鈥淚n the tournament press release following an event, I don鈥檛 highlight the success of the 鈥榣ocal teams鈥� versus everyone else, because it鈥檚 my job to be impartial,鈥� Turner said. 鈥淚 do, however, make the top local team the focus of the press release for the following year鈥檚 tournament.鈥�
The account in the Times two weeks ago did not say that former Kamsack resident Vaughn Binkley of Greenwater Lake and his son-in-law Glen Becenko of Kamsack placed third in the competition.
鈥淭heir combined weight of 12.74 lbs. was just 1.23 lbs. out of first place,鈥� Turner said. 鈥淰aughn and Glen took home a cheque for $1,500, plus $100 in gift certificates from the Iron Grill Steakhouse as the top local team.鈥�
