Scroggins Leads After Two B.A.S.S. Events





With 2 of 6 pre-field-cut BASSMASTER Tour events down, Florida's Terry Scroggins leads the BassFan.com Rookie of the Year (ROY) race. Scroggins moved up from 10th in the points last week thanks to a win at Okeechobee. Not bad for a rookie.

Another B.A.S.S. rookie -- Chad Morgenthaler -- finished 5th at Okeechobee, which moves him up to 6th in the points from 27th last week. Last week's leader, Jason Barber, slips to 10th after a poor finish at Okeechobee.

So far the most consistent rookie performance has been by Oklahoma's Jeff Reynolds, who's turned in two Top 20s finishes so far.

BASSMASTER Tour rookies continue to do well -- three Top 5 finishes by rookies so far this season -- partly because there are so many of them, from B.A.S.S.'s expansion of the tour field this year.

This week FLW Tour rookies get to rack-up some points.

> Note: Danny White (no hometown given) was list as a rookie by B.A.S.S., but has not accumulated points (presumably has not fished). As a result, he is eliminated from the BassFan.com Rookie of the Year Race.

About the ROY Race
The BassFan Rookie of the Year Race/Award recognizes the best rookie in all of tour-level professional fishing for the current year or season. Unlike the league rookie races, only true rookies are eligible: To qualify as a rookie for the BassFan race, a tour angler cannot have fished the pro (boater) side of any Bassmaster or FLW tour/series-level event before.

  • BassFan Rookie of the Year Race points are calculated using a methodology loosely similar to the BassFan World Rankings (points based on finish with bonuses given for winning and finishing high). Only regular-season events count. Championships do not.
     
  • The BassFan Rookie of the Year Race was created in 2002 as the first rookie race in professional bass fishing. Like Rookie of the Year awards in all sports, it recognizes top-performing newcomers to the professional ranks.

Everything on BassFan.com, including BassFan Radio and the various BassFan ranking methodologies, is copyright BassFan LLC except where noted (notably photo credits).
