Both young men are from RR 4 Seaforth. They competed for three days in a class that did not allow coaching. There were 14 plowpersons from across the province in their division — tractor with a two -furrow competition plow. It was so sandy up there which made it easier to plow, said Haney. They were all great plowers — it was kinda tough. A total of 11 young Huron plowpersons have now earned this award over the years. Along with Steven and Tyson, several other Huron and local plowpersons competed this past week. They were: Paul Dodds, RR 1 Seaforth; Paul Pentland, Goderich; Steven 0 Rourke, Dublin; Ian Gordon, Bayfield; Bill Feeney Jr., Staffa; Shawn Flanagan, Burlington; Brandon McGavin, RR 4 Walton and Jim Cartwright Submitted photo Huron County Queen of the Furrow Kora Bennett stands with Tyson Arts and Steven Haney, winners of scholarships at the International Plowing Match near Meaford.
