Memphis Rolls Past Army Behind Another Record-Breaking Performance
Nov 15, 2025 | Rifle
MEMPHIS, Tenn. – No. 6 Memphis Rifle closed its fall schedule in emphatic fashion Saturday afternoon, taking down No. 15 Army, 4,732 - 4,647, while setting yet another smallbore program record and tying the school's all-time aggregate mark.
The Tigers posted a 2,349 in smallbore - surpassing the previous mark for the third time this season - then followed with a 2,383 in air rifle to equal the program's 4,732 aggregate best. Memphis set the previous records in smallbore and aggregate on October 12 against No. 13 Akron.
Memphis swept the top four spots in the individual standings, led by Emmet Bodrogi's dominant performance. Bodrogi won the match with a season-high 1,187 aggregate (591 SB / 596 AR), posting 92 centers. He has placed top-two in each of the last four matches, including three individual titles.
Gabriela Zych finished close behind in second with an 1,185 (588 SB / 597 AR), including a match-best 597 in air rifle. Katrina Demerle took third at 1,184, while Kenlee Ewton placed fourth with a 1,172.
"We are super happy with how we wrapped up our semester today, shooting another program record in smallbore and tying the aggregate record we shot earlier in the semester," said head coach Morgan Wilson. "We've been incredibly consistent in smallbore over the last few weeks and that's been a weakness of ours in the past.
"We haven't shot scores this high in the fall before, so this has laid a really great foundation for us going into the spring. A break over the holidays will be great for the team to get a chance to refresh and come back ready to keep pushing in the spring."
In smallbore, the Tigers claimed the top three positions and four of the top six, highlighted by Bodrogi's winning 591. Zych and Demerle followed with matching 588s, while Megan Jaros added a 582 to place fourth.
Memphis continued its dominance in air rifle by sweeping the top five. Zych led all shooters with a 597, followed by Bodrogi and Demerle at 596, Sophie Cruz with a 594 and Ewton with a 593.
With the win, Memphis completes a statement fall campaign and enters the winter break with momentum before returning to action in January.
