Oklahoma Baptist University announced the 2025 Harvest Court winners during halftime of its October 25 game against Southeastern Oklahoma State University. The game kicked off at 6 p.m. inside Crain Family Stadium at the Hurt Complex. The announcement took place during The Weekend, OBU’s annual homecoming celebration, held Oct. 23-25.

Seniors were nominated by their peers in six categories and winners were selected by a vote of the OBU student body held earlier in the week.

Liv Todd of Fayetteville, a nursing major from Arkansas, was crowned harvest queen and Cole Taylor, a communication studies major from Coweta, was named harvest king.

The best all-around woman went to Maggie Butler, a secondary mathematics education major from Owasso, while Cole Raymick, a biblical and theological studies major from Chengdu, China, won best all-around man.

Anna Rader, an exercise science pre-allied health major from Sulphur, Louisiana, was selected as the most servant-like woman and Clayton Freeman, a biblical and theological studies major from Newcastle, won most servant-like man.

Harvest Queen finalists for 2025 included Samantha Harrison, an interdisciplinary studies major from Hemphill, Texas, and Kennedy Neal, a psychology pre-counseling major from Claremore.

Harvest King finalists included Yonas Daniel, an exercise science pre-allied health major from Haslet, Texas, and Joshua Wideman, a computer science major from Istanbul, Turkey.

Most Servant-Like Man finalists included Gabe Atyia, a biblical and theological studies major from Seminole, and Gabe Lane, a theology and ministry major from Broken Arrow.

Most Servant-Like Woman finalists included Lauren Crouch, a exercise science pre-allied health major from Edmond, and Anna Welch, a global marketplace engagement/business major in business from Suwanee, Georgia.

Best All-Around Man finalists included Payton Carter, a music composition major from Weatherford, and Isaac Liston, a global marketplace engagement/teaching English as a second language major from Meridian, Idaho.

Best All-Around Woman finalists included Samantha Lehr, a nursing major from Wall, Texas, and Mackenzie Robertson, an elementary education major from Collinsville.

The crowning of the Harvest Queen is a longstanding OBU tradition that began in 1920, with the title of Harvest King added in 1996. The additional categories of Most Servant-Like and Best All-Around were introduced in subsequent years to recognize character, leadership and contributions to the campus community.
