FFA members from Portales and Elida came away with the top bids in Friday night's Junior Livestock Auction at the Roosevelt County Fair.
Joy Levacy, secretary of the Junior Livestock Auction, said top sale honor went to Trypp Hamilton of Portales High School FFA with his steer bringing in $12,000.
Levacy reported second place went to Blayne Bricker of Elida Schools FFA with $10,000 for his market steer.
Coming in third was Kyleigh Stephenson, also of Elida Schools FFA, with her steer for $9,000.
Levacy described attendance at the sale as "very good."
"This was the Roosevelt County Junior Livestock sale's 35th year, 35th sale," Levacy said.
Fair officials early this week did not have total fair attendance numbers.
