2011 Jr. State Champions
Ryan Orsargos (11-14) and Matt Hoover (12-15) will represent Pennsylvania at the 2012 National Guard Junior World Championship to be held at Atlanta next year.
Ryan, with 6 fish totaling 13.56 lbs., beat out Zack Bezak who weighed in 5 fish for 11.25 lbs. including a 2.87 largemouth, the tournament lunker.
Matt weighed in 6 fish for 12.06 lbs. besting 2010 winner Fisher Stewart who also boated 6 fish for 11.27 lbs. however Fisher received a .50 lb. penalty for a dead fish (the only one of the tournament) which masked just how close the finish actually was.
Congratulations to Ryan and Matt for a job well done and we wish them the best at the 2012 World Championship.
