The 13-year-old won the Junior Division public-speaking and photography competitions and placed second in the Junior Division judging competition. She also led the Class 23 winner in the bred-and-owned Limousin bull show and was an Intermediate Division showmanship finalist.

Texas won the team sweepstakes, followed by Oklahoma, then Kansas. Individuals earned sweepstakes points by exhibiting animals, qualifying for the showmanship finals, and participating in the public-speaking, photography and judging competitions. State teams gathered points from herdsmanship, a group class in the cattle show, the Limousin Beef Cook-Off and the public-speaking competition. The North American Limousin Foundation (www.nalf.org), headquartered in Centennial, Colo., provides programs and services--including genetic evaluation of 5,000 active sires--to more than 4,000 members and their commercial customers. The Limousin breed and its Lim-Flex hybrid lead the beef industry in muscle-growth efficiency and ideally complement British breeds. 8/4/08 Date: 7/31/08
