On April 12, 2008, 5th through 8th grade archers
from Montana schools gathered at the East Helena Middle School for
the State Archery Tournament. Sheridan's victory excited the whole
team who are both supportive and competitive with each other.
Last year at the state tournament in Stevensville, MT the 5th/6th
grade boys division was dominated by Sheridan's Eric Browne in 1st
place and Jacob Huffield in 2nd place. Now in 7th grade, the boys
again dominated their division (7th/8th grade). This year Huffield
took 1st place by scoring 266 points and Browne took 2nd with 259.
The friendly rivalry allows them to be proud of their team effort
while striving for their own personal perfection.
Other medals gained by the Sheridan team included Seth Green, 2nd
place 5th/6th grade boys; Brittany Van Dyck, 2nd place 5th/6th grade
girls; and Shilo King, 3rd place 7th/8th grade girls.
