A barn can sit above the state average at one weight and below it at another — check the class you actually sell.

29 sales

Bulls 0–100 lb: high $218.83, low $174.74, median $202.22 across 29 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
