The 39th Annual Elks Hoop Shoot contest was a huge success! The 72 national finalists from across the country competed to win the title of top overall scorer in their division. The competition was fierce. Three finalists shot a perfect 25 out of 25. Kendal Cloninger from Gastonia, N.C., Lodge No. 1644, who’s perfect score landed her in first place in the 12- to 13-year-old girls’ division, claimed the Getty Powell Award for being the top overall female scorer.

Both Henry Westphal from Portland, Maine, Lodge No. 188, and Jerrik Rydbom from Blairsville, Pa., Lodge No. 406, shot 25 out of 25, so they competed in a shoot-out for the Getty Powell Award for best overall male scorer. After eight tense rounds, Henry, who competed in the 8- to 9-year old boys’ division, claimed the Getty Powell Award.
