The top Sleepy Eye team placed 2nd at the Region VI Contest out of 17 teams. The members of the top team included: Chloe Howe, Manny Poplow, Adam Rodriguez (all with a 3-way tie for 4th place individual), Cody Schultz (tied for 5th individual).
The other members on the Sleepy Eye teams included: Lily Kallevig (tied for 6th individual), Cadence Okerman, Izzy Kunkel, Jose Castorena, Noemi Rodriguez, Tim Friton and Nolan Weicherding all competed.
All of these greenhands will compete at the State FFA Convention in April.
