This week at a glance

Our projected standings start from the WPRA’s posted world board and add the money each rider won at rodeos finishing August 17-23. The WPRA has not audited this week yet, so everything beyond the base column is ours.

Twenty-five barrel races carried $168,477 in added money and paid out $274,120 to 164 riders. Of that, $185,083 went to riders inside the projected top 70, and four of them banked more than $13,000 apiece.

Carlee Otero won Gooding for $7,432 and placed at Canby to take $8,628 on the week, closing to $3,496 of Hayle Gibson-Stillwell for the world lead. Emily Beisel placed at Canby and Cassia County and moved past Kassie Mowry into third.

Mayes and Busby bank the week’s biggest climbs

Makenzie Mayes won the Canby Rodeo in 16.25 for $5,980, built $7,615 more at Caldwell across the first round and the average, and added $1,022 at Gooding. Her $14,617 moved her from 15th to 10th — the biggest climb anyone made inside the top 20, and it carried her clear of the cut line she was sitting on a week ago.

Andrea Busby had the deepest week at Caldwell. She was third in the first round, tied with Tricia Aldridge for the finals win, and won the average in 33.74 seconds on two head — $11,906 built across the three payouts. Gooding and Moses Lake added $2,537 more. Her $14,443 moved her four spots to 20th.

Sydney Graham banked the single biggest week of anyone at $14,911, winning the Caldwell first round in 16.71 and placing at Canby and Gooding. She holds sixth. Tricia Aldridge took $8,927 and Megan McLeod-Sprague $8,120, both built at Caldwell and Canby.

Grimes closes the cut to $1,305

Kathy Grimes won the Cassia County Fair & Rodeo in 16.31 for $3,931, was second at Canby for $4,784, fifth at Moses Lake for $2,825 and seventh at Gooding for $1,858. Her $13,398 is the fourth-biggest week on the board and moved her from 17th to 16th.

That puts her $1,305 behind Austyn Tobey, who holds 15th and the last NFR spot at $91,862 after a $491 check at Cassia County. Seven days ago that gap was $11,110. Loralee Ward sits 17th at $87,679 after winning $5,649 at Moses Lake and $1,769 at Cassia County, and Summer Kosel moved up two to 18th on $4,402.

Above them, Lisa Lockhart holds 14th at $95,427 and Katelyn Scott 13th at $98,605. The five riders from 13th through 17th are separated by $10,926.

Twenty-one rodeos paid, and 20 riders won one

The week spread its winners around. Keyla Costa won the Moses Lake Round-Up in 17.10 for $7,061, the biggest check anyone outside the top 20 collected, and climbed seven spots to 50th — the largest jump on the board. Andee Haden won two, taking the Big 94.5 Country Topeka PRCA Rodeo in 16.95 and sharing Great Plains in 17.73 with Lanita Peirce. Riley Youngman also won two, the Juneau County Fair in 14.97 and Brown County in 17.23.

Elsewhere: Sloan McFarlane opened the week winning Lynden in 14.67; Piper Cordes won the Eastern Montana Fair in 17.26; Ilyssa Riley took Wichita Falls in 14.80; Buffy Walchli won the Annual World’s Oldest Continuous Rodeo at Payson in 17.61; Rene Leclercq won Lethbridge in 14.96 for $2,942; Kristi Cole won the Stockyards Pro Rodeo in 13.21 and was second at North Texas; Ashley Castleberry won North Texas in 17.14; Tonia Forsberg won Norco in 15.68; Lindsay Leverington won Mountain Grove in 15.37; Sarah Atchison won Steamboat Springs in 17.49; Lindsey Beech won St. Croix Valley in 16.34; and Stephanie Fryar won the Johnny Ackel Memorial in 15.15.

Heidi Gunderson climbed four to 23rd on $6,302, Anita Ellis three to 26th on $5,890, Emma Smith four to 40th on $4,614 and Hailey Garrison Graham four to 65th on $3,044. Forty-five riders on the projected top 70 cashed at least one check this week.

Projected World Standings: Top 70

Our unofficial projected standings start from the WPRA’s posted world standings and add the money each rider wins at rodeos finishing August 17-23, as payouts post. The table shows the math: what each rider had entering the week, what she has won so far, and her projected total. Rank movement is shown once the week is complete.

Base: the WPRA’s posted world standings, updated August 20, 2026. The WPRA has not yet audited the rodeos of August 17-23, so the base column still reflects money won through August 16 and the week column is ours. Move compares each rider’s place on the WPRA board entering the week with her place on the projected board now.
