BIS student on Archery Tournament

  Congratulations to Gustavo Barcellos on his first Archery Tournament appearance. After a lot of success in doing archery at BIS Gustavo (12th grade) is taking on new challenges in Archery. This weekend he participated in an official tournament sponsored by the International Field Archery Association. Even though he was shooting with a different bow than he is is used to practice at BIS, and at a much further distance (18m) he did really well. Coach Batista (archery coach at BIS) is proud of Gustavo and hopes to see more BIS students participating in such competitions. Next tournament will be in March. Let's go Eagles!
