HOHENFELS, Germany — European marksmanship champion Jessica Walloch of Hohenfels finished 12th in the nation Sunday at the two-day 2009 Army JROTC Service Championship at Camp Perry, Ohio, Hohenfels coach Bruce Andrews reported Tuesday.

Walloch scored 1,154 of 1,200 possible points in the 12-round meet. Her total included three perfect scores of 100 which fueled the Tigers to a fifth-place finish in the team standings.

Other team members and their 12-round totals were Katelyn Bronell (1,135 for 25th place), Sarah Adams (1,135 for 28th place) and Emily Adams (1,132 for 30th place). Even though Bronell and Sarah Adams fired the same total, Andrews said, their individual placings were based on the number of "inner-10" shots for each.

Each of the Hohenfels quartet scored at least one perfect 100 in prone, Andrews said. Walloch fired two perfect rounds from the prone position on Day 1 and added a perfect 100 from the kneeling position on Day 2.

Patch marksmen, who edged Hohenfels by two points last month to win the European team title, also attended the national meet, Andrews said. He said the Panthers finished seventh overall.
