And the last team to compete was the Wool team who finished in 18^th place. Making up this team was Becca McCleskey, Javier Davila, Dakota Fariss, and Paige Williams.

“These kids represented Denver City very well,” noted instructor Brandon Freel. “Our meats and livestock judging teams were very close to qualifying for state as well. Both of those teams ended up 6^th and they only take the top five teams to state out of our area. Please congratulate these kids for all the hard work they have put in to get to this point.”
