WOO HOO!!! That is great news. I had originally heard that neither of them had a qualified score in the first round.

There is still a long way to go in the event but it would be great to see them both pick up a check there. BJ is looking great in the standings but we all know that they have to keep going or that can change quickly. Fred has had a string of bad luck between his injury in Reno (All I can say is OUCH!) and the spider bite that put him in the hospital during Cowboy Christmas. A big check could give him the push he needs heading into the last half of the year to move him from 25th to that all important top 15. I also have to acknowledge Josh Mulholland from Richland Center. He has been in a bit of a slump this year but is capable of some great rides. It is good to see him having a good event.

Again thanks for the update!

Thanks for the final results! Looks like it was another great year for the Grand Daddy of them All! It is good to see Dustin pick up a big win. He is one talented rider and made a great World Champ. I would love to see him in great position to make a run for it going into the NFR again this year.

Always great to see BJ and Fred add some cash to their pockets as well. BJ looks pretty good sitting in 5th. With all the cash won it looks like Fred slipped a few spots in the standings but still has far less official rodeos and kept from slipping too far!
