Meet the Member Wes McConnel

story by Lindsay King Some might say Wes McConnel and his wife Kelly are the Lane and Kelly of modern-day rodeo. After growing up as acquaintances in Bloomfield, New Mexico, the couple hauled to a rodeo together as their first date after returning to their hometown. “We had known each other for a long time and my mom used to be a principal here. Kelly started teaching at the school, so my mom told me…

Meet the Member Tyler Montano

story by Lindsay King Tyler Montano is shooting for the stars, to land among the rodeo ones that is. This Gallup, New Mexico, troubadour has set his sights on breaching the top fifty PRCA ropers in the next five years so he can hit the bigger rodeos. For now, he spreads his time between Arizona, New Mexico and Stephenville, Texas. “I did junior rodeo for a while but then I quit. In seventh grade my…

Meet the Member Teresa Brevik

story by Lindsay King The smile in Teresa Brevik’s voice is just a small physical symbol of the pure joy she has found in life – both inside and out of the arena. “I wouldn’t trade it for the world. I was born and raised in rodeo,” said the New Mexico native from Farmington. “I entered my first rodeo when I was eight years old and I won the breakaway that night. I was hooked…

Meet the Member John Clymo

story by Lindsay King An astute pilot of more than just airplanes, John Clymo has lived all over the world in his 63 years. However, he’s finally back where he feels most at home: Edgewood, New Mexico. “One side of my family is from New Mexico and they are all mostly bronc riders. My uncle rode in the PRCA, he planted the seed. I was a terrible bronc rider though. My mom encouraged me to…

Meet the Member Erin Bales

story by Lindsay King Hailing from Sheridan, Wyoming, rodeo and the western way of life was in Erin Bales’ blood from day one. She grew up on the family ranch with her little brother, and their parents made sure they were in junior rodeo as soon as possible. “We moved to Texas when I was 8, but my parents still made sure my brother and I were always entered in playdays and junior rodeos,” said…

Meet the Member Lance Tolbert

story by Lindsay King For the last thirty years, steer wrestling has been an extension of the person that Lance Tolbert is and ever wanted to be. As he approaches half a century, his knees are protesting his passion. “I have avoided injury for most of my career until now. The hardest part of rodeo is staying healthy, but as I have gotten older it gets so much harder. Especially in the steer wrestling. Now…

Meet the Member Kenny Wright

story by Lindsay King Kenny Wright nonchalantly recounts the time a bull snapped both of his femurs nine years ago, it’s just how he looks at most things really. “I was at a pro rodeo in Crazy Horse, South Dakota, when I got hung up in my rope. It was a young bull and he took off running. He stepped on one of my legs and that tripped him up so he fell and that…

Meet the Member Sheldon Milton

story by Siri Stevens “I feel we took a great step coming on board with Rodeo News. It’s going to help the committees, contestants, and sponsors,” said NMRA president, Sheldon Milton. “Rodeo News will help us get the word out there more.” Sheldon has been a part of the NMRA as a judge for the past few years. “I’ve been around rodeo my whole life – my grandmother was the New Mexico High School Rodeo…
