The Clarendon College Rodeo team is currently in second place in the Southwest Region.
Much of the men’s team success can be attributed to two cousins from Winterset, Iowa – Riggin and Tegan Smith. They are sitting in first and second place in the Saddle Bronc Riding event. Tegan is splitting 3rd-4th in the Bull Riding making him the 1st place all-around cowboy.
Others contributing to the men’s team success include Brody Rankin, a freshman from Roaring Springs; Casey McCleskey, a sophomore from Clarendon; Brayden Roberson, a sophomore from Miami, Texas; Josh Green, a sophomore from Wetumpka, AL, and Taylor Russell, a freshman from Lipscomb.
With only one rodeo left this year, the men’s team is 210 points behind long time powerhouse Tarleton State University in 1st and only 10 points in front of the 3rd best team Weatherford College.
The final rodeo of the regular season will be held in Stephenville April 25-27.
Only two teams from the Southwest Region will advance to the College National Finals held in Casper, Wyo., June 9-15. The CC men’s team is working hard to compete to the best of their ability this weekend and finish in the top two teams.
