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 19 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. Each year members of the team participate in the Junior Olympics. Most recently in 2015, current sophomore Jessica Haig was one of only two athletes to make both event finals, finishing fifth in air rifle and seventh in smallbore. Junior Alison Weisz made the finals of air rifle and finished eighth. In 2009, Keely Stankey and Colleen Tillson both claimed top 10 finishes in the air rifle, while Meredith Holman placed 10th 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, Colorado. 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 Jennifer Lorenzen 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).
