Kansas State fishermen Kyle Alsop and Taylor Bivins won the 2016 Carhartt Bassmaster College Series National Championship on Saturday in Campellsville, Kentucky.
Alsop and Bivins finished the three-day event on Green River Lake with 36 pounds, 4 ounces.
The K-State team was the only one in the field of 89 teams to bring in more than 10 pounds every day.
“It was a grind,” Bivins told Bassmaster.com. “We had to fish really slow the whole time.”
Bivins graduated from K-State in May with a degree in wildlife and outdoor enterprise management.
Alsop is a senior in engineering.
