Rocky Zeller of Chattanooga FFA Exhibits Grand Champion Market Barrow at 2014 OYE

Fri, 21 Mar 2014 05:57:20 CDT

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 Barrows- the best of best was shown by Rocky Zeller of the Chattanooga FFA. Zeller won with his Champion Crossbred Barrow. Winning the Grand Championship means his barrow was the best of more than 2,400 shown at the 2014 OYE.


The Reserve Grand Champion Market Barrow was shown by Hailey Kastl of the Perkins 4-H club- her Reserve Grand was named the Champion Hampshire barrow earlier in the week.


Zeller and Kastle 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.
