CCHS senior, Amanda Server and SMHS sophomore, Jimmy
Weismuller will take their high-powered trap shooting skills to
the National Junior Olympics in Colorado Springs, CO over July
30-Aug 1, where they will compete with roughly 200 other
scholastic clay target program (SCTP) shooters from across the
nation. Up for grabs will be potential positions on the US
Olympic Trapshooting Team.
Both Server and Weismuller qualified for this prestigious event,
along with 27 other Tennessee students, from competitive trials
held at the Holly Ford Shooting Grounds in Paris, TN last June
17-21.
Four other Cumberland County SCTP shooters also competed
at this event but failed to qualify. They were Andy Carey, Seth
Petterson, Sara Stallworth and Meghan Server, Amanda’s
younger sister.
A score of 105 broken targets out of 125, (105X125), was
required to qualify for both men and women. Ms. Server’s score
of 105X125 barely qualified, but was second best among all
women and good for the silver medal. The women’s gold medal
score of 106 was posted by Holly Hodge of Paris, TN. Server
and Hodge were the only women to qualify in the state.
Weismuller shot exceptionally well in posting a 114X125 which
placed 7th among the men. Jacob McBride from the McKenzie
HS Caba Crushers SCTP state championship squad fired the
gold medal score of 121X125.
Ms. Server is the daughter of Doug and Maria Server of
Crossville, and has been shooting competitively for three years.
Her credits also include being named to the Tennessee women’
s all-state SCTP team for 2009, 2nd high women score of
143X150 at this year’s SCTP state championships and winning
this year’s Tennessee State Class C singles championship with
a 197X200, in competition with a field of over 200 of the top men
and women shooters in the state. Amanda competes with a
Beretta Silver Pigeon II.
Jimmy is the son of James and Denise Weismuller of Crossville
and has been a member of the SCTP team for three years.
Earlier this year as a freshman, he was promoted from the
junior varsity squad to the first varsity squad where he assisted
the team to a 6th place finish in SCTP state competition. He has
also competed in local and state competitions and will likely
make all-state honors before completing his high school career.
Jimmy competes with a Khan.
Amanda and Jimmy have spent more than three years in
developing their shooting skills and both are worthy of the high
recognition this trip will offer, however, competing at this event
is very expensive. To help defray some of the costs, send
