Cole Trainor has been gathering up some points in the Steer Wrestling these past two weekends and was the only member on the Men's team to qualify for the short round. Cole threw his steer in 5.8 seconds, which was fast enough to place 3rd in the long round but wasn't able to tip his short round steer over and took a no-time. 

 

"As a whole, I was really pleased with the way the entire  team performed and the way their horses worked," stated coach Drew Schrock.  "We had three place really well in the long round and quite a few just out of making the short round. The short round is made up of the ten fastest runs or best rides from the long round. Freshman Kaden Berger was just out of making it in two events. He placed 11th in the Steer Wrestling and 12th in the Tie-Down. It's not what we are striving for but I think it is important for them to stay positive and understand they aren't going to win them all, and that it is crucial to perform at the rodeo the same way they do in practice. I am also very proud of Sadie for making the tough decision to put her academics first and forfeit her run in the short round, ultimately that is what college rodeo is about, education. We have two weeks off before we leave for Casper the 16th-18th of April."
