On January 11, the Stroudsburg Rifle team took a trip to Southern Lehigh to take on the State Individual Qualifier. Five players shot top 25, and three made it to states.
Marksmen William Tonnies, ’25, Gavin Dunkelberger, ’25, Isabella Lisnik, ’25, Maxsim Lamberton, ’25, and Anthony Ortiz, ’26, all made the top 25 in the qualifiers.
Tonnies, Dunkelberger, and Lisnik were the highest placers, at seventh, eighth, and ninth places respectively. These three qualified for states and are traveling on Thursday to compete.

The team’s big three have consistently been the top scorers for Stroudsburg and have been the winning factors for multiple matches. Bringing in multiple perfect shooting nights each, these established captains led the team all year and have made their senior seasons memorable.
So far, the Mountaineers have been very successful, boasting an 8-2 regular season record, having two All-Star shooters in Tonnies and Dunkelberger, and also making a deep postseason run with their state qualifiers. They look to continue this run on Thursday, January 13 weather permitting.
