CVCC Bass Fishing Competes at Big Bass Bash
March 17, 2021
The Catawba Valley Community College bass fishing team had a successful performance this past weekend competing in the 2021 Bass Pro Shops Big Bass Bash on Kentucky Lake.
A trio of Red Hawk anglers Hayden Lail, Spencer Black and Justin Eggers participated in the event, which featured four weigh ins after the first day of competition and three weigh ins during the second and final day of competition.
Catawba Valley Community College anglers Jeremy Dellinger and Nathan Smith clinched another national tournament berth for themselves and the Red Hawk program on Saturday with their 17th-place finish in the 2021 Carhartt Bassmaster College Series on Lake Hartwell.
Dellinger and Smith competed among a field of 260 teams, including three teams from CVCC, to earn their national tournament berth.
“All three of our teams at Lake Hartwell had solid performances,” said CVCC bass fishing head coach Angela Mayo. “Jeremy Dellinger and Nathan Smith made some great adjustments after day one and moved up the leaderboard on day two for a 17th place finish out of 260 teams. It’s great to have a qualifying team for the 2021 B.A.S.S. College National Championship so early in the season.”
