Austen Smith

After shooting for only about seven years, Austen Smith qualified for a spot on the Olympic team. Before she burst onto the big stage at the senior level, Austen won World Championship silver in 2017 and bronze in 2018 in the junior skeet event, which she rounded out with a junior individual World Cup gold and junior mixed team gold in 2019. She is coached by Vincent Hancock—probably a good reason for the meteoric rise in her skills and accomplishments.
