The team, which includes Crockett students Bryce Bateman, Kareena Jones, Brittany Sparks and Rebekah Wright, placed 11th out of 37 states taking part in the event, a part of the National FFA Convention.

Crockett received a Gold Team Emblem award for being one of the best teams.

The team fought extreme weather conditions during the event, finishing just 120 points behind the first-place team and 38 points from third place in the two-day event.

Bateman placed 11th High Individual in the Nation; Sparks placed 16th High Individual.
