* This report covers today's Board Sale results. For in-barn cattle please see "Buckhannon Stockyards--Special Graded Sale report. *

Slow market conditions for the Board Sale today but trade remained active, slightly higher than average attendance. A lot of water over the dam in this market since the August Board sale. In comparison, light 7 weight Steers were significantly lower today, heavy 7s sold steady while 8 and 9 weights were significantly higher. Heifers $6 higher.
