Probably the best Mr. Batavia in its 11th year history.

That’s how contestant Harry Southall described this year’s contest, which featured 13 young men on stage Friday evening at Batavia High School.  After Southall came in as first runner-up, he was elated to have been part of such a team effort even though each individual was competing for the number one spot.
