CHEYENNE, WY – Glenham pro rodeo cowgirl Summer Kosel set an unofficial arena record Wednesday in the preliminary round of Barrel Racing at the Cheyenne Frontier Days rodeo.
Kosel, riding a horse called FireWaterFrenchFame, turned in a time of 17.02 seconds to advance to the semifinal round on July 28, while earning $7,414.84.
Kosel said that the horse, also known as “Apollo,” is quite a horse.
Kosel, who is 36, said that she has been around and on horses for quite a long time.
Kosel said that competing in rodeos and taking care of four kids keeps her busy.
Kosel made the Barrel Racing finals in the Central Wyoming Fair Rodeo in Casper last week, finishing second. In 2022, Kosel has earned over $25,000 in prize money. This is the seventh time this year that she has won in the preliminary round of an event.
