"I'm very proud of this group of students and the progress they have made as a team this fall,” said Lane Halfmann, Instructor and Livestock Judging Coach. “It’s not always easy to find time to put in the extra work but they have done it and now it is nice to see it paying off for them. I’m really looking forward to the spring and seeing what else they can accomplish.”

After the break, competitions will resume in January with the National Western meet in Denver, Colorado.
