ONE LAST TOURNAMENT: With freshman teammate steading to shoot his arrow, senior captain Marianna Torres DeLine releases her arrow during a 15-meter round at the 2021 National Archery in Schools Program National Archery Tournament. The tournament was Torres-DeLine's last NASP tournament.  “The fact that I was able to compete at that level was insane.” After four years of working to get the McCallum archery program, Torres-DeLine finished her senior year competing in her first national competition with her team. In her debut at nationals, Torres-DeLine scored 270 points to finish second among McCallum archers. She recorded eight bullseyes. Reporting by Sophie Leung-Lieu.
