Junior rider Alex Dixon was named Reserve High Point Rider for the morning show after placing first in Reining and second in Open Horsemanship.

Senior Shelby Coble also placed second in Level 2 Horsemanship and third in Ranch riding.
In the afternoon show, the Lady Flames again earned Reserve High Point Team honors as Anderson, Coble, and Lundin claimed blue ribbons in Rookie B Horsemanship, Level 2 Horsemanship, and Beginner Horsemanship, respectively.
Senior Makenzie Cox placed second in Level 1 Horsemanship, as did Isenhour in Beginner Horsemanship, while Dixen (Reigning) and Anna Norris (Rookie B Horsemanship) earned white ribbons for third place.
