On the first day of round robin matches at the US Olympic Archery Trials Brady Ellison went 7-1, best of the day, and passed Zachary Garrett to take a half point lead. Sean McLaughlin recovered him form enough to stay in third and has a half point lead over Jake Kaminski and point and a quarter over Jacob Wukie. The battle for the final spot to make the cut into the top eight is tight with Victor Wunderle’s 3.25 point lead over Collin Klimitchek cut to just a point and a quarter.

On the women’s side Mackenzie Brown still holds a five point lead over Lanola Pritchard. Pritchard now holds a 2.5 point lead over Ariel Gibilaro for third. Khatuna Lorig is seeing her hopes of going back to the Olympics fading as a 2-6 day saw her fall from fourth to sixth. She trails the final potential Olympic spot (remember only one is guaranteed, the next two are possible Olympic spots) by 6.25 points.

Wednesday will feature the final seven head-to-head matches before the field is cut to eight.
