HATTIESBURG, Miss. — The Pearl River archery team capped its indoor season with a strong showing at the 57th USA Archery Indoor Nationals, highlighted by Easton Shoemake claiming first in Fixed Pins U21 Men.

"It was an encouraging tournament," head coach Kyle Moss said. "With it being a national tournament, the competition level was a lot higher. Sometimes that didn't quite show in the placements. It went from a one-day tournament to three days, and we still held up pretty well in the rankings. It was very encouraging."
