    Shoshoni’s Spratt wins Ladies Breakaway at Wind River Rodeo Roundup

    The second, and final day of the Wind River Roundup Rodeo was a cooler, damp affair as a late afternoon front cooled down the Riverton Fairgrounds Arena after a blistering hot opening day. The rodeo paid out an impressive $28,247 in total prize money, but for the second day, no one was able to score in the bull riding competition.

    Coralee Spratt of Shoshoni was the only Fremont County champion, winning $1,390.26 with a quick time of 2.4 seconds in ladies breakaway roping. There were 15 other cowboys and cowgirls from Wyoming that took home prize money, but the bulk of the prize winners hailed from Louisiana, Montana, Texas, Arizona, and Colorado.

    Spratt not only won the breakaway event, but her $1,390.26 prize was the highest paid out at the rodeo.

    Ladies breakaway was very competitive, with a lot of time penalties attached on Tuesday night for breaking the barrier early.

    As is usually the case with rodeos, the top total aggregate prize money went to the team roping event which paid out a total of $8,225 to the six teams that completed the heading and heeling of their steer.

    This was the 40th year of the Wind River Rodeo Roundup with earlier fair rodeos dating back to the early days of Fremont County held under different names and with different sponsors.
