Sherry Cervi after winning the first performance in Weatherford

With a time of 17.41 seconds, Sherry Cervi is the early leader in the barrel racing at the Parker County Sheriff’s Posse Frontier Days in Weatherford.

Cervi was riding Stinger, a horse that helped Ryann Pedone make her first NFR, on Thursday night.

“It was a blast, I’ve been trying to learn to ride him in a week and I’m grateful for the opportunity to ride him,” she said. “Ryann told me he’s part human and he is. He’s a very smart horse.”

This was Cervi’s first appearance at the rodeo in Weatherford.
