      The Rifle team won their seventh State Championship in December 2005, and placed third in the Third Brigade/Civilian Marksmanship Championships in May.  In 2006 Emily Grant was the top female Riflewoman in the State of West Virginia.
      The team practices three nights a week, and participates in ten to fifteen rifle meets each season.  Some of these meets are fired at other schools throughout the area.  Traditionally, we shoot against Preston County High School, the Navy JROTC Detachment at Lincoln High School, Webster County High School, Capital High School and Preston County High School.  The team has participated in regional events in Virginia, Ohio and Kentucky.
 In 1999 and in 2006 the Rifle Team represented the State of West Virginia in the US National Championships in Atlanta, Georgia and at Fort Benning, Georgia.
