2026 Miss Rodeo Minnesota Titleholders
Miss Teen Rodeo Minnesota 2026
Mallory Boerboom
Living outside the small town of Wabasso, Minnesota, Mallory, Miss Teen Rodeo Minnesota, resides with her parents, Casey Jo and Bailey, along with her sister Riley. Growing up on the back of a horse, Mallory has always loved the animals. Starting first at seven-years-old going to the Lee-Mar Ranch barrel racing series through the summer, to joining the Minnesota Little Britches Rodeo Association in 5th grade - competing in barrels and breakaway roping. Now, Mallory does both Little Britches along with Minnesota High School Rodeo, competing in breakaway and team roping (header) events. Making it to the NLBRA finals (National Little Britches Rodeo Association) five times in Guthrie, Oklahoma in the breakaway roping, and once to the NHSRA finals (National High School Rodeo Association) in Rock Springs, Wyoming - also in the breakaway roping.
When she is not busy during the summer rodeo run, she works at a local meat locker. In her spare time, Mallory loves to draw the Western way of life on paper! One of her future goals is to hopefully share her talent with the world and sell her prints! Also, in her free time, Mallory likes to ride her young horses that she has started all herself from the ground up. Hoping that in the future, she can learn more about starting colts and maybe even have a future as a colt starter herself. Not fully decided on whether she is going to college or not, Mallory is an online PSEO student, going through a Christian college here in Minnesota.
Mallory is very grateful and excited to represent the wonderful state of Minnesota as Miss Teen Rodeo Minnesota 2026 - getting to share her love and knowledge of rodeo and her love for horses to people around the state!
Junior Miss Rodeo Minnesota 2026
Carlee Bayer
Carlee Bayer (pronounced BY‑er) is a 14‑year‑old, third‑generation cowgirl from Clearwater, Minnesota. She lives with her parents, Grant and Erin, and her brother, Reed, and is in 9th grade at Monticello High School.
For Carlee, rodeo isn’t just an activity - it’s part of her identity. Horses, riding, and barrel racing run deep in the Bayer family, and many of Carlee’s best memories come from time spent in the arena or out on the trail with the people she loves most. Whether they’re competing, trail riding, or cheering each other on, the Bayers share a strong bond built around horses and the Western way of life
Carlee competes in open races, slot races, and rodeos, but barrel racing is where her passion shines brightest. She thrives on the speed, adrenaline, and challenge of racing the clock.
One of Carlee’s proudest moments in rodeo has been carrying the American flag. For her, it’s more than a tradition—it’s an honor. Riding into the arena with the flag allows her to show gratitude for her country and for the men and women who serve it, blending her love of horses with something deeply meaningful.
Outside of the arena, Carlee keeps busy with basketball and dance. Dance challenges her in a different way, giving her another outlet to perform and grow, and the discipline she’s learned there carries over into everything she does.
Looking ahead, Carlee hopes to attend college while continuing to pursue the things she loves most - horses, rodeo, and dance. No matter where life takes her, she plans to keep competing, keep learning, and carry on the Bayer family’s cowgirl tradition for generations to come.
