Congratulations Levi Loe and Trace Loe on a great finish at Bassmaster Open at the Red River this past weekend! It was a hard weekend for fishing, but they placed 18th out of 97 boats and earned a berth to Bassmaster Nationals at Lake Hartwell in July. There are four opens each year with teams competing from all over the United States. The top 25 earn a chance to compete on the National Stage in July with the best in the country. Go Panthers! Both the Panther fishing teams are headed to Millwood this week for the State Tournament, then both will travel to South Carolina for Nationals in July.
Seniors, remember to turn in your laptop and charger to the tech department office on campus!
