Grann-d Champions

Minnewaukan's Bobbi Grann and Spiritwood's Austin Visser each grabbed all-around titles at the state rodeo finals on Sunday.

Grann claimed the girls' all-around title with 329 points, advancing to the national finals rodeo in July. Visser put together 330.5 points for the boys' title, despite his top place being a pair of thirds.

Grann Leading All-Around

I first met Bobbi Grann at state basketball a couple of years ago, taking in an interview after watching her single-handidly taking apart a team (I am struggling to recall who) with her defensive abilities.

I had heard Grann was better at rodeo than any other sport, and she proved her worth this weekend, leading the all-around at the girls' NDHSRA state finals.

I'm certainly not going to fill you full of guanto and pick apart what she did well and this and that when it comes to the world of rodeo. I'm a casual fan and that is about it. I appreciate the skill that goes into the events, without really even knowing what goes into it.

So with that in mind, I'll turn you over to the Press's Dustin Monke, who put together the story on how the day went. Click here to give it a read.
