After a tough year of hauling and competition, Ryann Packard from Sun City, KS, made it all worthwhile when she claimed the 2017 NYCHA Junior Youth World Finals at the Summer Spectacular.
Ryann, who came into the event with a 14 point lead, rode Sir Stylish Lizzy to mark 211 in the final and claim the championship.
Things didn’t always go her way in the go rounds, scoring 199 and 200.
She told CHTO’s Ruby Cobb that she had a lot of fun throughout youth week.
Reserve champion was Faith Farris who rode Quite The Fat Cat and finished the year 11 points behind Ryann.
