Jalen has been an active club member throughout his time at SGA, and has been a strong anchor to our barebow team and division. Starting archery in his second year of practice, Jalen recalls walking with his friends and noticing a random flyer for free and beginner workshops. Despite the rainy conditions, Jalen decided to give it a try and was able to shoot a grand total of 6 arrows over the course of 2 arrows and figured – if he didn’t join the club he’d never get himself out of his room otherwise. 

During his time in the club, Jalen’s favorite aspect of being a part of Sun God Archery has been the people he’s met. From being able to meet new people outside in the field to doing activities and social events with the club both on and off the field, the community has remained a strong reason for why Jalen has shot with the club for so long.

His one advice to anyone interested in trying out archery: “Go for it.”

After graduating, Jalen plans to head into industry and work. We wish him the best of luck and congratulations on graduating!!
