I received 1099-misc for money I won at team roping competitions - my hobby. My expenses are far more than the winnings. Do I still have to claim the 1099-misc?

I received 1099-misc for money I won at some team roping (rodeo event) competitions.  This is a hobby not business income.  My hobby expenses are far more than the income.  Do I still need to enter the 1099-misc into my federal return?  Can I claim the expenses for the same hobby?
