New York-native shooting champion returns home with gold
ENDICOTT, NY (WIVT/WBGH) – An Endicott native returned home from a national shooting competition with golden hardware.
Albert Fiori competed, and won a gold medal in the national trap shooting competition in West Palm Beach last week. Fiori has competed in Olympic style parashooting events before. Fiori was first diagnosed with an auto-immune disorder and nerve disease a few years ago.
Over 100 athletes competed, and had to shoot a total of 250 targets in the qualification round just to make it into the finals.
Fiori made it to the finals and took home first place in the 'senior trap' division of older competitors.
