SCTP’s Myles Walker of Elkhorn, Wisconsin earned top honors in Men's Trap at the 2015 Spring Selection Match, earning his way to his first-ever World Cup in Gabala, Azerbaijan on August 14. The match was held in Fort Benning, Georgia, April 9-12. Walker was one of the four athletes who made the National Junior Team last summer as a result of his performance at the SCTP National Championships for international disciplines held in Colorado Springs. Walker's Spring Selection Match win came on the heels of his having helped earn Lindenwood University its 12th straight Association of College Unions International (ACUI) Collegiate Clay Target Championships in March. Walker was the leader coming in to this Selection Match and maintained that through another 250 targets, two finals, and a shoot-off. Congratulations to Myles Walker, and good shooting in Azerbaijan!
