PARIS – University of Utah graduate Alexis Lagan had her medal hopes quickly dashed for the 10m Air Pistol event on Saturday.

Lagan finished 25th in the qualification round, missing the 8-person cut to move on to the final.

The Nevada native was consistent in the qualifier but just couldn’t keep up with the top scorers.

Lagan finished with series’ scores of 95, 96, 93, 93, 96, and 97.

On the bright side, Lagan improved upon her Olympic debut at the 2020 Tokyo Games. She finished 38th in the 10m Air Pistol in 2020, as well as 18th in the 25m Pistol and 16th in the 10m Air Pistol Team event.

Lagan will have one more shot at earning her first Olympic medal in Paris.

On Friday, August 2, the former Ute will compete in the 25m Pistol event which was her best individual event in 2020.

However, Lagan has found most of her success in the shorter range in recent competitions. At the 2023 World Championships, Lagan finished 12th in the 10-meter and 40th in the 25-meter.
