Anah Higbie of Quenemo, Kansas, is the winner of the 12th annual NCBA National Anthem Contest, sponsored by Norbrook. Higbie will sing the "Star-Spangled Banner" at CattleCon 2025 in San Antonio, Texas.

Higbie's family owns a commercial Simmental cow-calf operation in eastern Kansas. Besides thriving on the day-to-day operations of running cattle, she enjoys showing cattle and considers being an animal agriculture advocate one of the biggest passions of her
life.
As the winner of the contest, Higbie will receive roundtrip airfare to San Antonio, hotel room for three nights, convention registration, plus a pair of boots, jeans and a shirt from Roper or Stetson. Online voting by the public determined the winner.
