West Side Metal Fab Team 2nd in Nation
West Side’s welding program continues to reach new heights, with the Metal Fabrication Team of Peyton Dean, Austin Murphree, and Nate Smith finishing runner-up in competition at the National Leadership & Skills Conference. They took the podium this evening at a sold-out ceremony in Louisville, Ky. The Metal Fab team competed against some of the nation’s best welders by completing a project that requires blueprint reading, teamwork, and attention to detail.
During April’s state competition, the Metal Fab team finished first, which secured their spot in this week’s national competition. In between the events, they spent hundreds of hours working with instructor Randy Carr and others to hone their skills. Tristen Cottrell, who was first in Arkansas SkillsUSA competition, also competed at NLSC. His final ranking is not yet known, but he did not finish in the Top 3.
