1 For Immediate release Contact: Susan Kanode (817) Near capacity crowd enjoys final rodeo at 110 th National Western By Susan Kanode For the National Western Stock Show DENVER, (Jan. 24, 2016) --- When the 110 th annual National Western Stock Show came to a close on Sunday, there were some very happy contestants in the Denver Coliseum. A near capacity crowd of over 7,400 people were on hand to see the action. Jake Brown, Baylor Roche and Clay Smith are all coming off of their first Wrangler National Finals Rodeo qualifications and left with National Western titles. Brown, from Hillsboro, Texas, won the bareback riding with a total score of 252 points. He earned a total of $10,620. He also wowed the crowd earlier in the competition with a 90-point effort on Calgary Stampede s great bucking horse Reckless Margie. This is the same horse that took Tim O Connell to an 87-point score at the finals. O Connell from Zwingle, Iowa tied for the round win with Richmond Champion from The Woodlands, Texas, who rode Cervi Brother s Rodeo Houston s Gander Goose. Roche dominated the steer wrestling earning the title with a total of 13.0 seconds on three runs. His nearest competitor was Colorado s Josh Peek who made three runs in Roche from Tremonton, Utah earned $10,168 here. I think that the guys that were at the NFR have an edge at these building rodeos, Roche said. I feel like I m sharper than I have been in the past. I ve only had two weeks off. I had a pretty good finals and that helps give you momentum going into the new year. Clay Smith, from Broken Bow, Okla., roped at the 2015 NFR with Paul Eaves and their team roping partnership has stayed intact. Eaves has been to Las Vegas to compete in rodeo s championships four

2 times. Last December was Smith s first. With Smith doing the heading and Eaves heeling, they roped three steers in 16.7 seconds for a total of $7,006 each. Shelby Herrmann left Denver last year with a second place finish. This year, the Stephenville, Texas resident got the buckle and $11,387. She was the high-money winner at the rodeo and had a total time of seconds on three runs. This year s rodeo paid $466,672. Other winners Sam Spreadborough, Snyder, Texas, saddle bronc riding; Trevor Brazile, Decatur, Texas, tie-down roping; and Cody Campbell, Summerville, Ore., bull riding..
