The US won two golds in Medellin this week and they both came on the men’s side. After the compound men’s team won gold on Saturday it was Brady Ellison‘s turn to do so in the recurve individual final on Sunday. Ellison smoked #9 Miguel Alvarino Garcia of Spain 7-1 to grab his first individual medal of the year. Ellison also made it two medals in two events for the US after Zach Garrett‘s silver in Shanghai. The women’s recurve team of Erin Mickelberry, Lauren Clamon, and Anna Miscione didn’t do as well in the bronze medal final where they were shutout by Mexico.
Overall this was a strong weekend for the US though their 2-5 record in final matches was a bit disappointing. The next World Cup stop is in Antalya, Turkey starting June 12th.
