Jackie Crawford Crosses the $1 Million Mark in WPRA Career Earnings, 1st Roper to Achieve this in WPRA History
By Ann Bleiker
This past weekend Jackie Crawford finished fourth in the breakaway roping at Liberty Hill, Texas, and while not a No. 1 finish it will be a run she will always remember as it propelled her over the $1 million mark in career earnings in the Women’s Professional Rodeo Association. The 2.0 second run earned her $2,153 to bring her career earnings to $1,001,149. She becomes the first roper in WPRA history to cross this milestone. All others that have crossed this mark have been barrel racers. Crawford has collected all of her earnings with a rope – breakaway, team roping and tie-down roping.
“Oh my gosh I didn’t ever think about that check pushing me over that mark,” stated Crawford. “That was lots of little bits of money to get that million for sure. It is wild to think all those little checks at the WPRA World Finals could build to this. So cool, so cool.”
