Carly Davison was nominated as a Beck's Player with Heart for her dedication and commitment on and off the field and court. Carly plays volleyball, basketball, and softball, saying her involvement over the years has brought her a lot of joy. While personal and team successes stick out while thinking of her time as an athlete, Carly cherishes the relationships and connections she has build the most. She also enjoyed mentoring younger students and setting a positive example while playing the sports she loves. In school, Carly is involved in Student Council, FFA, and Athletic Council, and is senior class president, president of National Honor Society. In her community, Carly volunteers at youth basketball, volleyball, and softball camps, has purchased and donated winter coats to kids in elementary school, umpires at Youth League, and participated in a Walk-A-Thon for a local children's hospital. She is also a ten-year 4-H member and is involved in her church's youth group and a Learning to Lean program. Agriculture means a lot to Carly, as she has lived on her family's farm her whole life. Some of her earliest memories consist of riding in a tractor, helping at the dump, or singing in the semi with her grandpa. She has learned several integral lessons, including the importance of integrity in working the jobs she's given, and learning how to do them diligently. Carly has also developed time management skills through harvest season and making sure everything runs swiftly and efficiently. Carly and her family are immersed in agriculture, and she said it is a blessing none of them would give up or take for granted. In the future, Carly plans to attend Culver-Stockton College to study health science while playing basketball. She also wants to attend graduate school to become a licensed physical therapist.

On this episode of Outdoor Adventures, Brownfield’s Brent Barnett sits down with Sam Seeton, the founder of Infinite Outdoors. The platform is often described as the “Airbnb for hunting and outdoor recreation,” helping farmers and landowners generate new income from their property while maintaining control over how it’s used. Seeton explains how the app allows landowners to offer short-term access leases for hunting, fishing, and outdoor recreation, often generating 2–5 times more revenue than traditional land leases. The system also allows farmers to set their own rules, pricing, and availability while staying as hands-on—or hands-off—as they want. Another unique aspect of the program is its conservation-driven approach. Every property is supported by wildlife biologists who help ensure sustainable harvest levels and healthy wildlife populations.
