A few weeks ago in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, at the
2007 Pan American Games, 22-year-old Haley Dunn won the Gold Medal at the Women's Olympic Skeet event. Not only is that an accomplishment in itself, this is Dunn’s her first go at the Pan American Games as a USA Shooting Team member. Dunn is drawing a bead on bring home the Gold at the 2008 Olympics in Beijing. She’s also a full-time student at the University of Columbia-Missouri and has recently claiming the title of 2007 Women's National Champion at the ACUI Intercollegiate Clay Target Championships. And she also works with the
Scholastic Clay Target Program, an organization that introduces shooting sports to kids. Dunn is considered by many to be the US's best chance for Olympic Gold in the Women's Skeet event next year in China. Let’s keep an eye out for her.

Actually, Nike was looking at sponsoring Kim Rhode. We posted about this past May but I haven't nary a whisper from Nike. May Dunn will change Nike's mind.
