The 20-year-old Brook- lin resident was in a foreign country, com- peting against some of the best marksâmen in the world and found out at the last minute he could flot even'use bis own equipment. Spratley, a firat year student in architectural technology at Scar- borough's Centennial College, still emerged from the Benito Juarez Games in Mexico with a uilver medal i prone shooting. Actually Spratley tied for firat place wlth teamma 'te Mark Clepp, at 5M out Of 60, but due te a compli- cated tle-breaklng sys- tem, Clepp, from Guelph,, was awarded the gold medal. He also picked up firat place at a meet i Fort Benning later in the week. Spratley's moments of glory were flot yet complete. It was also announced that he had been selected te receive a 196 achievement award from Ontario's Tourism and Recreation Department. He was one of more. than M00 athletes i this province to, be honoured. "Id was pleased because I was honoured along with my coach, Pat Vamplew, whos a world-class athlete. It's very important for the public to recognize tCanada's amateur ath. letes, " he said. Spratley is setting bis sights on the Pan Arn Games this August in Caracas, Venezuela. "I have international experience s0 I think I have a realistic chance of making the team," he said. Trials for the Cana- cian team wiIl be held in early July i Kitchener. Spratley also plans te try out for the 1984 Olympic team, but bis goals extend beyond Los Angeles, site of the 1984 Olympics. Maitaining that "it takes about 10 years toi develop an iternational medallst, Spratley la' gearing bis training schedule for the 1908 Olympics, iSeoul, Korea. Spratley, who bas .only, been shootig for five years, picked up on the sport after some urging by bis older brother, a member of the cadet rifle teamn at Pickerlng High Sehool. .He joied the team and has neyer looked back sice. "I played- soccer, football and volleybali but as shooting became more important, I cut thse other sports out, " he recalled. As he progresses into tougher -competition, Spratley knows that he must maitain top phy- sical condition. "My heart rate and body fat have to be down, and I need well- toned muscles and good reflexes,"' he said. "It's important for me to channel the adrenalin because I have to hold the rifle stili, he added. Spratley, who is usig a .22 calibre rifle built 20 years ago for a former Canadian title competi- tor, pays bis own travel expenses for the most Part, but does receive an occasional govern- ment grant. He is hopig te land a corpor- ate sponsor to cover some of bis coots. He still holds the national prone record of a perfect 600 score. This is also an- unofficial -world record. With the constant tra- velling to competitions, he bas lost Urne at Cen- tennial, but says the teachers have been very cýo-operative and sup- porting. "They're bebind me 100 per cent, " he said. "I get bebind but I'm given extra time te. do my assignments."1 Spratley has come a long way in a few years but to realize bis goal, he wil ultimately have to defeat competiters from Russia and thse United States, who usually dominate the sport.
