His accomplishments in competitive shooting include 1st place awards at the National level in the sporting place and trap divisions, and two state level Grand Champion titles from the San Antonio Stock Show Rodeo and the Houston Stock show rodeo. “I am extremely excited about the opportunity and most of all thankful to my parents for their love and support, said Ramirez.”
