Dormont-Mt. Lebanon Club wins NRA na�onal �tle

The Dormont-Mt. Lebanon Sportsman’s Club didn’t win the Pi#sburgh and Suburban Rifle League championship earlier

this year, losing to the Frazier-Simplex Rifle Club in a 'ebreaking match.

But Dormont-Mt. Lebanon, which is located near Eighty Four, found out this week that it took home a bigger prize.

Dormont-Mt. Lebanon’s Green team won the NRA Na'onal Indoor Smallbore Team Championship with a score of

4,478.

Team captain Dean Trew shot a 1,140 to win the Pennsylvania championship, while Cassidy Fairman shot a 1,135, Tom

Benedict a 1,105 and John Funk a 1,098.

Trew supplanted Fairman as the state champion. Fairman, a 2016 graduate of Indiana High School, won that 'tle in

2015 with a 1,139. Fairman did bring home another honor, as her score was good enough to win the women’s na'onal

championship.

Trew’s score was seventh overall among men and earned him third place in the Master’s Division.

“I was very surprised,” said Trew. “Cassidy and everyone on the team shot well, and I was fortunate enough to have a

good performance on that day. I was just hoping we could break into the top three.”

It was Dormont-Mt. Lebanon’s second na'onal championship. The club won the na'onal conven'onal 4-posi'on 'tle

in 2004 but had never before won the indoor 3-posi'on championship, which is honored with the Chief Army Reserve

Trophy.

In winning the 'tle, Dormont-Mt. Lebanon got a li#le revenge on their local rival, not that Frazier-Simplex had a bad

showing.

Frazier’s Gold team finished fourth overall with a 4,444. Former na'onal champion John Husk fired a 1,133 to rank

14th in the na'on, while Tom Morley had a 1,119, Sylvia Dreistadt a 1,087 and Zachary Nicolella a 1,105. Nicolella won

the individual 'tle in the PSL earlier this year.

The two local teams always push each other.

“When we were shoo'ng, we were more focused on bea'ng our Washington County rivals, Frazier-Simplex, than we

were worrying about a na'onal ranking,” Trew admi#ed. “They’re a really great group of people over there in

Wolfdale; they’ve got a phenomenal organiza'on and we love bea'ng them.

“They’re like the New York Yankees of rifle shoo'ng. We might be the Pirates.”

They also became just the fi!h team to win the Chief Trophy, which was first awarded in 1997, joining the U.S. Army

Marksmanship Unit, which has won it seven 'mes, the Black Hawks Rifle Club, which has won six, and Palmyra Rifle

Team and University of Alaska Fairbanks, which have won three each.

In the Conven'onal Na'onal Indoor Championships, DML Gold finished third with a score of 1,570-108X.

Trew again led the way with a 396-31X, while Ray Harvey (394-29X), Sarah Fink (391-23-X) and Ma#hew Lovre (389-

25X) made up the rest of the team. The Buffalo Sharpshooters won the championship with a 1,578-106X.

Frazier-Simplex Gold was sixth at 1,565-97X. Husk, who was second master class na'onally with a 793-63X, led the way

in that event with a 393-24X. Morley (392-27X), Nicolella (392-26X) and Dreistadt (388-20X) again made up the Frazier

team.

Dormont-Mt. Lebanon’s Silver team finished ninth in the event with a 1,544-92X. Benedict, Miles Ford, Funk and Kevin

Dufford made up that team.

In addi'on to Husk’s second-place finish na'onally, Harvey was fi!h, Trew seventh and Dreistadt eighth in the master

class. Lovre finished second in the sharpshooter class.

CMP Carbine Match

July 10, 2016

The beast of combat rifles (a.k.a. The M1 Carbine) came out of its safe, saw its shadow, and thus we will have

15 more weeks of shooting. Thus goes the experience of the nine marksmen participating in the Annual M1

Carbine Match. Great weather! Great Camaraderie! Just a fun little match in sending 40 rounds downrange

for score. After 12 years of competition shooting here at DMSC, John Tupta finally hit the top of the charts

with a 349-3x. This certainly lends credence to the adage that given enough time, even a blind squirrel will

eventually find a nut. Nice shooting to all! The following cutoff scores will apply during the 2016 National

Matches: Gold 356+, Silver 342-355, Bronze 328-340, T – Shirt 400 or below.
