The duo’s limit of five bass weighed in at 15 pounds, 15 ounces, with Nathaniel Lear and Adam Puckett of Murray State winning at 18-1 in a field of 148 two-angler teams. Bryan had four other teams in the top third of the standings: Griffen Hopkins and Rob Lindsey (21st), Conner DiMauro and Cole Sands (23rd), Bailey Fain and Preston Kendrick (26th), and Andrew Fisher and Bennett Kudder (42nd). Bryan’s top-10 streak dates to June 2019.
