Twelve cowgirls in each of the Women’s Professional Rodeo Association’s 13 breakaway roping circuits finished the 2026 ProRodeo season inside the top 12 of the unofficial year-end circuit standings, the line that sends them to circuit finals that open Oct. 9 in Minot, North Dakota, and run into January.
Each cowgirl earns money in one circuit, and her top-12 finish there earns her a seat at that circuit’s finals. Each circuit crowns a year-end and an average champion, and those titles carry a berth at next July’s NFR Open. The WPRA’s year-end files are stamped Oct. 2 and remain subject to audit.
Jordan Minor finished with more circuit money than any cowgirl in any circuit. She climbed from $14,648 on Aug. 25 to $38,283 in the Columbia River, Pendleton win included, across 35 rodeos. Bradi Whiteside held Maple Leaf at $36,404, and Josie Conner took the Wilderness at $34,224. The Wilderness is also the deepest finals of the year, with five cowgirls past $26,000. Texas, though, drew the toughest line: Rheagan Cotton made the field at No. 12 with $13,220, the highest cut in any circuit.
The Last Month Moved the Line
Four circuits changed hands after our August update. Josie Mousel passed Sierra Lee in the Badlands, Conner overtook Carly Bedke in the Wilderness, Britney Butzer moved past Sierra Clement in First Frontier, and Taylor Raupe edged reigning world champion Taylor Munsell in the Prairie by $80. Rookies Jaci Hammons (Texas), Sage Dunlap (Southeastern) and Raelynn Johnson (Great Lakes) all held on. Sixteen rookies made top-12 fields in all.
Danielle Lowman won the Turquoise on just eight rodeos. Elsewhere, the last spot came down to dollars. Tracey Brennan holds First Frontier’s last spot by $18 over Kelsey King, Adrienne Trainor beat Maggie Stewart for the Great Lakes’ No. 12 by $26, and Kelsey Ferguson held Montana’s by $77 over Celie Salmond.
Here is every finals field, in the order the finals run.
