On the Cover : Two-time world champion Brittany Pozzi Tonozzi has waited a longtime to mark off the San Antonio Stock Show and Rodeo as a bucket victory for her. She was able to do that in February as she kept her momentum going during the winter time. As a result of her success during the winter rodeos she is currently ranked No. 1 in the world standings.
