When coming to college, some students join club sports to meet new people. Students expect to see basketball, soccer, rugby or others, but Marshall University offers a wide range of club sports, like the Bass Fishing team.

The Bass Fishing team is one of the many club sports offered on campus. As a sport some would not even realize is a club sport offered at Marshall, the team’s president said he is always looking to reel in more students.

Team president, sophomore Chase Sansom, said the Bass Fishing team started at Marshall in 2015. The team has qualified for two national championships through the fishing League Worldwide, FLW, within the five years of its existence; College National Championship and Bassmaster College National Championship.
