The Bass Fishing Club at WMU is having one of its most successful years as an RSO, and doing something that hasn’t been done before at the university: sending two of its members to the 2017 Bassmasters Team Championship on Norfolk Lake in Mountain Home, Arkansas, in early December.
Collin Jump, the director of the Bass Fishing Club and one of the members going to the National Championship, says this is a big deal for WMU.
“Going to the National Championship will probably give Western a little more recognition,” Jump said. Along with his brother, Tyler Jump, they finished first out of 60 teams in a regional championship, earning them a place in the Team Championship.
