George advanced to the semifinals with a solid 5.5-second average, then carefully managed the round with a 3.2 to ensure she made the short round. In the finals, she went all in.

“I was talking to Hali [Williams] before we went and she asked what my game plan was, and I told her I was going for first,” George said. “The loop wasn’t the best, but I was glad it went on.”

The win didn’t just put money in her pocket—it punched her ticket to Sioux Falls for the coveted Governor’s Cup, Sept. 26–28, one of the richest breakaway roping events of the season.

“Puyallup is definitely a bucket-list rodeo, and being able to win it was a lot of fun,” George said.

In this podcast episode, George also breaks down her season strategy, her bond with her standout gelding Royce, and the momentum she hopes to carry into Sioux Falls and ultimately the National Finals Breakaway Roping.
