This year, Ryan challenged himself to place in the Top Ten at Nationals; since meeting his goal, his next venture is to continue on the path to the Olympics by getting involved with Junior Olympic Archery Development (JOAD). According to their website, JOAD, which is part of Team USA, helps develop kids and teens into top-notch competitors and progresses them into an advanced level of archery.
“Our goal for him is to offer him the support he needs to reach his goals and, one day, go to the Olympics,” expresses Renee Waldman, Ryan’s mom and co-
leader of the Bullseye 4-H Club, which is specifically catered to archery students.
While Ryan has been recognized for his efforts all across the county, he remains grateful, humble, and dedicated to his future. “I’d like to thank my parents, family, coaches, and teammates,” continues Waldman, “but most of all my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.”
