MANKATO, MN – Bethany Lutheran College announced today that it will add a competitive clay target team to its co-curricular program.
Clay target is a popular sport which involves shooting a firearm at cylindrical flying objects known as clay targets. Hitting the target requires skill, timing, and hand-eye coordination. Clay target competition is conducted at local clubs, national and international competitions, and all the way through to the Olympics where it’s known as skeet shooting. The sport is safe, exciting, challenging, and fun. Competitive clay target participants generally obtain their state’s hunter education certificate and complete the Student Athlete Firearm Education (SAFE) Certification program.

March 16 shattered Asian America. That day, a white shooter murdered eight people in Atlanta spas. Six of the victims were Asian women.
This incident wasn’t surprising given the United States’ history of anti-Asian racism, such as the Chinese massacre of 1871 or the Page Act of 1875, which aimed to protect the US from “immoral Chinese women.” March 16 also fell neatly in line with the surge in anti-Asian hate crimes this past year, with the New York Police Department reporting a 1900% increase in 2020.
