Rutherford County’s high school BASS Teams had an outstanding performance in the recent state fishing tournament. During the event, held on Douglas Lake in East TN, three RCS teams secured a spot in the Bassmaster High School National Championship.
From Eagleville School:
John Mullins and Jayden Douglas
Jacob Sledge and Ethan Hargrove
From Siegel High School:
Carter Hazlett and Christian Ferguson
The High School Championship, the highest level of bass fishing for high school students, is set to take place on Lake Hartwell in South Carolina this July.
This is the first time Eagleville has had more than one team qualify for the championship.
RCS wishes these anglers the best of luck as they go to showcase their talent on the national stage.
