Catherine Green fired a 581 to finish seventh and Mattie Brogdon rounded out the Frogs' counters with a mark of 573.

Scherer continued her dominance at the rifle range with another first place finish in air rifle, firing a 596 to help the Frogs to an impressive 2358 team score. Brogdon claimed second place with a score of 588, while Green tallied a fifth place finish after shooting a 587.
