At the 2025 NSCA South Central Regional, held September 10-14 at Covey Rise Gun Club in Husser, Louisiana, Team Winchester and Team White Flyer delivered standout performances in multiple events.

Connor Daniel secured the runner-up honor in the Main Event with a score of 180/200, also clinching the junior champion title. He added a FITASC junior title with an 88/100 finish. Veteran shooter Mike Wilgus continued his impressive season, earning the Veteran Champion title in the Main Event with 178/200, along with top Veteran finishes in the Prelim (97/100), Five-Stand (89/100) and FITASC (90/100) events.

Desi Edmunds claimed third in the Prelim Lady category with a score of 88/100, while Joe Fanizzi took FITASC runner-up with a 92/100 performance.

“Competing against the best shooters in the country, Team Winchester delivered outstanding performances across all major events,” said Jason Gilbertson, Senior Director of Marketing for Winchester Ammunition. “The drive from the team is stronger than ever as we head into the final regional of the year before NSCA Nationals at the end of October.”

The NSCA South Central Regional marked the fifth stop on both the 2025 NSCA Championship Tour: Powered by Winchester and the 2025 Winchester Ladies Cup. The Winchester Ladies Cup continues to build momentum as the first sporting clays competition created specifically for women, offering added payouts based on cumulative scores across Five-Stand, Main Event and FITASC.
