6 and went on to represent her country at the 2006 World Shooting Championships. In 2005, Jennifer Lorenzen competed in her second Junior Olympics and finished sixth in the 50-meter smallbore. Casey Phillips and Shannon Wilson also competed in 2005. Lorenzen won a bronze medal the year before in the 50-meter smallbore. Other Rebels to compete include: Laura Gavin (2003), Samantha Leach (2003), Mara Polonsky (2003), Megan Roberts (2003), Megan Sandage (2003), Shanda Duval (2002), Katie Trickett (2001) and Maranda Stockton (2000).
