... that Rosemary Miller tried out
skeet shooting in 1961, won her state's championship in 1962, and then won a state shooting championship all but two years for the rest of her life?
Article is new enough, long enough, and within policy. The first two parts of the hook are verified, but I am having trouble understanding the last part of the hook. The wording is confusing. We need a new hook.

4meter4: What I am trying to communicate is that, after she first entered the championship in 1962, there were only two years for the rest of her life that she did not win a state shooting championship. Can you think of a better way to word it? I also added a QPQ.
