Wayland teen Connor Ball on target as a skeet shooter

Boston Globe 8/15/13; Wayland teen Connor Ball on target as a skeet shooter. While the best in the world can be successful 100 times out of 100, so too could a teenager who picked up the sport a few weeks ago. Paul Giambrone III won his first skeet shooting world championship at age 16, becoming the youngest ever to win a title (2001). Widely considered the best alive at aiming a shotgun at clay targets, he has captured 13 world championships. But he thinks Connor Ball, an 18-year-old, eye-patch-wearing prodigy from Wayland who first held a gun two years ago, could beat him.
