My goal is to make the 2012 Olympic team and prove to myself that I can accomplish the highest achievement an athlete can make. Winning that Olympic gold in four years and being able to stand on the podium and cry during the national anthem.

Jennifer Nichols

USA Archery

Jennifer started shooting archery at the age of nine after her father bought her and her siblings compound bows from Wal-Mart for Christmas. The Nichols family would shoot in the evenings in their backyard as a family activity they could all do together. That same year, they were introduced to the local Junior Olympic Archery Development (JOAD) Club.

Victor Wunderle

USA Archery

Vic began shooting archery at the age of five.  Both his father and grandfather shot archery for hunting and recreation.  For him, there is just something about anything that shoots, whether it is a slingshot, BB gun, or bow and arrow.  His first bow was made from a limb off of the willow tree in his back yard.  His father gave him an arrow which he taped a piece of cloth around the end so it wouldn't hurt anyone.  He would run around the yard all day shooting at trees with his newly acquired toy.
