Myers sweeps her way through sheep

Kylinn Myers dominated the sheep show this year.

Myers showed the grand champion ewe and grand champion market lamb at the 4-H Sheep Show on July 10.

Her commercial blackface ewe took the grand champion title, and her hamp and shrop market lambs earned the grand champion and reserve grand champion awards, respectively. Her brother, Bryson Myers, took home the reserve grand champion ewe award for his commercial blackface ewe.

Kylinn Myers was also the reserve champion senior showman.

Her accomplishments follow her performance from 2023, when Kylinn Myers also showed the grand champion market lamb.
