Local student named to All-Star rodeo team
HOLLISTER – Cheyenne Rey, an eighth-grade student at Jefferson Elementary School, as been named as a co-captain of the prestigious National High School Rodeo Association’s Wrangler All-Star Rodeo Team for the Wrangler Division.
The NHRSA-WD and Wrangler created the Wrangler All-Star Rodeo team in 1998 to recognize more than 1,200 high school student athletes across the United States and Canada for their leadership qualities, academic performance and athletic achievements. The WD Wrangler All-Star Rodeo Team is fashioned after the prestigious Wrangler Champion Pro Rodeo Team, which includes rodeo superstars such as Trevor Brazile, Stran Smith, Kody Lohstroh and more. Similar to their professional counterparts, members of the WD Wrangler All-Star Rodeo team wear official Wrangler competition apparel consisting of Wranlger Twenty X shirts embroidered with the team logo and Wrangler competition jeans. A select few have been elected as co-captains to serve in a team leadership capacity.
“We are extremely proud to have this fine group of young athletes lead the Wrangler Division Wrangler All-Star team,” said Jeff Chadwick, the Wrangler director of special events. “Their impressive accomplishments will no doubt serve them well as representatives of the sport of rodeo in the coming year.”
