We will highlight a different member of our rodeo team each full month of the semester. This will be September, October, November, February, March, and April. Athletes chosen to be our Member of the Month will be voted on by all NIRA card holders here at Trinity Valley and should be based upon their scholastic achievements, success in the rodeo arena, personal contributions to the team and their teammates. It will be exciting getting to know these team members on a advanced personal level.
