In a hard-fought semi-final match Lafayette Gun Club edged out American Legion Post 295 by a score of 2465.8 to 2457.7. Lafayette took charge early, claiming a 1.6-point lead after the first 10 shots and building a 9.4-point cushion by the second string.

Sporter League Semifinal Results
Fontana MCJROTC secured a spot in the championship match of the 2025 National Sporter Air Rifle League by defeating Palm Bay MCJROTC, 2319.7 to 2297.2. Fontana MCJROTC took early control in kneeling, building a 16-point lead. Despite a slight narrowing in prone, with their advantage trimmed to 7.6, Fontana’s shooters answered in the final standing stage—often considered the true test in three-position matches—widening the margin to a decisive 22.5 points.
Pascagoula NJROTC clinched a 2277.5–2245 victory against North Brunswick AJROTC in the semifinal round of the Championship Tournament.

That advantage widened in the prone segment—a phase generally considered the most stable position—where they expanded their lead to 27.5.

Sporter Invitational Semifinal Results

The match was neck-and-neck through its early stages. Trigger Time held a slim 2.8-point advantage after kneeling, but Ramona battled back and the teams were evenly matched following the prone stage—a position generally considered the most stable in three-position air rifle. In the demanding standing segment, Trigger Time pulled away, building a final 14.2-point lead to close out the win.
Lafayette Gun Club turned in a second-half comeback to defeat Kofa MCJROTC, 2206.1 to 2194.3, in the semi-final round of the Postseason Champions Invitational Tournament.
