10:30 A.M. — Bowie Teenager Is A Sweet Angler

Apparently, teenage girls like Bowie's Caroline Sweet are pretty good fishers.

Granted it's hard to find in the ever-exciting Lake Norman Times (what is there other than fishing?), but apparently there is a Junior Girls Championship division of fishing. Wow. We never knew.

The transcript: "Mooresville's Hayley Hammond - the winner of the North Carolina Junior Girls Championship in Greenville, N.C., last June - then lost to Caroline Sweet of Bowie, Md., 3 and 1 in singles during the second day.

However, the Carolinas team won four of eight singles matches and split a fifth to edge the team from Virginia and Maryland 6 1/2-5 1/2."

At least Sweet did her part. Question: How do you win a fishing head-to-head match 3-1? Hmmm.
