The Azle High School bass fishing program is headed to the state tournament after two Hornet teams excelled at the regional event May 2 at Possum Kingdom Lake.

Competing against 222 teams from across North Texas, Azle anglers Parker King and Beckam Burt secured a state berth with a three-fish total of 7.28 pounds. Teammates Colt Roberts and Ryder Martin also punched their ticket to state, weighing in three fish totaling 8.64 pounds.
