Murray State University’s rodeo team hosted a mock rodeo to prepare for their spring season.
When asked, Murray State barrel racer Citori Branham said, “the mock rodeos not only give us confidence going into upcoming rodeos but also let’s us have a real live audience while working on anything we need to.”
The rodeo was open to the public to come watch and support the Racer’s. Branham said, “the crowd can impact your riding immensely whether it gives you confidence or makes you nervous.” For Branham personally, the crowds give her more confidence to put on a good show.
