Woods & Water Alabama Invitational - Day One: Hometown Heroes hold down lead
2008 Woods & Water Alabama Invitational - Day Two notes
Once College Bass officials learned of Sherbert's situation, they ruled he could fish alone. His partner in the boat at for Day One became an ESPNOutdoors.com writer on assignment to observe him and write about the experience.
In addition to the slower current in the river, another tournament also being held on the river had attracted much more fishing traffic, especially in key locations.
Before the takeoff on Saturday morning, ESPNOutdoors.com and CollegeBass.com chased down the final five and asked them one question: What would it mean for you to win the national championship today?
They brought the latest in tackle, more than enough rods and reels and sported matching Hawkeye fishing jerseys. But the problem was they didn't have a boat.
But the lure never reached its target. Instead it found the back of Sanford's head, lodging several barbs through his Costa Del Mar sunglass holders and into his scalp.
These teams embodied the perseverance, dedication and passion that is a hallmark of the College Bass National Championship.

All five of those teams caught limits on Day Two, and all were in the top five after Day One, just in a slightly different arrangement.
