BARWON Heads surfer Max Bassett has been crowned the Under 18 State Champion following the third round of the Victorian Junior Titles at Phillip Island over the weekend.<\/p>\n

Bassett, who finished the third round with a 11.50 on the final day of action behind Somers surfer Arieh Peterson, did enough to take home the overall championship after two top two finishes in the opening rounds.<\/p>\n

The win was an emotional one for the Bellarine local, as he snared enough points to earn the overall first place finish.<\/p>\n

“It was fun waves, and even with the tide dropping out making conditions tricky, there were still a few out there,” Bassett said.<\/p>\n

“It’s pretty emotional being in my last junior event but it has been a good experience.<\/p>\n

“It’s cool to take out the state title as there are a lot of good competitors competing this year so it’s pretty good to get above them.”<\/p>\n
