SAN ANTONIO--Lindenwood University of St. Charles, Mo., has claimed its fifth straight national title, topping Texas A&M, Kansas State and 35 other colleges at the 2008 Intercollegiate Clay Target Championships.

The four-day competition, held annually for the past 40 years, ended Sunday at the National Shooting Complex in San Antonio.

Events included international trap and skeet and American trap and skeet.

Shooters also competed in a five-stand sporting clays competition taped for upcoming broadcast on ESPN networks. Six airings are scheduled: June 13, 20,
