Gators win it all
Gipson and Wercinski lead University of Florida to come-from-behind victory at the 2010 FLW College Fishing National Championship
By Gary Mortenson - 12.Apr.2010
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. It took more than a year for the first-ever National Guard FLW College Fishing National Championship to finally unfold. But in the end it was clearly worth the wait. During a tense and nerve-wracking final day weigh-in, the University of Florida eked out a dramatic 9-ounce victory over rival Texas State University.
With both teams standing on stage, Texas State University needed only 6 pounds, 13 ounces to walk away with the tournament title. As the University of Florida team of Jake Gipson and Matthew Wercinski looked on, the Texas State University team of David Cosner and Jay McCollum, who entered the day as the top qualifiers, weighed in their three-fish catch and awaited the official announcement.
"Do you know CPR?" joked Cosner during the weigh-ins finals moments.
Finally, the announcement came on the big electronic board 6 pounds, 4 ounces. The Texas State University team had fallen short by a mere 9 ounces, handing the University of Florida Gators the inaugural FLW College Fishing National Championship title.
