Historic fishing trip

Escambia Academy’s bass fishing team made school history last weekend with a third-place overall finish in the high school division and a first-place finish in the junior division of the Alabama Bass Nation Tournament held at Tensaw Delta. The win secured an invitation to the state tournament next June at Lake Logan Martin, where EA will compete for a possible invitation to the national tournament.
