Brooklin Baukol came out firing this morning at the College National Finals Rodeo! 🔥
Brooklin stopped the clock in 2.0 seconds, splitting 4th in the round and moving into 6th place in the aggregate after two head.
The grit and determination she's shown all season continue to shine on the national stage. We're excited to watch her keep competing and making the most of this opportunity.
Amazing job, Brooklin!

Georgia enters her fifth year at MSU-Northern as a three-time CNFR qualifier with an impressive list of accomplishments that includes multiple professional rodeo wins, the 2024 Montana Circuit Finals Breakaway Roping Round Championship, and being named the 2024 Montana Rookie Breakaway Roper.

Her 2025-2026 season was highlighted by:
🏆 NWC Rodeo #2 – 2nd Place Breakaway Roping
🏆 MSU Rodeo #1 – Goat Tying Short Round & Average Champion
🏆 MSU Rodeo #2 – Breakaway Roping Long Round Winner
🏆 MSU-Northern Rodeo – Breakaway Long Round Winner, Goat Tying Average Champion & Women's All-Around Champion

When asked about being a college athlete, Georgia shared:

*"Being a college athlete is very fulfilling. A lot of days start early and end late, and it can feel exhausting trying to balance everything. At the same time, it's really rewarding being part of a team that becomes like a second family. Some of the best memories come from traveling together, celebrating wins, and working toward the same goals."*

On how NIRA has helped her grow:

*"College rodeo has helped me grow as a competitor both mentally and physically. Competing against talented athletes every weekend pushes you to improve, stay disciplined, and learn how to handle pressure. It's taught me resilience, consistency, and how to trust the work I've put in."*

Georgia credits her success to her family, coaches, and friends.

*"Having people in my corner who push me harder and help along the way has made a huge difference in my growth, both as a competitor and as a person."*

🤠 One Thing She Can't Go to the Rodeo Without:

*"I can't pick just one—my AirPods, a Cola Celsius, and my dog."*
