Lacks subject-verb agreement

Explanation:

In this sentence, the subject is "the five winners of the state competition." As there are five winners, we know this is a plural noun. When we look at the verb, the sentence employs "goes." This is the singular form of the verb. Therefore, we can see that the subject and the verb do not agree. In English, it is important for the subject and the verb to agree with each other in number and tense in order for the sentence to be understandable.
