Through process, Ginny has reached unprecedented success. She jump-started her WVU freshman campaign by earning five medals (two open/three junior) at the 2015 USA Shooting National Championships. That performance helped propel her through her first collegiate season in leading all rifle competitors with the top air rifle score of 599/600 that she shot on two separate occasions. That all lead to a crowning moment during the NCAA Rifle Championships where she became the first freshman rifle shooter ever to win both individual titles in air and smallbore while leading WVU to their fourth-straight, and 18th overall, NCAA team title.
Success didn’t end there for the 19-year-old, however. She went to Olympic Team Trials three weeks later and pulled out a decisive victory in the Three-Position event over a seasoned and talented field. She earned a nine-point win having never competed in the event internationally. From NCAA Champion to Olympian, it's been quite a 2016 already.
A product of West Springfield High School in Virginia, Thrasher shot for her high school rifle team, but her love of shooting first came after hunting with her grandfather. She is the youngest of three children with two older brothers.
