TUCSON, Arizona (March 4, 2019)
Already individual champions at USA Shooting’s Spring Selection Match in Tucson, Arizona, the duo of Ashley Carroll and Derek Haldeman earned another title as Mixed Team Trap gold medalists Monday to finish off the trap portion of competition from Tucson Trap and Skeet Club.
Carroll (Solvang, California) and the U.S. Army Marksmanship (USAMU) soldier-athlete Haldeman (Sunbury, Ohio) were second in Qualification behind the duo of Kayle Browning (Wooster, Arkansas) and Brian Burrows (Fallbrook, California), 141-140. In the Finals, Carroll and Haldeman would prevail, 45-41, to secure victory. The two will pair together at the upcoming World Championships in Lonato, Italy, hoping to improve upon a fifth-place showing they had in 2017 in Moscow, Russia. On Sunday, Browning finished third in the individual standings while Burrows was second to Haldeman.
Bronze medalists would be Julia Stallings (Rossville, Tennessee) and Grayson Davey (Anchorage, Alaska). Stallings finished sixth in the women’s standings while Davey was bronze medalist in the Junior Men’s competition as well.
