Dorsten Leads Air Pistol in November and Overall in CMP’s Monthly Matches

November 27, 2021

Civilian Marksmanship Program▸The First Shot▸Dorsten Leads Air Pistol in November and Overall in CMP’s Monthly Matches

After completing the closing Monthly Match of the season on Nov. 13, the Civilian Marksmanship Program (CMP) is now able to release the final results of the culminating 2021 Monthly Match League.

Over the seven Monthly Matches fired in 2021 (February, March, April, May, September, October, November), a total of 1,355 entries flowed through the air gun ranges of the Gary Anderson CMP Competition Center in Ohio and the CMP South Competition Center in Alabama. Monthly Match events include a Junior 3×10 and 3×20 Air Rifle Sporter, Junior 3×20 Air Rifle Precision, 60 Shot Air Rifle Standing and 60 Shot Air Pistol.

The Monthly Match League names the top three outstanding participants from an average of each individual’s Monthly Match scores from repeat attendance. The first three places receive plaques for their performances, while places one through five collect monetary prizes based on the number of entries. The Most Improved competitor, with the highest margin of score progression, is also recognized.

Johnathan Dorsten was the overall winner and High Junior of the 60 Shot Pistol event of the Monthly Match League.

Leading the 60 Shot Pistol category out of 163 total entries was Johnathan Dorsten, 18, of Bryan, Ohio, with an average score of 547.00. Dorsten was also High Junior. Living only an hour-and-a-half from Camp Perry, Dorsten was able to attend five of the seven Monthly Match events in 2021. 

Dorsten initially started competing through his local 4-H Shooting Sports program. In 2018, he was asked to represent his team in air pistol at the 4-H Shooting Sports National Championships in Grand Island, Nebraska. Although he had never touched an air pistol before the match, he still managed to reach second place – trailing first by only four x’s over the field of nearly 50 competitors.

Dorsten also led the 60 Shot Pistol Match at Camp Perry in November.

“I tried it and realized I kind of had a knack for it, so I stuck with it,” he said. “I like seeing myself put in the effort and the success I can achieve from that. It always feels good knowing I went out and did my best in a match and have a score that shows it too.”

Though his run with the Monthly Matches is over for now, he’s planning to return to Camp Perry in December to compete in the USA Shooting Winter Airgun Championships as well as the Camp Perry Open air gun event in May 2022.

“I love this range,” he said of the Gary Anderson CMP Competition Center. “It’s kind of the first range I started shooting at, with it being so close, and it’s definitely world class. Of everywhere I’ve gone, this has always been my favorite range to shoot at.”

For his Monthly Match League win, Dorsten earned $150.

Reaching second in 60 Shot Pistol was Lawrence Gale, 53, of Copperhill, Tennessee, with an average of 533.25. Gale received $100 for his performances. Taking home $75 and the third place spot was David Maryakhin, 50, of West Bloomfield, Michigan, with an average of 532.5. The Most Improved athlete was Evan Beach, 12, of Mason, Michigan, who began firing at the first few Monthly Matches with a Progressive Position Pistol (PPP) stand for added stability and eventually moved on to competing without the device.

Emme Walrath, who led 60 Shot rifle in the League, also led the event in the November Monthly Match. Bremen Butler earned second.

Claiming the overall win and $300 of prize money in the 60 Shot Rifle category was High Junior Emme Walrath, 15, of Kenosha, Wisconsin, with an average score of 626.78. Walrath also cleared second overall in 3×20 Precision (for $200) behind Katrina Demerle, 16, of Hamilton, Ohio, who was the second highest competitor in the 60 Shot Match. Demerle earned $250 each for her 3×20 win and 60 Shot second place finish along with the High Junior honor in the 3×20 match. Attaining third in both the 60 Shot and 3×20 Precision events was Bremen Butler, 17, of Fort Wayne, Indiana. Butler received $150 for 60 Shot and $125 for the 3×20.

Most Improved of 60 Shot Rifle was Katelyn Leibengood, 8, of Green Springs, Ohio. Zach Bishop, 14, of Tiffin, Ohio, was the Most Improved title holder in 3×20 Precision.

The CMP Monthly Matches are open to all ages and experience levels and feature a mix of air rifle and air pistol competitions.

Devyn Chapman, 15, of Piedmont, Alabama, produced the highest average and the High Junior title in the 3×20 Sporter competition with 529.25. The overall finish netted Chapman $200. Bethany Shirley, 14, of Monroe, Georgia, landed in second for $150, as Brandon Edwards, 17, of Millbrook, Alabama, took third for $100. Most Improved 3×20 Sporter athlete was Adalynn Anstead, 9, of Green Springs, Ohio.
