Arkansas' Billy McCaghren claims 2009 Rookie of
the Year
By Doug Grassian
SYRACUSE, N.Y. — After a slow and steady
season of progression through the ranks of nine
first-year BASS pros, Billy McCaghren of
Mayflower, Ark., was officially named Bassmaster
Elites Series Rookie of the Year after Day Three
of the Ramada Champion's Choice, the regular-
season finale at Oneida Lake.

McCaghren, 35, surprised front-runner Matt
Herren during the regular-season finale, breaking
Herren's six-tournament grip on the ROY points
lead. A solid showing of 25th at Oneida propelled McCaghren to first place among rookies
as Herren stumbled, finishing 76th.
Along with the win, which is based on Toyota Tundra Bassmaster Angler of the Year points,
McCaghren also looks good for one of the 37 Elite Series qualifying berths for the 2010
Bassmaster Classic, set for Feb. 19-21 on Lay Lake out of Birmingham, Ala., also based
on AOY standings. Heading into Day Three on Oneida, he was 32nd in the
standings,....CLICK FOR MORE OF THIS STORY!
