7-15-10 The English Sweep at Lakenheath!
The English swept the top three spots at the recent World English Championships in Lakenheath, U.K., with Ben Husthwaite (202) taking first place honors followed by Paul Simpson (201) and George Digweed (200). Even with a top US finish of 15th place by Scot Robertson, combined TeamUSA scores were clearly good enough to win the overall Waktare Trophy, with 2723 combined points to second place England's 2678 and third place Wales at 1295. The Senior/Open team finished second to the English by a scant 3 points (857 to 860!) while others in the US contingent did well in several team and individual categories. Congratulations to all shooters representing the United States! Full results here.
