The 11-state field of teams
was led by Utah with a total weight of 335-15.
The Colorado State Team landed a total weight of 271-8 for the 5th
Place spot. In this new pro-am format,
which cuts the field for the third day, the Team Standings are totaled after
the second day, before the cut eliminates team members.
The
top boater and top co-angler from each State Team now move on to fish the Academy
Sports + Outdoors B.A.S.S. Nation Championship presented by Magellan Outdoors. The date and location of the National
Championship is to be announced.

brought in a 5-fish limit each day to achieve a total weight of 39-11 in the

followed by Ty Faber with 34-11, and Brandon Genova with 32-6. The rest of the team followed in order: Larry
Triplett, Garry Harner, David Flemming, Derek Phillips, Pete Acosta, Todd Gentzel,

17-13 and placing 16th place overall. Son Connor Santos chased Dad with 13-10
