Two brothers from South Aiken High recently netted an award for their fishing skills.
Brothers Brycen Williamson and Landon Williamson have been named the 2018-19 Anglers of the Year Points Champions for the South Carolina Palmetto Boat Center High School Team Trail, sanctioned by the Bass Anglers Sportsmans Society.
Brycen will be a senior, and Landon will begin his freshman year at South Aiken High School in the fall.
Members of the Aiken County School Board recognized the brothers and other members of local fishing teams at its regular meeting July 16.
Brycen and Landon earned points to beat out more than 250 teams per event.
Their accomplishment earned them a berth in the Bassmaster High School National Championship in August at Kentucky Lake in Paris, Tennessee.
The brothers also qualified to compete in the Fishing League Worldwide National Championship held on Pickwick Lake in Florence, Alabama, where they made the semi-final round as second in state.
