SOUTH BURLINGTON — Bristol’s Abe Camara is this year’s Knights of Columbus Vermont Free Throw Shooting Champion for the boys’ 13-year-old division. He won the title in a competition this past Sunday, March 13, at Rice Memorial High School.

Camara was one of several winners of earlier Addison County contests who fared well in the state competition, which the Knights of Columbus resumed after a two-year break due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Contest organizer and Deputy Grand Knight Gary Russell of Bristol reports the following local kids earned runner-up finishes:

  • Hayden Lutz in the boys’ 14-year-old division. Lutz is a former 11-year-old state champ.
  • Leah Tierney in the girls’ 13-year-old division.
  • Bowen Lutz in the boys’ 12-year-old division.
  • Ayden Wingfield in the boys’ 11-year-old division.
  • Grant Rossier in the boys’ 9-year-old division.
