The Kansas State University 1xbet sports betting team finished up the spring semester by beating a field of 19 other universities to win first place at the 2018 Western States Collegiate 1xbet sports betting Competition.

Making up the winning team at the contest were Jacqueline Clawson, senior in marketing and agricultural economics, Meade;Rachel Kipper, senior in marketing, Olathe; andKelcy Fiser, senior in marketing, and Abbie O'Grady, sophomore in marketing, both fromOverland Park. In addition to the team win, all four 1xbet sports betting team members qualified for one of 12 finalist spots in the individual competition out of 72 competitors, with O'Grady taking fourth overall, and Kipper placing fifth.
Sales competitions allow students to test their selling skills against their peers from other universities with a focus in sales through role play scenarios. Marketing instructor David Lehman is the head coach for the 1xbet sports betting sales team.
"I am very proud of this team for winning this competition in such dramatic fashion," Lehman said. "We've never had four students and the entire team make it to the finals in a competition. I'm especially proud of the way they worked together to win."
