ONTARIO, California – Bianchi®, a brand of The Safariland Group, congratulates Team Bianchi member Kenda Lenseigne on her win at the 2017 Cowboy Mounted Shooting Association (CMSA) National Championship, October 18 – 21 in Amarillo, Texas. Lenseigne added another record to her impressive repertoire at the CMSA World Championship winning the Overall Cowgirl title.
Lenseigne finished the competition in 63.04 seconds, placing above 324 competitors, both men and women, to take the overall win. A renowned competitor in the sport of Cowboy Mounted Shooting, Lenseigne holds numerous titles and records and has previously won this event four times. Since retiring with her mare, Sparky.

"Securing the CMSA World Championship Overall Cowgirl title was an exciting end to a very successful 2017 season for Sparky and me," said Lenseigne. "From regionals and nationals, to the World Championship, we placed overall at 25 of 26 events this year. We have put countless hours into training and practice, but just like in any other sport, that only goes so far. Superior gear meets hard work and determination halfway and Bianchi leather always gives me that extra edge."

"We are so proud to again congratulate Kenda and Sparky," said Scott Carnahan, vice president, for Safariland and Bianchi brands. "She is incredibly talented and we are consistently impressed with her sportsmanship. We are grateful to have Kenda as an ambassador for our brand and the sport as a whole."

During the 4-day championship event, Lenseigne was wearing her Bianchi exclusive Kenda Lenseigne Signature Series Smokechaser™ Cowboy belt and holster in black/white snakeskin.
