FORT WORTH, Texas – The National Cutting Horse Association (NCHA) is proud to announce Kate Roberson of Mineral Wells, Texas, as the recipient of the 2026 NCHA Todd Drummond Award. Roberson will be formally recognized on Friday, December 11, ahead of the Open Semifinals at the 2026 NCHA Metallic Cat World Championship Futurity in Fort Worth, Texas.

 

The Todd Drummond Award recognizes an outstanding youth member who demonstrates excellence in academics, extracurricular activities, and cutting horse involvement, honoring individuals who exemplify leadership, dedication, and character both inside and outside the arena.

Her competitive accomplishments include multiple NCHA Eastern National Championships titles and the 2026 National High School Rodeo Association Girls Cutting Reserve World Championship.

 

Known for her strong work ethic, sportsmanship, and dedication to others, Roberson exemplifies the qualities the Todd Drummond Award was established to recognize.
