Area sports notes: Bryan duo second in college bass nationals
Teams from Bethel University in McKenzie, Tennessee, finished first and third Saturday in the 2019 Carhartt Bassmaster College Series National Championship presented by Bass Pro Shops on Chickamauga Lake out of Dayton. Between the Bethel boats were two-day leaders Cole Sands and Conner DiMauro from Dayton's Bryan College, and a team from McKendree in Illinois also qualified for the Bassmaster College Classic Bracket event Aug. 27-29 on nearby Watts Bar Lake. There the four duos will become eight individuals vying for a spot in the 2020 Bassmaster Classic on Lake Guntersville. Sands and DiMauro's five-bass limit Saturday totaled 14 pounds, 4 ounces, giving them 58-8 for the tournament, but Carter McNeil and Cole Floyd closed with a 16-3 limit for 59-11 and Bethel's second set of Carhartt Bassmaster national champions in a row. The 2018 winners, Cody Huff and Garrett Enders, were third this time with 55-2 on a final-day 18-2, and McKendree's Tyler Christy and Trey Schroeder had the best last round, 18-7, for 50-15 and a 2-ounce edge over Murray State's Jordan Hartman and Will Gentry for the last College Classic Bracket spot. Tennessee's Robert Gee and Saxton Long finished sixth in the 12-boat finals with 50 pounds even.
