Great shot, but in this competition you will be told that it's not a headshot, it's a half body shot. You might consider re-entering a much closer crop, making the face the focal point. You should see greatly improved scoring.
Thanks Michael for the feedback, I will definitely keep that in mind. My thoughts always were that cropping can be done afterwards to accommodate what the client wants to use it for... But I definitely do see your point.
Much better. Look at some of the other entries, you could still bring it up from the bottom a little more. But now you've got the right idea. Then delete your first version and re-enter your final image. Good luck!

I echo Michael's suggestion, Gabe. This competition is not for your client. Looks like an outstanding headshot if cropped tightly.
Something like this better?

I'd go tighter from the bottom.
