Dairy Cattle
Judges Complete
Successful Season
COLLEGE PARK, Md. In baseball, it’s called “hit
ting for the circuit” a single, double, triple, and home
run by one player in the same game.
With a little poetic license, achievements by this year’s
Maryland 4-H dairy cattle judging teams could be
described as “hitting for the circuit in the World Series of
dairy cattle judging competition for youth.”
One Maryland 4-H team placed second among 34 state
teams on Sept. 28 in the National 4-H Dairy Cattle Judging
Contest, held in conjunction with the World Daily Expo at
Madison, Wis. The same team was third among IS state
teams in the 4-H division on Sept 20 during the Pennsyl
vania All-American Dairy Cattle Judging Contest at Har
risburg, Pa.
More recently, a second Maryland 4-H team placed first
among 26 state 4-H and FFA delegations on Nov. 7 in the
youth division of the North American International Dairy
Cattle Judging Contest at Louisville, Ky.
The "home run” punch for this year’s Maryland 4-H
teams came from individual performances by a quartet of
teen-agers: Brian R. Schnebly, 16, of Dry Run (Washing
ton County); April Hall. 16, of Church Hill (Queen Anne’s
County); Sean Johnson, 18, of Daisy (Howard County);
and Kelli Savage, 17, of Petersville. a Frederick County
resident with 4-H membership in Montgomery County.
Brian placed first among 58 contestants in judging both
Ayrshires and Jerseys at the Harrisburg event. April
topped 132 contestants for overall individual honors at
Madison.
At the recent Louisville contest, Sean was high indivi
dual among 103 contestants in Holstein breed judging,
Kelly Myers was first in Guernseys, and Kelli Savage cap
tured the Ayrshire crown with a perfect score of 100
points.
Kelli’s neighbor. Holly Burall, IS, alsp of Petersville,
placed second in Ayrshire breed judging, and she was a
close second in the overall individual standings.
The two young women helped propel Maryland to a
first-place finish in Ayrshire judging as well as the overall
team standings.
Since the Louisville group often forms the backbone of
next year’s Maryland 4-H dairy cattle judging team that
competes at Harrisburg and Madison, Dr. J. Lee Majeskie,
the team coach, is optimistic about 1994.
Majeskie has coached the Maryland 4-H dairy cattle
judging teams for 12 years. He is an animal sciences spe
cialist for the Cooperative Extension Service. University
of Maryland at College Park. His assistants for the Louis
ville contest were Katharine Knowlton, a graduate
research assistant at UMCP. and Amy Brown Ingram of
Marriottsville (Howard County), who was the national
champion 4-H dairy cattle judge in 1990.
