Senior Nathan Green takes the title of Mr. Hays 2021

On April 10th, senior class of ’21 held their ‘Mr Hays’ at the Grace Lodge located in Buda. The competition consisted of many categories such as, swimwear, evening wear, a joke, talent, and a question at the end. Contestants William Agnew, Nate Green, Jake Jackson, Corey Vester, Ellis Taylor, Grayson Winter, and Tyson Hatnot competed to win the titles “Mr. Congeniality,” “Mr. Talented,” and “Mr. Hays.” When the results came in, Ryan Bovey announced Grayson Winter as Mr. Congeniality, Tyson Hatnot as Mr. Talented, and overall winner Nate Green as Mr. Hays. The contestants were escorted by Madison Hammond, Reagan Gilbert, Cambria Henry, Taea Oglesby, Gracie Bankston, Kierra Evans, Darci Kaminski, and Catherine Danford. The night consisted of a steak dinner served by senior boys, and friends and family gathered to laugh and enjoy the show. The show was very comical, and was streamed live for those who could not attend.
