Riding into the sunset

Wednesday, April 30th, 2008

This past weekend the National American University rodeo team hosted its two-day Maverick Rodeo.The whole episode of the elimination of athletics at NAU is a shame and the merits of the move could be debated back and forth. But this past weekend’s rodeo gave those highly-skilled athletes the opportunity to shine in their home arena. By all accounts, the rodeo was highly successful and was a great sendoff for a rodeo program that always competed at a high level.It’s truly a shame it was the last ride for the Maverick rodeo program.Andrew 

Amazing stuff from the CNFR

Here’s a great article from Casper’s Patrick Schmiedt about a cowgirl that won the Shane Drury “Nothing But Try” scholarship this year.

I didn’t know Shane Drury well and I never watched him ride a bull (just wrestle) but it sounds like Texie Rose embodies his competitive spirit to a T.
