The Martin High School archery team captured the 2026 Western National Championship last month at the NASP Western National Bullseye Tournament in Sandy, Utah – again.
The victory marks the team’s third consecutive national title, continuing Arlington ISD’s dominant run in the sport.
Led by head coach Alex Villanueva, twenty-four Martin archers competed in the national tournament, which draws top student archers from across the western United States. The multi-day tournament was held at the Mountain America Expo Center and featured competition at both the individual and team levels.
Among the standout performances was Martin junior Nhi Hoang, who placed fourth overall in the female division, finishing with a score of 292 and 22 tens. Her strong showing contributed to the team’s overall success and highlighted the depth of talent on the Martin roster.
The Western National Bullseye Tournament serves as one of NASP’s premier competitions, offering student archers an opportunity to showcase their skills on a national platform while demonstrating focus, composure and sportsmanship. Participation requires qualifying through state-level competitions, making the championship a significant achievement for every team involved.
With another national championship added to their quiver, the Martin archery program continues to set the standard for competitive excellence. Congratulations to the archers and coaches!
