"Having so many competitions in one weekend is tough," said head coach Larry Sanchez. "With the attitude of the girls, and the way they are riding in practice, I could not be more excited about going to a competition. We are ready mentally as well as physically to do the job we hope to do."

The Cowgirls are coming off a successful season in which both the Hunter and Western teams earned Top 10 finishes at nationals, with Luann Ulrich being crowned an individual national champion as well.
