The Cornell archery program, known as the Nock Busters, was only able to send three athletes to represent the team at a recent competition in Cadott, Wisconsin on February 21st. This marks the second time this season the full Cornell archery team was unable to attend a meet due to a limited number of available spots.

Why it matters

Archery is a growing sport at the collegiate level, and the Cornell team has established itself as a regional powerhouse. However, the inability to bring the full roster to competitions puts the Nock Busters at a disadvantage compared to rival programs that can field complete teams.

The details

The Nock Busters typically field a larger squad, but logistical constraints prevented the full team from making the trip to Cadott. As a result, only three Cornell archers were able to compete, limiting the team's chances of a strong overall performance.

  • The competition took place on February 21, 2026 in Cadott, Wisconsin.
  • This marks the second time this season the Cornell archery team was unable to bring its full roster to a meet.
