 Cummings 'Leeds' After Murray

Who is Leeds, Ala.'s Charles Cummings? He's the guy leading the BassFan Rookie of the Year (ROY) Race two events into the FLW Tour season.

Cummings finished 63rd at the Lake Murray FLW Tour stop last week. Along with a 34th at Okeechobee, that means he's done better overall than Pennsylvania's Jason Knapp, who put a disappointing 87th at Murray on top of his 18th at Okeechobee.

Other Notable Movement

> A 15th at Murray helps Louisiana's George Jeane Jr. jump up to 3rd in the ROY Race.

> Florida's Thanh Le finished 17th and is now 4th in the ROY standings.

> Louisiana's Kevin Lasyone and Florida's Pierre Fortin both jumped up 10 spots thanks to good finishes at Murray. Lasyone finished 13th, the highest of any rookie fishing that event.

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).
