i, I am Finley Yocham from Sapulpa, Oklahoma. The 14 year old daughter of Harlan and Kara Yocham. Older sister of Raimey, Tripp, and Conley Yocham. I’m in the 7th grade at Lone Star School. When I’m not in the barn, I spend my time doing competitive dance, basketball, and track. My biggest passion and love is for cattle; my heart is always in the show barn. Winning the 2023 Oklahoma Youth Expo Market Steer Show and Oklahoma Youth Expo Supreme Champion Influence Heifer Show was a very humbling experience, and the most memorable show so far! Without hard
work and dedication, nothing is worth doing. For me and my family, showing isn’t just a hobby, it’s a lifestyle that has developed overtime. My mom and dad both showed cattle growing up. I’m the 4th generation to show livestock in my family. The barn is like a second home for us; during show season we spend more time
there than at home! We really can’t imagine doing anything else with our lives. I am very fortunate to have great-grandparents, grandparents, and parents who grew up raising and showing cattle. It’s so special that we all enjoy the same passion. The knowledge they have gained over the years is being passed on to my siblings and I. My family plays a
huge role in my success. There’s never been a time I’ve washed or blown by myself. In all my years showing, whether they want to or not, my siblings assist me with whatever they can; they have always been team players. Our family time in the barn gets tiresome, but we have so much fun doing our daily chores together. We’ve been known to have full on concerts cleaning
