Southdowns Dominate AllAmerican

      It took more than rain and floods to keep the Junior Southdown Exhibitors away from the 2006 All American in Springfield, MA.  Once there, the over 250 Southdowns demonstrated why we are the breed chosen by Juniors.  In addition to an excellent show judged by David Sims of Illinois, juniors participated in Wool Shows, Skill-A-Thon, Showmanship Classes, Top Gun Awards, and a 3 on 3 Basketball in the Basketball Hall of Fame.  Plus, all the lobsters and clams on the east coast were consumed in a Lobster and Clambake Dinner along with a Pool Party.
     Jessica Hopkins was the Southdown "Top Gun". She won champion ewe and champion ram was by Megan Bishop.  Megan gave Jessica a close run in the "Top Gun' competition.  Please view the result of the Juniors, some coming from 35 hours away to participate, in the RESULTS PAGE.
