Twenty college teams from the SEC and ACC conferences and nine of the top high school teams in the Southeast, competed in the National Guard FLW College Fishing Nationals. Each day, teams launched from Ebenezer Park to fish the waters of Lake Wylie in search of the best bass.
Team weigh-ins were held at the Newport Wal-Mart.
