MORGANTOWN, W.Va. – The West Virginia University rifle looks to bounce back from its first loss this season when it hosts No. 10 Memphis at the Bill McKenzie Mobile Rifle Range inside the WVU Shell Building at 9 a.m. ET on Saturday.
Â
The match is the Mountaineers' fourth against a ranked opponent this season as WVU holds a 3-1 record in such contests. It is also West Virginia's second Great America Rifle Conference match, after WVU opened conference action with a 4750-4665 win over Army, and will look to move to 2-0 in the conference.
Â
WVU is 19-2 all time in the series against Memphis in a series that began in 2005. The Tigers come into the weekend with a 2-1 record, with their lone loss coming at the hands of No. 5 Ole Miss in their season opener.
Â
This season, the Mountaineers' 4744.4 aggregate average and their 2359.4 smallbore average lead the nation. Their air rifle mark of 2385 is the third best. The Mountaineers are the only program in the nation with an aggregate score over 4750, hitting a 4750 and a nation-leading 4756 during their last match. West Virginia also owns five of the nation's top 11 team scores this season.
Â
Individually, Oceanne Muller leads the country in aggregate score (1191.2) and air rifle (599.6). She has scored three perfect 600 marks in air rifle this season, setting the program's single-season and career mark. Griffin Lake has averaged a nation-leading 592.2 smallbore total this season and has the top result with a 598, tied for the second-best score in NCAA history in the event. Â
Â
The Mountaineer duo have both shot the highest aggregate total this season with matching 1195 aggregate scores.
