Trent Goscha Sportsmanship Award Established

The Carbondale Wild West Rodeo Association Board has established the Trent Goscha Sportsmanship Award which will be presented annually at the Finals Rodeo beginning in 2017 in memory of Trent. Trent was a bright light in the community helping with the local gymkhanas, participating in the Roaring Fork Ranch Roping and always a presence at the Carbondale Wild West Rodeo encouraging others to do their best. Trent, you will be missed.
