Tyler is the 18-year-old son of Kenny and Libbie Booth of Crawfordsville , Ind. He has two half sisters, Amber and Missy. Tyler is a senior at Southmont High School and plans on attending Purdue University next fall with a major in Ag Business. Tyler is a nine-year 4-H member who enjoys showing swine while also playing intramural basketball. 

This past year was Tyler ' s first year attending the National Junior Summer Spectacular in Louisville , Ky. He was named Reserve Champion Hampshire Gilt. This is quite an honor considering the number of pigs at this show. Tyler didn’t participate in the judging contest or the skillathon. He says he “just likes to show.” Tyler ' s favorite breed is Hampshires. His favorite moments in his showing career include being chosen to be in the Spotlight Sale of Champions at the Indiana State Fair in 2002 with his Champion Hampshire Barrow and being named the Indiana Junior Swine Circuit (IJSC) overall points champion last summer.

Tyler ' s main goal in the future is to graduate from Purdue University with a bachelor’s degree. He would then like to start a career in sales as a feed representative while also raising show pigs.

Congratulations Tyler on all your success! Good luck this year!
