Although good friends, both young ladies will be competing for their schools during the High School Rodeo at the Johnson County Fairgrounds this weekend. 

A break-away roping run is usually completed in approximately two seconds. When asked what they focus on during the short seconds before the calf is released, Olson said she focuses on where she wants her rope to go.
