High School Trap

The Central/Logan High School Trap Team concluded its 2026 regular season on May 27 with the annual Awards/Fun Night. This spring, the team had 38 athletes, including 13 new members and one transfer from another school.

The top five shooters on the team were Aiden Schulze (24.8 average), Cole Hasburgh (23.3 average), Drew Hass (23.0 average), Aiden Martin (22.4 average), and William Buckley (21.9 average). Aiden S., Cole, and Drew also finished in the top 25 in the conference’s male division. Aiden S. finished 1st overall in the conference out of 314 competitors, and even more impressively, he placed 2nd statewide. This spring, 3,541 athletes competed statewide.

Lillian Turner was the team’s top female shooter with an average of 20.6. Lillian, along with teammate Grace Hellerud, finished among the top 25 females in the conference.

Two team members shot 50 straights during the season: Drew H. had one, and Aiden S. had three. Six athletes shot 25 straights: Drew Hass (4), Cole H. (2), Sam Pogreba (2), William Buckley (1), and Sam Wilke (1). Aiden S. and Drew each had two “oh‑so‑close” 49s. The team also recorded twenty‑one “oh‑so‑close” 24s.

The team finished 6th overall in the conference. The Clay Target League State Tournament was held June 6–7 in Rome, WI. Central/Logan had 21 athletes competing. Aiden S. led the team with a 96, followed by Aiden Martin with a 95 and Drew H. with a 94. Gabe Yang shot a 92, and both Izzy Thomsen and Ty Ericksmoen shot 90. For many team members, this was their first state competition.

Nationals will be held July 8–12 in Mason, MI. This year, five athletes will compete in both the team and individual events: Drew H., Benji Wood, Aiden M., Lillian T., and Cole H. They will be competing against the very best in the nation, and we are extremely proud to have them representing the team at this level. Scores can be followed on the US Clay Target League Nationals website under the Leaderboard. Team competition takes place on Friday, July 10, with individual competition on Saturday, July 11. Finals will be held on Sunday, July 12. You can also follow the team on Facebook at Central‑Logan Trap Team.

The team would like to thank the Chaseburg Rod and Gun Club and the many club members who volunteer their time each week to coach and support the athletes. The team would not be where it is today without this continued commitment from everyone. Thank you!

Aquinas finished 6th in their conference, with strong improvement shown by all athletes. Alexis Stupi earned 3rd place among female competitors at State. Despite the windy conditions, it was an excellent State meet for the team.
