PREEC Awards Scholarships

The University of Nebraska-Lincoln Panhandle Research, Extension, and Education Center awarded Delaney Pohl, Jadon Skavdahl, and William Skavdahl each $1000 scholarship to any Nebraska University Campus.

All the scholarship awardees are planning on attending UNL.

Delaney Pohl is a 2024 Bridgeport High School graduate. She plans to pursue a degree in Agronomy. “I want to use this degree to pursue a career in soil science in this area of the state.”

“I plan to carry on my family’s ranching legacy in Western Nebraska,” said Jadon Skavdahl of Sioux County. He’ll be majoring in Applied Sciences through the College of Agricultural Sciences and Natural Resources at UNL.

William Skavdahl, who also graduated with the class of 2024 from Sioux County High School, seeks to expand his knowledge and commitment to agriculture at UNL. “I plan to major in agribusiness and receive a minor in animal science. After graduating college, I plan to return to the Panhandle and ranch.”

The Panhandle Research, Extension, and Education Center in Scottsbluff is proud to sponsor these youth and encourage them to pursue their goals.
