Whitney Simmons enters her first year as CSU Rodeo Head Coach. Simmons, a Wyoming native, developed a love for agriculture rodeo & horsemanship in her upbringing. Embracing her passion, she carried it to Colorado, where she remains deeply connected to the agricultural and rodeo scene. Her journey led her to CSU Rodeo, where she's been a dedicated member for six years serving as an advisor, assistant coach, and most recently head coach. Witnessing and contributing to the program's growth has been worth every effort put forth into this team. Now a proud mom to a little girl, Whitney finds joy in balancing motherhood while actively supporting the rodeo team, and working alongside two remarkable rodeo athletes and coaches. She feels blessed to raise her daughter in an evolving industry that champions growth, community and tradition.
