NEWBERRY, Fla. (NBC Sports/Eric Scatamacchia) — Four archers secured their spots on the 2016 U.S. Olympic archery team at the final stage of U.S. Olympic Team Trials in Newberry, Florida.
Brady Ellison, Zach Garrett and Jake Kaminski will make up the U.S. men’s archery team in Rio. At the 2012 Games, Ellison and Kaminski won team silver alongside Jacob Wukie, who finished seventh in qualifying.
Garrett will be making his first Olympic appearance in Rio. The 21-year-old, currently ranked seventh in the world, came on strong in 2016 to finish second in qualifying.
On the women’s side, Mackenzie Brown qualified for her first Olympics by winning the women’s competition. She was the only female archer to earn an Olympic spot at the U.S. trials as the U.S. women have not yet qualified a full team.
