Smallbore Rifles

♣ Unheralded and unsung, the Victoria smallbore shooters surprised a lot of people by taking second place behind Canterbury. In fact, the team nearly caused one of the biggest upsets of tournament, finishing only five points in arrears.

Victoria had four representatives in the twelve-man NZU side, M. Borch, P. Whitmore, B. Ward, and G. Harvie. Definitely a heartening effort from a team that did much better than expected, probably the only one to do so at that.

Canterbury 2367-162, 1; Victoria 2362-152, 2; Lincoln 2302125, 3.
