Lance Cpl. Blake Bibbins, native of Brooklyn, Mich. and member of the West team, concentrates down-range before releasing an arrow from his bow during archery practice for the 2012 Marine Corps Trials at Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, Calif., Feb. 17. Bibbins, a machine gunner, suffers from a traumatic brain injury, post-traumatic stress disorder and balance issues following an improvised explosive device blast Feb. 2, 2011 in Afghanistan. More than 300 injured Marines from the Wounded Warrior Regiment, in addition to veterans and allies, are competing in the second annual trials, which include swimming, wheelchair basketball, sitting volleyball, track and field, archery, cycling and shooting. The top 50 performing Marines will earn the opportunity to compete in the Wounded Warrior Games in Colorado Springs in May.
