Tyner Elementary reported that on February 8, 2025, the Tyner Archery team split up to compete in two different tournaments. Some Cardinals shot at South Laurel while others participated in the Farristown Match. 
Coach Summers reported, "Everyone did great, and we had several personal bests. Four shooters scored over 200! Sadie Ratliff shot a 247 (PB), Easton Lakes shot a 240 (PB), Jake Madden shot a 231, and Josie Scalf shot a 200 (PB). 
The Cardinals' top five shooters at South were Sadie Ratliff, Easton Lakes, Jake Madden, Wyatt Metcalf, and Chandler Wagers. 
The top 5 shooters for the Cardinals at Kingston were Josie Scalf, Aubrey Goforth, Ryland Champagne, William Ward, & Gemma Root. It was a personal best for every shooter at Kingston. 
Wyatt Metcalf increased his score an impressive 105 points in just one week. Sadie increased by 60, Josie by +52, and Easton Collins by +38 points this week. This was the first match for several of our shooters, who all did amazingly. We have made significant improvements in just a short time. Unbelievably proud of every single kid. It's a great day to be a Cardinal. We cannot wait until we have an entire team on the line together."
