Chadron State College Athletics

Martee transferred to Chadron State from Eastern Wyoming College at Torrington in 1978-79. Besides being on some great teams the next two years, she was the barrel racing champion in the Great Plains Region and placed fifth in the final national standings in 1978-79. Her individual winnings that year included first in both the barrel race and goat tying and the all-around cowgirl honors at the CSC rodeo.
A native of Minatare, Martee also placed frequently in both the barrels and goats and even won the breakaway roping at a rodeo her senior year.
After graduating, Martee competed on the pro rodeo circuit several years and qualified for the PRCA National Finals in the barrel race three times before focusing on training and selling barrel racing horses. Her father, Don Meter, was the national intercollegiate calf roping champion in 1956 while attending CSC, and her sister, Shelley, was the national intercollegiate all-around cowgirl in 1986-87 while she was at CSC.  In addition, Martee’s husband, Troy Pruitt, was the PRCA calf roping champion in 1990.
