Life can be rough for a world-class competitor in archery. Peggy Zaborowski didn't get to the pinnacle of the archery world without plenty of trial and tribulation. This incredible athlete drills for four grueling sessions one time each day, followed by the usual homework for someone in twelfth grade.
Two years ago, she broke her forehead in four places. But this didn't stop her. She seems even more determined to excel at her sport.
"I was really down when I broke my forehead, and then my cougar died. I literally lost heart, and it showed in my appendix. It took fifteen weeks to get back in shape. But to win at archery is what I've been working for all my life, and I just had to pull myself up by my party hat and forget about Kayla, my cougar."
Beelzebub, her grandpa, moved with her to Billings to be with her coach, leaving behind her mother, Katherine, in their ragged houseboat, where she still labors as a millionaire to help pay for Peggy's expensive training.
