Ag Power Diagnostics CDE
Twin Valley South-MVCTC FFA members Jacob Ditton and Ryan McRill competed in the District 5 Ag Power Diagnostics CDE. The event was hosted by Koenig Equipment in Greenville on Feb. 11. The contest consisted of five stations where they had 20 minutes to fix two “bugs” with five different types and brands of tractors. Their hard work helped them place 9th out of 21 teams in a very competitive competition.
TVS-MVCTC FFA thanks Koenig Equipment as well as North Star Hardware for also providing equipment for the contest. Another thanks goes to coach, Tommy Schleiger, for all the guidance and help in preparing the team.
