With a team of three archers, the VI Archery team competed with great determination that displayed the pride of the Virgin Islands. With the lost of a secure practice area due to Hurricane Irma, and Hurricane Maria, the team has been practicing in the E Brewley Softball Field. While sharing a field with person traversing the field  between the archers and targets, and other distractions, the team pushed on working towards the goal of securing a spot for the CAC Games.

 

While they missed the mark by one or two spots, the team will receive the final decision for CAC games in May.
