In the Top 20, she sang "Jolene" by Dolly Parton, whereas her fellow contestant Brett Young sang "Like I Loved You" in a duet with Young. The performance was enough to send both into Top 14.
Riley, however, could not get into Top 10, but she later got an opportunity to sing for the judges to win a chance in the Top 10. She sang It Alan Jackson's "It Must Be Love," but the judges did not choose her and thus eliminated her from the competition.
