Rutherford County Schools’ archery programs claimed 12 team and individual titles at the National Archery in the Schools Program’s 17th Tennessee Championships.

Hosted by the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency, the tournament took place March 12-14 at Miller Coliseum in Murfreesboro. More than 1,900 students from nearly 100 schools across the state competed.

Each student shot 30 arrows, 15 each from 10 meters and 15 meters with a maximum score of 300. The top team and top 10 individuals in each division earned automatic bids to compete in the 2025 NASP Tournament to be held May 8-10 in Louisville, Kentucky. At-large bids were awarded to those who qualified. 

Teams competed in target and 3D competitions.

Below are the RCS teams and individuals that placed in the Top 5 for their division. For tiebreakers, higher placement goes to team/archer with most 10-point shots. To see a full list of final standings, visit https://nasptournaments.org/TournamentExplorer.aspx
