Congratulations to the EB FFA Radio Broadcasting team for placing 4th at the State Leadership Event Contest this past weekend. Team members Hannah Daigle, Kortlan Bell and Alex Delgado-Rico traveled to Sam Houston State University on Friday to compete in the contest.
There are 10 FFA Areas in the state and the top two teams from each area qualify for the State contest. On Friday, 2 semi final heats of 10 teams each were conducted. The top 5 teams from each heat went on to Saturday to compete in a Finals round. The EB FFA radio team was in the top 5 teams of their heat and advanced to the Finals. After Saturday's Finals round, the team placed 4th.
Just to put a little perspective on the magnitude of this feat...there are over 1,100 FFA chapters in the state of Texas that can enter the LDE contests. There were 675 entries in the Radio Broadcasting event. Which means we were 4th out of 675 teams.
