Two SkillsUSA teams from North Central Missouri College in Trenton excelled at the Missouri SkillsUSA State Leadership Award Ceremony, with Josie Sigars and Connor Hershely winning first place and Lucas Berning and Haden Wright earning third place. Sigars and Hershely’s victory qualifies them to compete at the National Skills USA Leadership Contest in Atlanta in June. The competition tested participants’ technical knowledge, problem-solving skills, and teamwork in a simulated industrial setting, requiring them to integrate an industrial robot with peripherals and present their solution to judges.
