Madison Hudgins of Mannford FFA Exhibits Grand Champion Market Steer at 2014 OYE

Madison Hudgins of Mannford FFA Exhibits Grand Champion Market Steer at 2014 OYE Of the thousands of market animals that were exhibited by their young 4-H and FFA owners this week at State Fair Park in Oklahoma City, it all came down to the final handful of top animals that were in the hunt for the Grand Championship for their species. For the Market Steers- the best of best was shown by 17 year old Madison Hudgins of the Mannford FFA Chapter. Madison told us in comments that you can hear by clicking on the LISTEN BAR at the bottom of this story that this was only the second time she had "made the sale" at the Oklahoma Youth Expo. She says her steer's name is "KD" which stands for Kevin Durant- the star of the Oklahoma City Thunder. KD was the Champion Crossbred steer that won that part of the 2014 Market Steer show just hours earlier on Thursday.


The Reserve Grand Champion Market Steer was shown by Ryan Callahan of the Edmond 4-H club- his Reserve Grand was named the Champion Charolais steer earlier in the week.


Hudgins and Callahan will join about 200 other 4-H and FFA members who will be able to say "I made the sale" as they will help headline the Sale of Champions on Friday afternoon at State Fair Park in Oklahoma City, beginning at 4 PM.


Pictures of all of the action over the course of the OYE thus far can be found in the photo set for the 2014 Oklahoma Youth Expo we have set up on FLICKR- Click here to go and check out our growing number of pictures in our 2014 collection.
