The Northeastern State University Fishing Team is partnering with Operation Freedom Outdoors, connecting students with veterans as part of a friendly bass fishing tournament at Lake Tenkiller on April 3.
Cody Smith with Operation Freedom Outdoors said Northeastern students approached the nonprofit about the NSU Fishing Team getting together with a group of veterans for a day of fishing as part of a friendly tournament.
