Corey Emery and Elise Mercer came out on top.

Emery showed the supreme grand champion and Mercer showed the supreme junior champion animals at the Jay County 4-H Dairy Show on July 12.

The titles flipped for both winners as Mercer also showed the reserve supreme grand champion and Emery showed the reserve supreme junior champion.

Emery had the grand champion registered holstein, and Mercer took home titles for the grand champion brown swiss, guernsey, jersey and milking shorthorn.

Veronica Dirksen and Eli Dirksen earned junior showmanship and senior showmanship awards, respectively. Porter Clamme was named intermediate showman and Seth Degler was the advanced showman.
