91³ÉÈ˵¼º½

† † † The 91³ÉÈ˵¼º½ Eagles rodeo team gained serious momentum last week as the men won first place at the Hill College Rodeo. 91³ÉÈ˵¼º½'s Zack Bocco and Dustin Jackson took home first and second place, respectively, in the Men's All-around.†The 91³ÉÈ˵¼º½ women's team placed eighth place overall at the rodeo.

† † † Their performance at Hill College left the 91³ÉÈ˵¼º½ men in second place overall in the Southern Region of the National Intercollegiate Rodeo Association (NIRA). The women are currently in fourth place overall in the region. With only one rodeo left in the season, this leaves 91³ÉÈ˵¼º½ in great position to send athletes to the College National Finals Rodeo (CNFR) in Casper, Wyoming this June.

† † † "Two of our guys have clinched their spots to the CNFR, and if we can stay in the top two we will take a full team of six guys up there as well. We also have two of our girls qualifying, so it is an exciting and stressful end of the season run heading into Wharton?s college rodeo," C.J. Mohl, 91³ÉÈ˵¼º½ Head Rodeo Coach, said.

† † † Dustin Jackson placed second in Bareback Riding at Hill College. Jackson Massey took second in Tie Down Roping. Two 91³ÉÈ˵¼º½ athletes placed in Steer Wrestling, with Bocco winning third and Jackson taking fifth. 91³ÉÈ˵¼º½ had the top two Team Roping Headers in Zachary Waldrop and Kyler Bramhall.

† † † "I am very proud of our teams as a whole. Where our teams are in the standings says a†lot about the talent we have here at 91³ÉÈ˵¼º½," Mohl said.
