Ernie Wallace, Stotts City, Mo., evaluated the 125 females, 55 bulls and three cow-calf pairs before selecting champions of the 56th WNAF.

The 56th Western National Angus Futurity drew exhibitors with cattle from eighteen states. The weather was as beautiful as anyone can remember for this Reno event.
