SEBASTIAN COUNTY (KFSM) -  A new champion emerged at the Sebastian County Spelling Bee on Saturday (Jan. 24).

Vinny Nguyen, who goes to Trinity Junior High School in Fort Smith, won the spelling bee by correctly spelling the word “cladistics.”

"Excited, happy, and relieved kind of that there's a little break from the studying," Nguyen said. "I've studied the words a lot, so I didn't need the definitions most of the time so we went off of the list."
