The National Reining Horse Association will soon unveil a life-sized bronze Lawson Trophy at the entrance of the new OG&E Coliseum—a striking tribute to the horses, riders, and moments that define the sport.
More than a statue, the Lawson will stand as a landmark of grit, grace, and greatness, greeting competitors and fans for generations. For decades, the Lawson Trophy has been the ultimate award in reining—now, for the first time, it will be immortalized in bronze at a scale worthy of its meaning.
