N.D. (AP) – North Dakota’s Game and Fish Department says an annual state archery tournament continues to grow. More than 360 archers took part in the recent National Archery in the Schools state tournament in Bismarck.

Coordinator Jeff Long says participation was up 9 percent from last year, despite the fact that a major snowstorm was bearing down on the state.

The high school state championship team was from Griggs County Central. Hankinson took top honors in the middle school competition, and Barnes County North won the elementary school division. The overall male and female champions were Spencer Brockman of North Sargent and Lauren Moser of Medina.
