Hillsboro Great-Oaks FFA Chapter 

In this event, students are challenged with what it takes to be a good livestock judge. Eyeing animals and knowing what good and bad qualities they have, as well as being able to identify confirmation in comparison to industry standards. The animals judged in this competition were cattle, sheep, swine, and goats. 

The Hillsboro Great Oaks FFA placed 26th. This team was made up of Brayden Cummings, Brianna Foxx, Claire Winkle, Camden Stroud, and Connor Yochum. Brayden and Brianna placed in the top one hundred, with Brayden at 39th and Brianna at 72nd. Congratulations to this general livestock team and good luck on your future judging endeavors.
