This weekend the Butler County High School and Butler County Middle School Archery Teams traveled to the Warren East State Warm-up Bullseye and 3D Tournament. Both teams did an amazing job taking top honors in the bullseye tournament. High School hit their highest score of the season with a 3401, placing them 3rd in state rankings. Congrats to all of the archers. Next weekend they will travel to Louisville, Kentucky.

Kentucky will host the nation’s largest annual school archery tournament March 14-15, 2025, as more than 7,000 student archers from nearly 400 schools compete in the Kentucky National Archery in the Schools Program (NASP) State Tournament.
