B.A.S.S. announces first high school combine
Wednesday, May 19, 2021
B.A.S.S. officials announced today that 100 high school anglers will have the opportunity to showcase their talents in front of colleges during the inaugural Abu Garcia Bassmaster High School Combine, which is set to debut Oct. 15-17 on Wheeler Lake in Decatur, Ala.
This is something we have dreamed of for years, said Hank Weldon, senior manager of the B.A.S.S. College and High School program. B.A.S.S. is constantly looking for ways to grow the High School and College platforms and give young anglers opportunities to excel not only in the sport but also in the industry. What better way than to give college coaches a chance to see all of the skills these high school anglers possess and possibly award scholarships?
