Vanessa Donato became the first student in school district history to go to college with a shotgun shooting sports scholarship.
After considering a number of college shotgun shooting programs, Donato chose to accept an offer from Lindenwood University in St. Charles, Missouri. The Lindenwood Lions are an NCAA Division 1 team and considered one of the most prestigious shooting programs in the country. Donato began shooting on the North Ridgeville High School trap team when she was in the eighth grade.

Doylestown native William Browning started shooting trap when he was only six years old. Since then, he has won state, regional, and national honors as a member of the Buckeye Chippewa youth shooting team at the Copley Trap Club. 
While he is proud of all his accomplishments to date, the 2022 Chippewa High School graduate has his sights set even higher. His goals are to become a member of the U.S. Army Marksmanship Unit and to compete for Team U.S.A. shooting in the Olympics. He’s well on his way to accomplishing both.

J. Michael Wengerd, of Dundee, may be only 33 years old, but he has been breaking clay targets and earning top shooting honors for more than 20 years. Wengerd was a hunter when he was young, and started shooting trap in the fall of 2002 when a family friend, Aden Kaufman, first took him to a shoot in Coshocton. Kaufman was the owner and operator of Great Eastern Gun Club in Walnut Creek.
