Chancelee Flanagan is 16 years old and a member
of the Lone Star High School Rodeo Assoc., the East Texas High School Rodeo
Team and the Texas High School Region IV Rodeo Assoc. She is the East Texas
High School Rodeo Queen and Secretary and competes in Barrel Racing, Pole
Bending, Goat Tying, and Breakaway Roping.
Chancelee has been involved in rodeos for 6 years
now and has owned horses all her life - her father was a former pro Steer
Wrestler. She acquired her horse Missy at ten years of age and worked with her
father to train her for barrel racing, pole bending and breakaway roping.
Chancelee has been competing with Missy ever
since. Chancelee has won numerous awards from rodeo. In '95 winning the MDA
High Point Saddle, and the Kilgore Saddle Club high point overall buckle and
the East Texas Horse Show Assoc. High Point buckle. In '96 winning the Texas
State Challenge Show Champion Barrel Racer and Pole Bender and again in '97
along with the Champion Barrel racer and the Kilgore Saddle Club Youth Council
high point buckle. In '98 she won the Top Liner Champion Barrel Racer and Pole
Bender. In '99 placed 3rd in Poles and 4th in barrels at the Lone Star High
School Rodeo Assoc. Finals.
In April of '99 Missy was attacked by three dogs
taking her off work for at least 3 months.Chancelee borrowed her neighbor's
horse and started riding her. The combination really hit it off well and
started winning almost every rodeo they went to. The pair competed at the
International Finals Youth Rodeo in '99, ending up 21st out of 150 contestants
in poles and 25th in barrels out of 147 contestants.
It took a little longer than expected for Missy to
recover. She finally came back at the beginning of '00 and she came back
strong. Chancelee and Missy placed 2nd in poles and 4th in barrels at the Lone
Star High Star Rodeo Assoc. Finals and in the top 15 for the year in Barrels,
Poles and Goats. At the IFYR in 2000
Chancelee plans on going to college on a
four-year rodeo scholarship, majoring in Computer Software or Accounting and
looking to become a Computer Software Specialist or an Accountant.
Chancelee aims to make it to the National Finals
High School Rodeo and the PRCA National Finals Rodeo and plans on continuing
her rodeo dreams for as long as possible.
