Audrey Gogniat: Fast Facts at Patriot Rifle Conference Tournament
2/12/2025 | Rifle
OXFORD, Miss. – Following her historic weekend at the Patriot Rifle Conference Championship, Ole Miss rifle's Audrey Gogniat is in line to become one of the best Rebels in program history.
The Le Noirmont, Switzerland, native fired the best individual aggregate score in Ole Miss history with an 1197 mark. It's the highest among all NCAA shooters this season and set the best mark in Division I collegiate rifle since at least 2014-15.
To do that, Gogniat broke her own Ole Miss smallbore record with a 597 mark, as well as becoming the second Rebel to ever fire a perfect 600 in air rifle. In total, Gogniat missed only three bullseyes on the weekend while recording 99 center shots.
Gogniat's 597 is tied for the best smallbore performance by a collegiate shooter since at least 2014-15. There have been nine instances of a 597 score. The first instance was by Henrik Larsen of Navy on Jan. 19, 2018. Gogniat is the seventh different athlete to accomplish that feat.
Gogniat joined Ole Miss legend, Lea Horvath, as the only women in program history to shoot a perfect 600 in air rifle. Horvath has done so four times, her most recent being against Murray State earlier this season on Oct. 13, 2024. It's the 27th time in the NCAA since 2014-15 an athlete has achieved perfection in air rifle. Gogniat and Horvath made Ole Miss the only team in the PRC with two athletes to shoot perfect scores this season.
She became the first Rebel in program history to secure the top spot in both events of a conference tournament, which includes the aggregate scoring in the regular round of competition.
She earned the top spot in both events after the preliminary round and proved to be the best shooter in the country during both championship rounds. Gogniat leapt into strong starting contention after shooting 10.9's in both of her first shots of the events. From there, she outshot all seven other competitors in both rounds to sweep the title.
Gogniat has averaged a 592.8 smallbore score in her first four collegiate appearances. In air rifle, Gogniat is averaging 598.8, and has only missed five bullseyes in her first 240 career shots.
Gogniat led Ole Miss to a second-place team finish, which ties the program record for highest finish in a conference tournament. The Rebels put their best foot forward with Gogniat's help, as the team beat the program record in team aggregate scoring with a 4746. Ole Miss also set the program-best smallbore score of 2364 in the same meet.
The Rebels have something special brewing in the Swiss native. Rebel fans will get their final opportunity of the season to watch Gogniat in action in Oxford as Ole Miss takes on PRC rival TCU and Murray State on Saturday, Feb. 15. The teams will toe the line at 9 a.m. for the first relay, followed by the second relay at 1:30 p.m.
