A Cedarville-Mackinac Island Archery Tournament was held Thursday, April 24, at Mackinac Island Public School. Students from both schools' physical education classes participated. Mackinac Island won both divisions, with Megan Hill of Cedarville taking top honors for the girls and Fuller Cowell of Mackinac Island taking top honors for the boys.

In the boys team competition, Mackinac Island won 437-426. In the girls team competition, Mackinac Island won 153-133. Maximum number of points possible was 500.

Next school year, archery players from Mackinac Island will travel to Cedarville to continue the competition.

Both schools received archery equipment through a Department of Natural Resources grant. Safari Club International picked up the remaining cost of the equipment for Mackinac Island, and Islands Wildlife did so for Cedarville.
