When the Dallas Cowboys released wide receiver Terrell Owens last week, I was foolish enough to think for a second the madness was finally over.

The width of a hair. That is the difference between absolute success and abject failure in the sport of rifle. Practicing in a plain, single-story, whitewashed building that looks like it houses air conditioning units rather than athletes, the members of the women's rifle team have been preparing for the biggest match of their lives at the first ever TCU-hosted NCAA championship.

The game-winning home run - it's the baseball player's dream. Except Horned Frog catcher Bryan Holaday's; he'd rather catch a shutout from one of his friends on the mound. "Catching a shutout, it's not just me doing all the things - it's everyone on my team that's working toward the goal," Holaday said. (0) comments
