Central Wyoming College's Men's and Women's rodeo teams took the trip to Chadron State College September 6-8, and did their best in making the trip worthwhile. The highlights from the three day long event included sophomore Jace Mayfield placing sixth in tie-down roping average and fifth in steer wrestling. Eian Smith was the other placer from the men's side, as he garnered a fifth place finish in bareback riding. Tricia Lammers led the way for the Lady Rustlers, scoring fourth in the average for goat tying. Faye Hellyer joined Lammers in placing, as she secured 12th in the average for barrel racing.

"We are a young team compared to years past," said Head Rodeo Coach Andrew Schrock, "but there is a lot of talent on the team with some nice horses. The cattle were really strong but the team handled the situation well. Jace Mayfield is back and healthy, and had a really good weekend. His short round calf strained, otherwise he would have won the short round in both the Steer Wrestling and Tie-Down Roping. Tricia Lammers also had a solid rodeo. She had a tough goat in the long round but made a great run and followed it up with a solid short round run. Eian Smith and Faye Hellyer were the top placers out of the Freshmen, we are looking for them to have a solid season."
