making sure my feed program was right on track all season. To Burke Holvey and Joel, thank you for letting me invade your fitting area even when you guys had a steer of your own to get ready. A special thank you to Julia Weaber for sharing so much knowledge and being such an incredible support, especially on that special day. To Blake, Andrew, and Isaiah, I couldn’t have asked for a better crew to help get my steer fit and ready all year long. Your hard work, skill, and dedication mean the world to me.
And to my parents, no words can describe how thankful I am for your support. Thank you for taking care of Rocco every single day while I was away at college, making sure he was fed and worked just like I would have done. Thank you for flying me home for shows so I could be there in the ring with him. None of this would have been possible without your sacrifices, your belief in me, and your love for this dream as much as I do. To my friends who cheered me on, none of this would have been possible without your encouragement and belief in me. You’ve been there for every late-night pep talk, every
setback, and every win. And to the ones who doubted me or had something to say… you only made me want it more. This moment wasn’t just about winning. It was about proving to myself that with grit, determination, and the right people in your corner, anything is possible. Here’s to chasing dreams, working hard, and never forgetting why you started. ●
