Congratulations to our 3 VMS students -- Beckett Bayer, Brazos Eakin and Gavin Bayer -- who are competing in the Texas Junior High Rodeo Association State Finals in Gonzales this week. With over 750 contestants across 10 regions in Texas and only the Top 10 in each event advancing to the State Finals, qualifying for the State FInals is quite an accomplishment!! These three young men worked hard both in and out of the arena to qualify for the State Finals by maintaining the grades and conduct required to compete. We are so proud of Beckett, Brazos and Gavin and wish them the best of luck as they compete in the TJHRA State Finals, which began last Saturday and will continue this week before wrapping up this Saturday.
