Bree Riley is a sophomore at Graves County High School and has been a member of 4-H Shooting Sports since eligible at age 9. Bree is a talented and dedicated young woman with a bright future ahead of her and we are so proud of her talents in the Graves County 4-H program. Her achievements in 4-H Shooting Sports are stellar. Bree has taken home the state championship in 4-H Shooting Sports State Competition many times, including the following championship titles in addition to many other state placings:

2019 – State Champion in .22 Pistol

2020 – State Champion in .22 Pistol

2020 – State Champion in .22 Sport Rifle

2020 – State Champion in .22 Target Rifle

2021 – State Champion in .22 Pistol

2022 – State Champion in .22 Pistol

This year, over 990 youth competed in the state competition. It is a large event with very high standards of excellence. Thanks to Transportation Cabinet District 1, we were excited to celebrate Bree’s legacy of 4-H State Shooting Sports Championships with a state road sign near the new Graves County Extension Office building, located at 4200 State Route 45 N, Mayfield, KY, 42066. Mayfield and Graves County is proud of Bree's accomplishments. She is a 4-H Shooting Sports Teen Coach and a recipient of the 4-H Silver Honor. Shooting Sports has given Bree the opportunity to be a leader by assisting youth, mentoring families, and leading safety classes. She is a role model to other youth in the club and helps them try new things in shooting sports.
