MEDIA INFORMATION

OVERVIEW: Competitors shoot in three different posi-tions (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. 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 gunpow-der charge. BULL: Shortened form of “bull’s-eye.” There are 12 bulls per target, 10 for competition and two for “sighters.” 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. FRONT SITE: The sight attached to the end of the bar-rel of the rifle, holding the front aperture. INNER 10: Also known as an “X” achieved when the shot hole is completely inside the 9 ring. IRON SIGHTS: Sights that employ no magnification. 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.

PRONE: Shooting from a lying position. RANGE OFFICER: The person in charge of timing the match and “running the line” (assisting shooters who are having difficulties). REARSITE: The sight attached near the rear of the gun where adjustments can be made. RECORD SHOTS: Also known as “for record shots,” those shots that are counted toward the match score, with “sighters” not included. RELAY: Shooters firing the match at once at a desig-nated time. 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

2012-13 OUTLOOK

AIMING AT THE TARGET: 2013 NCAA CHAMPIONSHIPS

The Ole Miss rifle team has come so close to making the NCAA Championships as a team the past two years, and this year, they’re aiming to hit the target. With seven letterwinners and three of the top four shooters from 2011-12 return-ing this year, the Ole Miss rifle team earned a ranking of No. 6 in the Collegiate Rifle Coaches Association preseason poll. But head coach Valerie Boothe notes the final ranking is the one that counts. “We are excited about the ranking, but this number isn’t as important as the one at the end,” Boothe said. “This number may change throughout the year, but the team’s effort and dedication will not. We are determined to make this our best year.” Leading the returnees are juniors Melissa Quartarone and Abbey Stanec. Stanec finished runner-up at the NCAA Championships in air rifle with a 693.5 score, to complete a successful sophomore season, while Quartarone earned second team All-America hon-ors in smallbore. Stanec’s performance at last year’s NCAA Championships should definitely provide her a confidence boost heading into this season. “I think (Abbey’s) always wanted to be in that (top) league, but now she belongs there,” Boothe said. The Rebels boast one senior on the team, Kim Coffey, and five juniors, including Stanec and Quartarone and Mary Ann Banks, Rena Goodwin and Alivia Yeager. The lone newcomer to the team this year is freshman and Mississippi native, Alex Coyle. Inside the rifle range at the Patricia C. Lamar Readiness Center, where the team practices daily, they have a countdown clock on the wall that reads: “NCAA Rifle Champi-onships, have you done all you can to prepare?” The past two years, the team has come agonizingly close to making the NCAA Championships, a goal both Quartarone and Goodwin believe will happen this year. “We want to make it to NCAAs, but it’s more than that,” Quartarone said. “It’s not just about making it; we want to place at NCAAs. We just have to get over the qualifier hump.” Goodwin echoed her fellow captain. “We’ve kind of embraced what our new Ath-letics Director (Ross Bjork) has said about culture here and why not Ole Miss. We’ve

restructured our program some this year. We’ve all come in with different mindsets and we are ready to make it happen. We are focusing on the little things, like our culture, staying healthy and mentally strong and getting good grades. If we do all those things, then we can definitely achieve what Melissa said.” The quest begins on Oct. 4 at the Memphis Invitational. The Rebels will host the Ole Miss Invitational one day later (Oct. 5) in their first home event of the season. Ready, set aim: 2013 NCAA Championships.

COACHES & STAFF


HEAD COACH

VALERIE BOOTHE16TH YEAR | OLE MISS | 1997

Valerie Boothe is in her 16th 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 has worked very hard to build the Rifle program. Ole Miss has consistently been one of the top 15 programs in the country,” said Executive Associate Athletics Director, Lynnette Johynson. “We are very excited to see the con-tinued success as it unfolds this year.”

From the start, Boothe had a vision. Know-ing 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 for its 16th season, it seems as if Boothe’s long hours, posi-tive attitude and patience have paid off. The program enters the 2012-13 campaign with a strong foundation of seven letterwinners returning and an eye towards future success.

“We have a very talented group returning for this season as well as a fresh face to the team. We know what we want out of this season and will work until we get it,” said Boothe.

Last season, Boothe guided sophomore Abbey Stanec to the school’s second, second place finish at the NCAA Championships. In 15 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. Two All-American in the last season as well as nine Academic All-American.

Boothe also guided current 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 ath-letes 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 2005-2006. The Rebels earned their first ever appearance in the NCAA Championships, at-tained 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 sec-ond 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 student-athletes to All-Aca-demic honors. Last season, eight players including six returners-Coffey, Goodwin,Virginia Holman, Quartarone, Stankey and Alivia Yeager earned College Rifle Coaches’ Associa-tion All-Academic honors.

In 2008, Casey Phillips earned second-team ESPN The Magazine/CoSIDA Aca-demic 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 1997. She also

holds an NRA coaches certification and is a member of the Oxford-University Methodist Church.

She and her husband, Christopher, reside in Oxford and have two daughters -- Sarah and Olivia.

ASSISTANT COACH

NATASHA DINSMORESECOND YEAR | WEST VIRGINIA | 2008

Natasha Dinsmore is in her third sea-son with the Ole Miss Rifle program after being promoted to assistant coach in Sep-tember of last year. Dinsmore served as a graduate assistant for the team in the 2010-2011 season, after concluding a four-year career on the West Virginia Rifle team.

“Natasha continues to grow as a coach everyday, We are fortunate to have someone with such passion for the sport as well as solid work ethic here at Ole Miss,” said Ole Miss head coach Valerie Boothe.

Dinsmore assists Boothe in coaching, recruiting and with administrative duties, as well as in strength and conditioning and organizing team travel.

“I am very much looking forward to this season We are continuing to build off our strong foundation to capitalize on the talent we have returning this year.”

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 scholar-ship to pursue her new found love of shooting in college.

A native of Morgantown, 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 is currently pursuing a Master’s of Science in Exercise Science with an emphasis in Exercise Physiology and Pain Perception at Ole Miss.

HISTORY & RECORDS


In 1997, four schools came together with the goal of promoting the sport of rifle on the collegiate level. With an emphasis on ways to increase the awareness of shooting, those institutions -- Jacksonville State, Kentucky, West Virginia and Xavier -- took the first step by chartering the Great America Rifle Conference (GARC). League competition offi-cially began with the 1997-98 season. Ole Miss became a member of the GARC in 2001-02, joining the four original schools in one of the strongest rifle conferences in the nation. The sport has grown over that time period, with the GARC taking a lead on the national scene. Since its inception, the GARC has had three national champions -- West Virginia in 1998 and 2009, Army in 2006 and Kentucky last year -- and placed 23 teams in the top five of the NCAA Championships over the past nine seasons. A total of eight teams will claim conference ties in 2012-13 as Ole Miss, Army, Kentucky, Memphis, N.C. State, Nebraska, West Virginia and Xavier will compete in the GARC this season.

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 com-peted 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).

ATHLETICS SUPPORT


Under the leadership of Athletics Director Ross Bjork, Ole Miss launched the unique and comprehensive Health and Sports Performance program in July 2012, which takes a holistic approach to providing optimal health care for the demands of elite student-athletes. Through a complete collaboration between all services provided in the Health and Sports Performance model, Ole Miss is ensured not only healthy student-athletes, but ones that can achieve peak performance. These services include strength and conditioning, athletic training, team physicians, physical therapy, massage therapy, sports psychologist and sports nutrition. “Our team of Health and Sports Performance professionals strive to provide quality health and sports performance services based on the latest in health and strength training research,” said Shannon Singletary, Senior Associate A.D. for Health and Sports Performance. “By doing this we hope to not only provide our student-athletes with a better chance of winning on the field but also give them an opportunity to lead a healthy lifestyle.” Ole Miss Health and Sports Performance has strong working relationships with stu-dent health services, local physicians and Baptist Memorial Hospital-North Mississippi, which is located just miles from the Oxford campus. The department also taps into its own University of Mississippi Medical Center in Jackson for world-class treatment from multiple specialties including orthopedics, neurology and cardiology. Ole Miss’ athletic trainers begin treatment and rehabilitation as early as 6 a.m. and are available until the last student-athlete is finished with practice or competition. There are currently six athletic training facilities on campus with the two main athletic training rooms located in the Starnes Athletic Training Center and the Indoor Practice Facility. In addition, there are four satellite athletic training rooms located in Tad Smith Coliseum, Basketball Practice Facility, Gillom Sports Center and Oxford-University Stadium/Swayze Field. The main athletic training rooms are stocked with equipment such as digital x-ray systems, stationary bikes, laser therapy equipment, therapeutic modalities, underwater

treadmills and Biodex testing equipment. Each component is strategically designed to not only give the student-athletes the best care but also aid in returning them to com-petition as quickly and safely as possible.

The mission of the Ole Miss Strength & Conditioning program is to support every varsity sport in the Department of Intercollegiate Athletics, by propelling each student-athlete to maximize their athletic potential for competitive success. This is accomplished by integrating practical research-based training methodologies to increase power, strength, speed, mobility, agility and efficiency of movement for sport-specific tasks. Equally important as improving these qualities, is conditioning every student-athlete to be able to repeat these sport-specific tasks at a frequency required for competitive success while concurrently developing the mental toughness required to compete in the SEC and the NCAA.

Ole Miss student-athletes train in three state-of-the-art facilities. With access to these exceptional resources, the strength & conditioning staff at Ole Miss have an abundance of tools at their disposal to ensure that every student-athlete is trained to compete at the highest level. To further enhance their level of preparedness, the stu-dent-athletes are educated in nutrition by Faculty from the University of Mississippi’s Dietetics and Nutrition program, and are instructed in, and exposed to, various recovery strategies designed to ensure that they experience ongoing positive performance adap-tations in response to their training program(s).

The mission of the University of Mississippi Department of Intercollegiate Athletics is to advance the University’s role as a major comprehensive institution of higher learn-ing dedicated to teaching, research, and service. The Department will produce com-petitive and entertaining athletic teams, by recruiting qualified student-athletes, coaches and staff from diverse backgrounds, providing equal opportunities regardless of ethnic-ity or gender. The Department will prepare student-athletes to be productive members of society by assisting in their development of academic, athletic, social, and leadership skills within an environment which fosters integrity, sportsmanship, and emotional,

physical, and mental well being. Operating within the principles of sound fiscal management, the Department will sponsor athletic teams which reflect the interest of the citizens of Mississippi and pro-mote enthusiasm, financial support, cohesiveness, and loyalty within the University community. Demonstrating leadership in all decisions which impact the University, the Southeastern Conference, and the National Collegiate Athletics Association, the Department will conduct itself in an ethical and honest manner.

ATHLETICS DEPARTMENT MISSION STATEMENT

FACILITIES

Facilities can go a long way in broadcasting the position a program holds in the eyes of those around it. One can look at the facilities that encompass an athletics program to get an idea of the goals set for that sport.

At Ole Miss, the construction of a multi-million dollar rifle range and multi-purpose facility, in conjunction with the City of Oxford, says a lot about Ole Miss and the City of Oxford’s commitment to the sport of rifle.

It’s not the first time the “town and gown” have come together to provide a facility for use by both groups, nor will it be the last. Ole Miss and the city joined forces to build Oxford-University Stadium/Swayze Field in 1989.

Vision and attention to detail have been the focus of the new rifle range, which is located approximately 10 minutes from campus at the intersection of SR 7 and Sisk Avenue.

The range is one of the premiere rifle facilities in the United States, setting the standard for shooting facilities across the country.

Competed in 2004, the range features a 12-point shooting

range and serves the needs of the Ole Miss rifle program with a team meeting room and locker room. Electronic scoring targets provide quick and accurate scoring for the competitors and the facility also boasts an arms room for stor-age and an observation area for spectators.
