Wrangler Tour ends in Dallas with rodeo to crown event
champions
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. – The stars will shine in Texas
as total of 16 world champions with a combined 52 world titles highlight the
79-contestant field for the Wrangler ProRodeo Tour Championship presented by
Texas Stampede, the culminating event on the 2007 Wrangler ProRodeo Tour. Dallas
also marks the final event that counts prize money toward the 2007 Crusher
Rentals PRCA World Standings and qualification to the Wrangler National Finals
Rodeo.
Just
as in past years, the Wrangler ProRodeo Tour Championship will be a major
determining factor in the race for world titles. Big paydays in Dallas could
lead to even bigger conquests in Las Vegas in December. The Wrangler ProRodeo
Tour Championship, the concluding rodeo of the four-leg Ariat Playoff Series,
which doled out $1.62 million in prize money.
Competitors in Dallas will compete for a share of the
$550,000 purse when the three-day event starts Nov. 9 at the American Airlines
Center. Action from Dallas will be televised on Fox Sports Net, with three
separate one-hour telecasts beginning the week of Nov. 16. In addition, CBS
Sports will air highlights from the final round either before or after –
depending on the market – the network’s coverage of the NFL on Dec.
2.
Action takes place at 7:30 p.m. (CT) the first two
nights. All 10 contestants in each event compete the first two nights. The
semifinals, which will feature the top eight competitors in each event after two
rounds, get under way at 2 p.m. Nov. 11, with the four-person final round
immediately following.
Four-time and reigning World Champion All-Around Cowboy
Trevor Brazile highlights the field. He is joined by three other reigning world
champions in attendance – bareback rider Will Lowe of Canyon, Texas; team roping
heeler Allen Bach of Weatherford, Texas; and saddle bronc rider Chad Ferley of
Oehrichs, S.D.
Lowe,
a three-time world champion, and Ferley lead a group of six defending champions
from the 2006 Dallas event, a group that includes team ropers Speed Williams and
Clay O’Brien Cooper, tie-down roper Blair Burk and two-time world champion
barrel racer Sherry Cervi.
Another champion to watch for in Dallas is Cody Ohl, the
reigning and five-time world titlist in tie-down roping and 2001 Dallas
champion. Ohl, of Hico, Texas, is making his comeback after missing the previous
three months following rotator cuff surgery.
Josh
Peek of Pueblo, Colo., who is chasing Brazile in the all-around race, is the
event’s lone two-event cowboy, having qualified for Dallas in both steer
wrestling and tie-down roping.
Despite qualifying for Dallas by finishing the 21-stop
Wrangler ProRodeo Tour and three subsequent Ariat Playoff Series rodeos in the
top 10 in their respective standings, four cowboys and one cowgirl opted instead
to compete in the Canadian Finals Rodeo, Nov. 7-11 in Edmonton,
Alberta.
It wasn't an easy choice, however.
“It
was a real tough decision because both are great rodeos,” said tie-down roper
Matt Shiozawa of Chubbuck, Idaho, who won the Wrangler NFR tie-down roping
average title in 2006 and is headed back for his third consecutive Wrangler NFR
when the event starts Dec. 6 in Las Vegas. “I’ve made such an effort to go north
this year and I have so much invested in it. That makes it hard not to go to
Edmonton. They’ve got a good rodeo up there, and Dallas can definitely help you
in the long run. I guess with hindsight, I’ll look back in a couple of weeks and
see if it was a good decision.”
Steer
wrestler Lee Graves of Calgary, Alberta, the 2005 world champion, also elected
to bypass Dallas to shoot for a sixth Canadian bulldogging championship that
would tie the record held by Bud Butterfield.
Legendary saddle bronc rider Rod Hay, the owner of a
record eight Canadian crowns, chose Edmonton over Dallas, as did bareback rider
Heath Ford of Greeley, Colo., and barrel racer Lindsay Sears, who leaped into
world-title contention after winning $22,500 at the Ariat Playoff Series rodeo
in Omaha, Neb. Despite having a chance to close the gap – which presently stands
at some $30,000 – in Dallas, Sears, of Nanton, Alberta, will compete in front of
her home-province fans at the CFR.
The
Playoffs started in Caldwell, Idaho, with the top 35 contestants from the
21-city Wrangler ProRodeo Tour and each event champion from the 2007 Dodge
National Circuit Finals Rodeo. After Caldwell, the field was whittled to the top
22 from the cumulative Tour standings, the Caldwell playoff champs, plus DNCFR
titlists, as the top athletes headed for the second Ariat Playoff rodeo, the
Puyallup (Wash.) Pro Rodeo.
From
there, the top 11 in the Tour standings and each event’s overall champion in
Puyallup advanced to Omaha. The top 10 following Omaha qualified for
Dallas.
Proceeds from the event benefit Children’s Medical
Center, the only Dallas healthcare facility that deals exclusively with a
variety of diseases and disorders among children, and the pediatric programs at
The University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, which is among the top
medical centers in the nation for educating health professionals and conducting
significant medical research.

2. Rodeo News and Notes
Great
Lakes’ best head to Louisville. Qualification for the 2008 Dodge National Circuit Finals
Rodeo continues this weekend with the Dodge Great Lakes Circuit Finals Rodeo,
Nov. 8-10 at Freedom Hall in Louisville, Ky. It’s the fourth of 12 circuit
finals rodeos that will ultimately send the country’s top riders and ropers to
the DNCFR.
Action
from the three-round rodeo starts each day at 7:30 p.m. ET
At the
2007 DNCFR, the stakes to win were even higher than in past years. Event winners
not only received a one-year lease to a new Dodge pick-up truck, but also
received an automatic berth in the first two Ariat Playoff Series rodeos in
Caldwell, Idaho, and Puyallup, Wash. There, the DNCFR winners had a chance at
some big paychecks and, if things went well, an opportunity to advance further
into the Playoff Series.
Year-end
winners in each of the PRCA’s 12 circuits, as well as the average winners at
each circuit finals rodeo, earn a berth to the Dodge National Circuit Finals
Rodeo, held each March in Pocatello, Idaho. The top 24 contestants in each event
battle it out at the DNCFR for the title of national champion.
The PRCA
circuit system was created in 1975 to recognize competitors who might never have
a chance to qualify for the Wrangler National Finals Rodeo. The circuit cowboys
and cowgirls compete throughout the year in a designated circuit (usually near
their home), and top competitors from each circuit qualify for their circuit’s
finals.
Wrangler NFR specialty acts. The
specialty acts for this year’s Wrangler National Finals Rodeo have been
selected. Nikki Moran, Blake Goode and Jason Goodman will be entertaining the
fans at the Thomas & Mack Center during the television breaks of the
Wrangler NFR’s two live performances. Those performances are Round 4 on Dec. 9
and Round 10 on Dec. 15.
Meet
and Greet at Convention. For the first
time ever, the PRCA National Convention will host a Meet and Greet session at
its Trade Show that will be open to the public. Rodeo fans who make the trip to
Las Vegas for this year’s Wrangler National Finals Rodeo can stop by the South
Point Hotel, Casino and Spa on Dec. 6 from 12-2 p.m. PT and walk through the
Trade Show exhibit halls and interact with their favorite barrelman, clown, bullfighter, announcer or
specialty act. This will be the first
opportunity for the general public to attend the Trade Show in the 61-year
history of the PRCA National Convention.
Wrangler NFR media credentials. Media personnel interested in covering the
49th Wrangler National Finals Rodeo, Dec. 6-15 in Las Vegas, must
have a completed credentials application form sent to the PRCA by Nov. 15.
Applicants should fax the application to the PRCA Communications Department at
(719) 548-4889.
A
credentials packet for the Wrangler NFR was sent out recently. For additional
copies, please contact the PRCA Communications Department at (719)
528-4746.
