Evan Bottini

Sr Ribbon Roping Running

​LaJunta, CO
All-Around Cowboy from LaJunta, CO, took home the saddle of Senior Ribbon Roping World Champion.  Competing with his partner Haiden Thompson of WY, they came home victorious.  Competing in team roping, tie down roping, steer wrestling and ribbon roping he carries himself well in and out of the arena.  That is why the NLBRA board selected him to be one of five young men to represent the NLBRA at the Junior Ironman. 
Bottini will make the trip back to the Lazy E Arena in Guthrie, OK the beginning of March.  There he will compete during the Cinch Timed Events Championship and be surrounded by some of the biggest names in professional rodeo.  He will compete in team roping both heading and heeling, tie down roping and steer wrestling while trying to grasp the Junior Ironman title.
