From the nominees, one male and one female were chosen to receive a $1,500 scholarship to the school of their choice. A Committee was chosen to review the scholarships and make a decision on specific qualifications. Ashley Foster and Noah Mulaski were selected to receive the $1,500 scholarships. The scholarships are funded by the Two Rivers Ford Open Bass Tournament hosted by the Wilson County Sports Council.
