Two Cariboo archers will be representing their zones in the upcoming BC Winter Games in February.
Hudson Huska (15) and Heidi Schaer (16), both from Williams Lake, will be competing for Zone 8 in archery in the Compound Division.
The two archers competed in the 60-arrow playdowns at the Trails in Quesnel earlier this month.
Hudson is in the youngest qualifying bracket, and after a slower start by shooting just below his average score after 30 arrows, he improved his score by nine points to beat out every other competitor there in his first indoor shoot.
Heidi dominated her class, being the only archer who shot 60 straight arrows without shooting below a 9 score, hitting a three-inch, or eight-centimeter-diameter circle on the target on every single shot, from 20 yards away.
Both Heidi and Hudson will represent Zone 8 in Trail in February 2026.
