(Atlantic) Atlantic archery athlete Miraylie Stuart had her future seemingly planned, with her sights set on attending an agricultural institution. That plan changed, however, after she visited the Buena Vista University campus.
Stuart was first introduced to archery in seventh grade during the COVID-19 pandemic, when she was homeschooled and spent most of her days inside. She said she disliked being confined to the house until an email inviting student-athletes to try out for the Atlantic archery team arrived.
