Ole Miss Rebel Lea Horvath accomplished something Sunday that no other woman in NCAA rifle history has ever done.

In the sixth-ranked Rebels’ 4723-4717 against No. 9 Murray State, Horvarth scored a perfect 600 score in air rifle for the fourth time in her career becoming the first woman to accomplish the feat. She is now tied with Alaska Fairbanks’ Rylan Kissell for the most by any athlete in the NCAA.

Earlier, she tied her own school record in smallbore with a 594 as the team set the third-best mark in program history with 2358.

The Rebels now set their sights on a dual competition against Navy and Nebraska in Annapolis, Md., next week. Facing Nebraska will serve as the first conference competition in the Patriot Rifle Conference for Ole Miss.
