Recipient Laurel Cox is an undergraduate animal science and journalism at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. She has a passion for advocating for the industry and making an impact on the next generations of cowgirls.
Laurel and Durango Boots Market Manager Erin Delong stopped by the RFD-TV studio and spoke with Tammi Arender about Laurel’s journey, what this scholarship means, and why it is so important for Durango to recognize hard-working students.
