The Melissa High School Bass Fishing team competed in the Texas High School Bass Association Regional Championship at Lake Possum Kingdom on May 2, coming home as the Regional Runner-Ups. The team competed with four teams of two against the top 222 other teams from 3 divisions in the Region. The top 67 regional teams qualify for the state championship, with two of the MHS teams qualifying.
Coming home as the Regional Champion individual team, Colton Robinson and Nate Bodnar won 1st place in the tournament with a 23.54 LBS catch. This catch was almost a whopping 2 pounds heavier than the 2nd place catch and helped the team qualify for the State Championships!
The State Championships will take place at Lake Texoma on May 30-31. Congratulations to the Melissa Bass Fishing team on this outstanding achievement, and good luck to our Melissa High School students who have qualified for the State Championships!
