WEST POINT, N.Y. – Following the Great American Rifle Conference Championship this past weekend, the conference announced its postseason awards where the duo of Mark Amdahl (Sr., Albuquerque, N.M.) and Michael Zanti (Sr., Norfolk, Va.) garnered All-GARC recognition while Clarissa Layland (So., Granbury, Texas) was named Navy's GARC Scholar Athlete of the Year selection.
 
Additionally, head coach Mike Anti was selected as the GARC Coach of the Year, marking the second such honor of his career after earning the award in 2019.
 
Amdahl was named an All-GARC Honorable Mention in the air rifle discipline, marking the second All-GARC honor of his career. In GARC matches this season, Amdahl averaged 592.14 points per match in the air rifle en route to earning his second all-conference award. 
 
Zanti was named a First-Team All-GARC selection in the air rifle and aggregate disciplines along with being a second-team honoree in smallbore. The trio of awards marked the first such honors in Zanti's career after the senior carried GARC match scoring averages of 585.71 in smallbore, 595.14 in air rifle and 1,180.86 in the aggregate category.
 
Layland was selected as Navy's GARC Scholar Athlete of the Year for the first time in her career after totaling an average of 580.14 points per GARC match in smallbore, 588.71 in air rifle and 1,162.71 in aggregate.
 
Anti was voted as the GARC Coach of the Year for the second time in his career after guiding the Midshipmen to a record-breaking campaign that included breaking the program scoring record in each of the three scoring categories. Additionally, Anti oversaw the Mids cracking the 4,700-point plateau three times after not eclipsing that mark prior to this season in the 60/60 era (since 2005).
 
For their efforts under the direction of Anti, the Midshipmen earned a bid to the 2022 NCAA Championships that are slated to be hosted by Air Force March 11-12. The bid was Navy's 29th in program history along with being its third selection under Anti.
 
The Mids placed fourth at the GARC Championship with a final tally of 4,707 points, while Marleigh Duncan (Fr., Wake Forest, N.C.) was crowned the conference's smallbore individual champion.
