Inmates from various Florida prisons met Wednesday at the Cross City Correctional Institution to compete in the 5th Annual FDC Masonry Competition.

Fourteen inmates went head-to-head in a three-hour bricklaying race to claim the coveted Trowel Trophy.

First, second and third place winners received a personal masonry kit for them to own if they choose to enter the trade after leaving prison.
