Brianna Walter signed her LOI/NLI with the University of North Georgia in early December to continue her academic and athletic career. The standout Precision Rifle athlete is nearing the conclusion of a record-breaking 2023-24 season.
“It was such an honor to be able to sign collegiately for rifle,” says Walter. “My sister is also on the UNG rifle team, so I am very excited to be on a team with her.”
While having her sister in the program was a huge draw, Walter felt the support from UNG was a big reason why she chose to head to Dahlonega.
“The team and the coach have been very kind to me and supportive of me in my rifle career. The University of North Georgia itself has sold me on its many majors and nearby campus making it a convenient and obvious choice for me.”
Walter has broken the school record several times for a 3×10 match, and has been a part of the top-four scoring matches in school history. The rifle team is undefeated heading into this weekend’s State Championships.
“I would describe the 2023-2024 school year as a very good stepping stone to prepare me for the rigor that may come with being a college athlete, but I am very excited and prepared to take on the challenge,” adds Walter.
Walter is the fifth TFS student-athlete to sign an LOI this academic year, and she’s the first rifle athlete in Tallulah Falls history to compete at the next level. She will be honored with all other senior signees in May 2024 at the second annual Next Level Signing Ceremony.
