After title win, Kansas State’s bass fishing program may now be unrivaled

Kansas State angler Kyle Alsop put the finishing touches on a stellar career, and he hopes the tradition of winning will continue for years to come.

The senior from Overland Park cemented his legacy as one of the sport’s best college anglers just two weeks ago, becoming the first angler to win multiple college bass fishing national championships.

He accomplished the feat alongside teammate Travis Blenn, of Westmoreland, at the YETI FLW College Fishing National Championship on Alabama’s Lake Wheeler. It was just the second tournament they’ve fished together.

“It all started with Ryan Patterson in 2012, you know, he won that FLW championship on Lake Murray the spring before I started school,” Alsop said.
