Avery Zeisler is the winner of this year’s Fed Cattle Challenge. For her first place finish, she was awarded $1500 and tickets to the South Dakota Cattlemen’s Foundation’s Gala and concert The Fed Cattle Challenge provides an opportunity for youth to learn about the science and economics of finishing cattle by participating in a calf finishing program. Participants and groups gain an understanding of the process for finishing cattle through ownership of a percentage of a pen of cattle (roughly equivalent to three head) at a custom feedlot, receive curriculum on twelve topics related to cattle feeding, calculate a closeout, and present what they have learned to a panel.

The Gregory Gorillas were first on the board in Friday’s loss to Platte-Geddes in Platte. Landon Keiser put six points on the Gregory side with a 13-yard touchdown run in the second quarter that came after a hard-fought defensive battle in the scoreless first quarter.

On Thursday, September 4, 2025, the Gregory cheer and dance team took their pom and hip-hop routines to Mitchell’s AA and A schools combined competition. The coaches and girls took the score sheets from the competition in Gregory and added difficulty to pom and adjusted hip-hop a little throughout the week. Their work paid off as the scores and comments from the judges’ sheets were very informative.
