San Antonio, Texas — February 15, 2020 — There were plenty of couples in the stands for Valentine’s Day at the San Antonio Stock Show Rodeo, but for the contestants of Bracket Four, it was all business in the AT&T Center.
2019 Women’s Professional Rodeo Association Rookie of the Year Carly Taylor of Andersonville, Tennessee, tied for the win two consecutive nights to ultimately finish second in the bracket with a total $4,500. In Round One of Bracket Four, two PC Frenchmans Hayday daughters took the spotlight. Taylor and her mare Diva Deniro shared victory with Hailey Kinsel Lockwood and DM Sissy Hayday, each clocking a 14.09. In Round Two, Taylor and Snyder, Texas, resident Jill Wilson each had a time of 14.24 and added $2,250 to their earnings. Thanks to her 15-year-old gelding Lean Mean Blue Dean (Dean Miracle x Luv Her Winner x Runaway Winner), Wilson came out on top of Bracket Four with $4,750 in earnings.
