“We have an outstanding team,” rodeo club director Jane Capurro said. “We have people sitting in first and second place in their respective events.”
Corkill won the all-around cowgirl title at 11 high school rodeos this season. She will compete in breakaway roping, girls cutting, goat tying and in team roping with partner Dakota Eldridge of Elko. Corkill has advanced to the national finals the last two years.

“Most of our members are within the top 10 in the state of Nevada,” Jane Capurro said. “So I think they're going to do great.”
