Sport Spotlight: Rifle with Rachel Sprague More Than My Stats

    • Mental Health

In this fifth episode of Sport Spotlight Rachel Sprague (on IG @spraggot) joins us to answer commonly asked questions for beginners who want to start watching shooting in the Olympics- specifically Rifle! Rachel is a current athlete at UT Martin! This is a sport that definitely isn't as mainstream in collegiate athletics, and I'm sure grateful Rachel took the time to breakdown rifle terminology, rules, and what to look for at the 2020 Olympics!

Questions Asked In This Episode:

1. Can you explain what Shooting as an Olympic Sport looks like and touch on the different categories within that?

2. Can you explain how scoring works for Rifle at Olympics?

3. As someone who competes in the sport- why do you think it's such a compelling sport to compete in and also to spectate?

4. What are some of the terminology we should know or expect to hear if we will be watching shooting for the first time in this olympics?

5. What events or athletes are you looking forward most to watching in Shooting as the Olympics progress and why?

You can keep listening here on our podcast, or watch the video live on our instagram at @morethanmystats in our IGTVs. To get your sport featured DM us on instagram! After this, don't forget to listen to our first parts already released on judo, golf, swimming, and rugby! Our next episode on volleyball will be released tomorrow!
