Nursing student Kendal Nicely wins her second world archery title, beating a world record

Kendal Nicely, a nursing major, who began her archery career at the age of 3, won her second individual world title in the compound junior women's category in August. In the gold final in Legnica, Poland, she also beat the world record for the 15-arrow match with 148 points.

After winning three junior world titles (individual 2008, team 2008 and 2009), Nicely added two other medals on the occasion of the August 2011 World Archery Youth Championships: individual gold and mixed team's silver.

Nicely started the 2011 junior gold medal match with a perfect 30 and followed with a 29 to take a 2-point advantage after the second end. With another 10-10-10, Nicely secured a solid lead, and appeared to be chasing the world record match score of 147. She led 118-113 after 12 arrows and therefore needed to be perfect in her last end. She started with a 10, then another one just 'on the line'. She was a bit shaky with the release on her last arrow, but she caught a last 10 to clinch gold and a new world record with 148. .
