Zaelyn Burnside, Jourdantown FFA

The 2025 Hill District Grandstand was filled with excitement and incredible talent, and this year’s Grand Champion Market Lamb banner was claimed by none other than Zaelyn Burnside, a 15-year-old freshman from Jourdanton, TX!

Zaelyn, a proud member of Jourdanton FFA, showcased hard work, dedication, and a passion for excellence, making her the well-deserving winner of this prestigious award. Her commitment to her livestock is matched only by her love for volleyball, and she certainly knows how to juggle both with grace and determination.

One of Zaelyn’s favorite moments on her showmanship journey? Buying her champion steer at San Angelo! It’s memories like these that highlight not just her talent, but the heart and passion she brings into every competition.

But Zaelyn’s dreams don’t stop here. With her eyes set on Texas A&M, Zaelyn is already envisioning an exciting future ahead. With this latest win under her belt, it’s clear that she’s just getting started!

Let’s join together to send a huge round of applause to Zaelyn Burnside, an inspiration to her local community and the entire Hill District Grandstand family. Her hard work is a testament to the dedication it takes to achieve greatness, and we couldn’t be prouder to celebrate her incredible achievement. Congratulations, Zaelyn! 🎉
