As our season comes to a close, we’re proud of how the 2025 team finished strong and represented the CSU, Chico College of Agriculture at the local, state and national levels with class, commitment, and passion. We're thankful for a great group of students as well as our supporters who made this year one to remember.

Our team finished out the year with one last run at the Senior College National Championship Livestock Judging contest at the NAILE in Louisville, Kentucky!

We had a fantastic time working out on high quality livestock, and even had the opportunity to spend an afternoon watching the races at Churchill Downs!

We concluded our season with the Contest, followed by an awards breakfast the following morning— Here are the results!
