SAN ANTONIO, TX (March 10, 2021) – In just three days, the third double points event of the season, the Bass Pro Shops Big Bass Bash presented by Berkley, is set to be contested on Kentucky Lake in Henry County and Paris, TN. The latest update to the School of the Year rankings includes a college Championship, two major college events, and one school run event.

The University of Montevallo continues its dominance atop the rankings by earning a total of 1,840 points since the previous update. By amassing nearly 2,000 points over the course of one month based on several top finishes, Montevallo expanded its lead over second-place from 915 points to a whopping 1,840 points now.

Other movers into the Top 10 include Bryan College who moved from 13th place to 6th place with several top finishes. McKendree University is looking to make history and become the first-ever school to three-peat as School of the Year winners.
