The Colorado Northwestern Community College (CNCC) rodeo team is making waves this fall, achieving impressive results both regionally and nationally. Under the leadership of Coach Garrett Uptain, the Spartans have showcased their talent, determination, and competitive spirit in a strong start to the season.

Currently, the CNCC women's rodeo team is ranked 5th in the highly competitive Rocky Mountain region, and their success extends beyond regional standings. The women's team is also ranked 13th in the nation, a testament to their hard work and dedication.

Leading the charge for the Spartans is Jessy Pelloni, who is ranked 1st in the Rocky Mountain region in barrel racing and has carried her success onto the national stage, where she is also ranked 1st in the country. Pelloni's outstanding performances have been instrumental in putting CNCC's rodeo program on the national map.

Kourtney Schurman has also been a key contributor to the team's success, currently ranked 5th in the region and 18th nationally in barrel racing. Schurman's consistency and drive have helped the Spartans maintain their competitive edge throughout the fall season.

"We're incredibly proud of how our team is performing this fall," said Coach Garrett Uptain. "Jessy and Kourtney have been exceptional, and the entire women's team has worked hard to earn these rankings. We're excited to continue building on this momentum."

With the fall season well underway, the CNCC rodeo team is poised for continued success and looks forward to competing at the highest level. The Spartans are committed to representing CNCC with pride and pushing the limits in the arena.
