Reaching the halfway point of the second trap Shotgun Olympic Trials 2012 Olympian Corey Cogdell took the lead from Janessa Beaman. Cogdell shot a 45 to Beaman’s 44 to pull within a point going into Monday’s final. The final went poorly for Beaman as she got only one point to Cogdell’s four as Cogdell took a two point lead. Ashley Carroll shot a 46 and then won the final and pulled within three points of Cogdell. While Cogdell may have the edge for the Olympic spot there’s no doubt Beaman and Carroll both have a shot at this.
In the non-Olympic qualifying men’s trap competition Dustin McGowen shot a 47 and Christopher Haire shot a 46. Both struggled in the final with McGowen grabbing just one point and Haire two. They finish day two with 350 points and a three point lead over two people who made a move on Monday. Casey Wallace was five points back and Ryne Barfield was six points back but Wallace scored a 49 and Barfield came in second in the final to move to 347.
