Joey Williams, a Montana cowgirl and three-time WNFR qualifier in breakaway entered the event for the first time. She walked away with over $5,000 after winning the all-ages breakaway. Williams was riding a home-grown mare, Smokin Twayna – better known as Reba. She’s by their stud Smoke N Sunrise and out of Frenchmans Twayna, who is a full sister to Williams’ main rope horse Baybe.
