Wheaton-Warrenville South's Boat 2 was the only Chicago-area team to medal with a third Saturday at the Illinois High School Association's state finals for bass fishing at Carlyle Lake. Brandon Carstens, Nathan Vasslos and Kian Edmer gave the Tigers their second medal in bass fishing — WWS finished second in 2013 — with four fish each day, totaling 16 pounds, 13 ounces. Teutopolis won its first state title in bass fishing with 19-3. Carlyle Boat 1 was second with 17-13. It was a tough tournament with only 50 boats weighing fish and 14 of those only weighed one.
