- Year: Sophomore
- Major: Community Psychology with a minor in Equine Management
- CNFR Qualifications: 1 (2026)
- Hometown: Tsuut’ina Nation, a reserve near Calgary, Alberta
- Future Goals: My goals are to continue progressing in pro rodeo, fill my permit, and eventually make the Canadian Finals Rodeo. Along with my rodeo goals, I also want to graduate with my degree and eventually give back to my community by working with youth. I am passionate about helping young people, especially Indigenous youth, build confidence and find positive outlets through mentorship, culture, and horses.
BHN: Tell us about the horse you rodeoed on for the 2025-26 year.
Cayda Dodginghorse: I ran “Nelson” this season. His registered name is Hezborntaboggie. He is 8 years old this year, and we have owned him since he was 2. He is a very special horse to my family because he is a full brother to my mom’s good horse, who is now 17 years old. Nelson is actually my mom’s horse, and she trusted me enough to let me run him this college season.
Our very first run together was at our first college rodeo of the fall season in Cody, Wyoming, so we were really learning each other as the season went on. Even though we were both adjusting to each other, Nelson stayed so consistent for me throughout the entire season. He gave me confidence when I needed it most and taught me a lot about patience and trust. He has such a big heart and always tries for me. I am forever grateful that my mom lets me run him. Hopefully one day she will let me officially take him over.
BHN: How did the 2025-26 season go?
Dodginghorse: At the beginning of the season, I honestly did not know what to expect because I had never run Nelson before. Going into the year, my main goal was simply to have clean and safe runs while figuring each other out. However, Nelson surprised me, and we ended up placing second at every rodeo during the fall season. After having a pretty rough freshman year, it all felt surreal and gave me a lot more confidence.
The spring season definitely came with some challenges though. The two first rodeos back were in Bozeman, and I had some pretty tough luck. I was just outside the top ten during the first rodeo and knocked barrels over during the second rodeo. After that weekend, I really started focusing on my mental game. I worked on positive self talk, breathing exercises, and learning how to trust both myself and my horse more. The very next weekend, we won our home college rodeo, which was one of the most special moments of the season.
The rest of the season, I really tried to leave everything in Creator’s hands and remind myself that if something is meant to happen, it will happen. At our region finals, the ground conditions were pretty tough, so I chose to put Nelson first and lope the pattern instead of pushing him. Even with that decision, we still managed to win the region title. That moment meant a lot to me because it reminded me that putting your horse first will always matter more than a run.
BHN: What rodeo in your region is your favorite?
Dodginghorse: I would say my favorite rodeo in the region is my hometown college rodeo at MSU Northern in Havre, Montana. They did such a great job with the ground and raked after every barrel racer so it stayed fair for everyone. I also love the atmosphere of the rodeo. It is a really small town, but the support from the community is amazing. It was really cool seeing our little barn packed. You could really feel the energy and support throughout the whole weekend.
BHN: What are three things you can’t travel to rodeos without?
Dodginghorse: I cannot travel without my BEMER blanket because I use it every time before I saddle, a Coke Zero, and my dogs Peter and Oliver because they make every trip better.
BHN: What is the biggest thing this season has taught you?
Dodginghorse: The biggest thing college rodeo has taught me is that rodeo comes with both highs and lows. There are going to be good days and bad days, and everyone goes through slumps at some point. But what really matters is how you pull yourself back out of them, staying positive, and overcoming when things get tough.
I also learned how important it is to stop putting so much pressure on myself and just enjoy the process. Once I stopped overthinking every run and started trusting Creator, my horse, and myself more, everything started falling into place.
Caprock Region – Molly Harper, Odessa College

- Year: Freshman
- CNFR Qualifications: 1 (2026)
- Hometown: Australia
- Future Career: I aspire to compete professionally, qualify for the National Finals Rodeo and build a career training high-quality barrel horses. Having competed in rodeo from a young age, I have developed a strong foundation and a deep commitment to continuous improvement. My decision to study and compete in the U.S. reflects my goal of challenging myself at a higher level and gaining valuable experience.
BHN: Tell us about the horse you rodeoed on for the 2025-26 year.
Molly Harper: Cashin In The Fame, “Bobby” was born and trained in Australia.
BHN: How did the 2025-26 season go?
Harper: The season was incredibly exciting and rewarding. Like any year in rodeo, it came with its share of ups and downs, but overall it was a great experience and one I’m very proud of. A major highlight was winning my first college rodeo, which set a strong tone for the season. I was also fortunate to have consistent success in the arena, earning five short go wins and five long go-round wins. There were definitely some tight barrel races along the way, which pushed me to stay focused and keep improving. Each challenge helped me grow, both as a competitor and as an athlete.
BHN: What rodeo in your region is your favorite?
Harper: Odessa. The rodeo is ran like a pro rodeo!
BHN: What are three things you can’t travel to rodeos without?
Harper: Coffee, Lucky shirt + jeans combo, Oxygen Equine horse supplements
BHN: What is the biggest thing this season has taught you?
Harper: The biggest lesson this past season has taught me is that mindset is what truly separates you from the competition. The effort you put in throughout the week shows up on the weekend, making it easier to stay consistent and perform under pressure. I’ve also learned how important it is to surround yourself with people who motivate and support you. This year reinforced that it’s okay to be different, to say no, and to stay focused on your own goals. Most importantly, I’ve come to see every challenge as an opportunity to grow, both in and out of the arena.

BHN: How did the 2025-26 season go?
O’Leary: I started the year running Angel, where we won the average at Durant and placed fourth in the average at Stillwater. As the season went on, Woodrow really stepped up for me, winning second across the board at Garden City and consistently making every short go after that. We went on to place second in the short go at Weatherford and tied for third/fourth in the average. At Hays, we placed second in the long go, third in the short go, and second in the average.

BHN: Tell us about the horse you rodeoed on for the 2025-26 year.

He is 18 years old, and I ran him at the CNFR last year. My sister usually runs him, but she let me borrow him for a couple of rodeos.
BHN: How did the 2025-26 season go?
Grubb: This year went well for me. I ended up winning the Central Rocky Mountain Region in the all around as well and finished reserve champion goat tier. I am very excited to get to compete at the CNFR in two events. The Gillette College women’s team also ended the year second in the region. One challenge that I overcame was losing my good goat-tying and breakaway horse this year. It was pretty unexpected, so I had to make a horse change, but it worked out in the end.
BHN: What rodeo in your region is your favorite?
Grubb: My favorite rodeo in the region this year was our home rodeo in Gillette. I won the barrels, got third in the goat tying, and third in the breakaway and won the all around. This was a fun rodeo to do well at since it was at home.
BHN: What are three things you can’t travel to rodeos without?
Grubb: My cowboy hat, Equinity for my horses, and my XLR magnetic sheet.
BHN: What is the biggest thing this season has taught you?
Grubb: The biggest thing college rodeo has taught me is just to have fun no matter what. Even through there are tough times, if you do not enjoy what you do it makes rodeo that much harder. Also, I have learned who you surround yourself with is really important and I appreciate all my friends and the people who support me.
Grand Canyon – Ashlyn McCleve, Central Arizona College

- Year: Junior
- Major: Applied Biological Sciences
- CNFR Qualifications: 2 (2024, 2026)
- Hometown: Gilbert, Arizona
- Future Career: Equine Veterinarian
- Other Events: Breakaway
BHN: Tell us about the horse you rodeoed on for the 2025-26 year.
Ashlyn McCleve: My main rodeo horse and go to girl is Dulce Ruby Jewels. My family and I raised and trained “Jewels” and she has been one of the biggest blessings to me. Jewels and I started rodeoing together my freshman year of high school. She has helped me achieve so many of my goals along the way. She won the state of Arizona in the high school ranks. She qualified me to the National High School Finals rodeo all four years and has now qualified me to the CNFR two years, with multiple other wins along the way.
BHN: How did the 2025-26 season go?
McCleve: The 2025-26 year has treated us really well. I was also second in the region in the breakaway and women’s all around! One of the challenges that we faced was Jewels got hurt at the beginning of the 2025 year so we had to get her rehabbed and running stronger before the start of the 2025-26 rodeo season.
BHN: What rodeo in your region is your favorite?
McCleve: My favorite rodeo in the Grand Canyon region is the CAC Rodeo in Casa Grande. It is my favorite partly because it is our home rodeo but also because it is always a really fun performance. There is always a big crowd and they always make sure the ground is worked up so we can have a fast barrel race. I also really like that it is a two header so we get two runs that weekend for sure.
BHN: What are three things you can’t travel to rodeos without?
McCleve: Three thing I can’t travel without is my energy drinks (mainly the peach monster), my American Hat, and all of my recovery gear for the team (XLR8 products and BC2A Paste).
BHN: What is the biggest thing this season has taught you?
McCleve: The biggest thing this year of college rodeo has taught me is that success is built long before you ever make a run. It’s found in the early mornings, long drives, setbacks, and countless hours spent in the practice pen. This year taught me the importance of resilience and trusting the process. There were plenty of highs and lows but each experience helped me grow as a competitor and person. Looking back, I’m most grateful for the people, horses, and lessons that made this journey possible.
Great Plains – Jayda Reinert, Black Hills State University

- Year: Sophomore
- Major: Biology
- CNFR Qualifications: 1 (2026)
- Hometown: Wall, South Dakota
- Future Career: Pediatric Occupational Therapist
- Other Events: Breakaway, Team Roping
BHN: Tell us about the horse you rodeoed on for the 2025-26 year.
Jayda Reinert: I ran one horse this year named “Louie.” His registered name is Streakin French Lena, I got him at the beginning of my senior year of high school and we have slowly but surely been getting each other “figured out.” When I first started riding Louie my goal was to make it to the short-go at the South Dakota State High School rodeo. God has allowed us to far exceed that hope, as I didn’t expect that we’dbe heading to the CNFR just two years later. He has taught me so much about how to ride confidently and correctly.
BHN: How did the 2025-26 season go?
Reinert: Louie and I won the barrels at 7 out of 10 rodeos this season. This was a quite unexpected success, as last year the best we placed was top four at the Yellowjackets Stampede, my home rodeo. One obstacle we overcame was Louie contracting strangles two weeks before the start of the spring season. This was a definitely difficult, as I was worried about his health and knew he would have to be kept home from at least the first spring rodeo. He was kept in quarantine for three weeks at my family’s place in Wall. I ended up running my high school barrel horse at the first spring rodeo, who just so happens to be the horse that I also breakaway and team roped on all season. I went in hoping for the best but not expecting anything great but we ended up 11th in the long go! Louie was back and ready to run at the second spring rodeo two weeks after this.
BHN: What rodeo in your region is your favorite?
Reinert: My favorite rodeo is probably the MidPlains Community College rodeo in North Platte, Nebraska. It is run well and in a great facility. I love the different atmosphere of running in such a big arena like the North Platte fairgrounds. Most of the other arenas we run in are quite a bit smaller, and I love to let my horses have room to run. Louie loves to stretch out and show off his long stride, and team roping is so much fun in big open arena.
BHN: What are three things you can’t travel to rodeos without?
Reinert: Three things I can’t travel to any rodeo without are Bubbl’r, my Vans shoes, and my Bex sunglasses.
BHN: What is the biggest thing this season has taught you?
Reinert: The biggest thing that college rodeo has taught me this past year is to not take a single run or moment for granted. After my successes in the fall, I was excited to continue to run Louie in the spring. However, when a bit of a wrench got thrown in my plans, I realized how temporary this could all be and is. I am taking this one run at a time, just soaking up every run I have on him and every experience I get to have with my amazing team. God has shown me time and again that rodeo is so much more than mere wins and losses. He uses this incredible sport to shape my character and produce in me fruits of His Spirit in ways I never expected.
Lone Star Region – Emily Ward, Weatherford College

- Year: Junior

BHN: Tell us about the horse you rodeoed on for the 2025-26 year.
Emily Ward: This season I competed on my palomino mare, Frenchmansnvousangel. We purchased “NV” in 2023 and she has been truly a blessing to me and my family. NV has so much heart and grit, she has helped me achieve so many goals. She is definitely a princess and is known as the “barbie dream horse”.
BHN: How did the 2025-26 season go?
Ward: This season was really good to me and NV stayed consistent all year long to help me win the Lone Star Region. She suffered an injury in the middle of the summer last year and I wasn’t sure if she would be ready when the season started back up. I made my second run back on her at the first college rodeo and she placed third at that rodeo. NV helped me make it back to eight short go’s out of the ten rodeos. She stayed so consistent all year, and worked amazing. I won the Fort Worth college rodeo and that was super cool to win the first college rodeo held in Fort Worth.
BHN: What rodeo in your region is your favorite?
Ward: My favorite rodeo in the region would probably have to be San Angelo. I grew up in Miles, which is right outside of San Angelo, so it was like a hometown rodeo to me. The setup for the barrels and the breakaway was really fun and such a cool experience.
BHN: What are three things you can’t travel to rodeos without?
Ward: Three things I can’t travel to rodeos without would be my pony Mickie Mouse, this is NV’s companion pony. All of my rodeo shirts, I cannot pick what I want to wear for the whole weekend so they all get to come. The third thing would have to be my dog, Maggie. Maggie goes with me everywhere and is the best traveling partner to have!
BHN: What is the biggest thing this season has taught you?
Ward: I think this season taught me to trust the process and live in the moment. The time will come, and let the Lord take full control.

He handled this season like a champ. Running barrels during breeding season is not the easiest but Doc is a very well-mannered horse than knows his job when it’s time!
BHN: How did the 2025-26 season go?
McFarlane: The 2025-26 season went better than I ever could have imagined. I won every college rodeo except for two. Doc just goes out there and makes the same run every time. Doc was also votedwomen’s horse or the year for the Northwest region.
BHN: What rodeo in your region is your favorite?
McFarlane: My favorite rodeo was our regional finals in Pendleton, Oregon because it was our home rodeo. All of my friends and family were there and it was so fun to have them there cheering us both on. I think Doc has a bigger fan club than I do!
BHN: What are three things you can’t travel to rodeos without?
McFarlane: Three things I couldn’t travel without would have to be a large coke fountain drink, chips, and soft rides and back on track boots for my horses.
BHN: What is the biggest thing this season has taught you?
McFarlane: This year college rodeo taught me that your biggest goals can be met by hard work and amazing horses. All of my horses were amazing for me all year, I wouldn’t have been able to achieve any of this without them.

BHN: How did the 2025-26 season go?
Orman: My first “big win” was the first college rodeo of the season at Missouri Valley. I won the short go and the average on Jill after finding thyroid nodules on a CT scan a few days prior to the rodeo. I’vestruggled with low blood sugars all year and no answers to that. I have surgery planned for after CNFR to remove half of my thyroid and pray that will help my other health problems. I know God has a plan for me and for Jill , I will keep my head up and keep praying.
BHN: What rodeo in your region is your favorite?

BHN: Tell us about the horse you rodeoed on for the 2025-26 year.
Sadie Mendenhall: I have two barrel horses that I have rode this year. My 11-year-old mare My Dads Hilarious, “Jetta” who I have had since high school. My 13-year-old gelding SO Passin The French, “Thunder” was out for the first half of the season but I brought him back this second half of the season to help my secure my number one position.
BHN: How did the 2025-26 season go?
Mendenhall: The season was full of ups and downs. My mare took great care of me and help me steadily stay in the average along with winning our home rodeo! It was tough getting my gelding ready as he was recovering after 8 months off and healing from pneumonia last summer. He came back strong and eager and I couldn’t be more thankful for his desire to get back to work.
BHN: What rodeo in your region is your favorite?
Mendenhall: I personally love our UVU home rodeos. It’s exciting, busy and chaotic in all the best ways.
BHN: What are three things you can’t travel to rodeos without?
Mendenhall: After traveling with barrel horses for so long you have to know you can’t travel without all the vet supplies and medicines to keep them feeling their best. Also , I have to keep snacks on board for the traveling crew to keep the spirits up.
BHN: What is the biggest thing this season has taught you?
Mendenhall: The biggest thing rodeo has taught me this year is to never count yourself out and believe in yourself. It will test you and tear you apart when you let it but if you keep your head held high and know you are capable, you are untouchable. The biggest competition is yourself, conquering the battle within your own mind will make all the difference.
Southern Region – Ceily Simpton, Texas A&M University

- Year: Junior
- Major: Agricultural Communications and Journalism, minor in Sports Management
- CNFR Qualifications: 1 (2026)
- Hometown: Navasota, Texas
- Future Career: Pro Rodeo, Social Media, Marketing
BHN: Tell us about the horse you rodeoed on for the 2025-26 year.
Ceily Simpton: The horse I competed on this year is Twist Off Fame or “Twister.” He’s by Famous Bugs and out of a Firewater Flit mare that my mom pro rodeoed on. Twister was raised by my family and I, which has made our journey even more special. Getting to grow up alongside him and see him develop into the horse he is today has been incredibly bittersweet, I couldn’t be more proud to have him named the Southern Region Barrel Horse of the Year. He’s been a huge part of my life, and accomplishing these goals together has meant everything to me.
BHN: How did the 2025-26 season go?
Simpton: I truly couldn’t have asked for a better 2025–2026 season. Individually, I placed at nine out of 10 rodeos and won both the Panola College and Trinity Valley Community College rodeos and ended up as the Southern Region Barrel Racing Champion. I was also part of the Texas A&M Women’s Team where we won six out of 10 women’s team titles and the Southern Region Women’s Team Champion title. I feel so blessed to have had such a successful season, not just individually, but as a team. It was such an honor to be part of something bigger than myself.
BHN: What rodeo in your region is your favorite?
Simpton: I may be a little biased, but my favorite rodeo is our home rodeo at Texas A&M University, which was also named Southern Region Rodeo of the Year. In addition to competing, I serve as the social media chair for our team, so getting to promote the event and then see it all come together is really rewarding. Watching the stands fill up for two sold-out performances and seeing the community support our program was unforgettable.
BHN: What are three things you can’t travel to rodeos without?
Simpton: Three things I can’t travel without are my computer, my belt and my medicine box. Being a college student while rodeoing means I’m always balancing schoolwork on the road, so my computer is a must. My belt was my mom’s and I’m very superstitious about wearing anything else. Lastly, as a barrel racer having a medicine box on hand is a necessity.
BHN: What is the biggest thing this season has taught you?
Simpton: This college rodeo season has taught me the true meaning of teamwork. Both between me and my horse and within a team setting. Stepping into a leadership role within our program has been such a meaningful experience. I’m so grateful for the friendships, lessons, and memories that I’ll carry with me through the rest of my college career and the future.

Mylee Modlin: The barrel horse I rode all year is a 10-year-old mare Jammin JJ. “JJ” has worked so good for me this year. I truly have never vibed with a horse so well, our personalities just match. She is truly my biggest blessing and I thank Jesus every day I get to send her down the alley.
BHN: How did the 2025-26 season go?
Modlin: They season went good. I had a few horse wrecks which resulted in a bruised kidney and liver, and bad concussion. This made it hard to run barrels, but JJ took care of me. Winning the region was super cool. We also made the top 12 finals performance at the Red Bluff Pro Rodeo which is definitely the coolest personal win for us! I am just now getting my feet wet out here on the west coast and I am enjoying every minute of it.
