PRCA Standings Shuffle: Six Move up in Top 15
Every dollar earned on the ProRodeo road is as good as gold, particularly during the 2020 season due to COVID-19 cutting down the opportunities to score big and climb the Top 15 in the PRCA | RAM World Standings.
Despite the limited opportunities to compete June 15-21, the six ProRodeo competitions worth a collective $117,552 gave six ProRodeo athletes a boost within the Top 15 of their respective events.
Cowboys know it’s easier to maintain a position at the top than it is to play catch-up when trying to qualify for the Wrangler National Finals Rodeo. Every dollar counts, and making the Top 15 in the world standings early establishes a solid base and builds a cowboy’s confidence during the summer run.
The cowboys who improved their position within the Top 15 last week include the following:
Three Spots
• J. Tom Fisher moved from 15th to 12th in steer roping.
Two Spots
• Haven Meged moved from 11th to ninth in tie-down roping.
• Colten Fritzlan moved from 16th to 14th in bull riding.
One Spot
• Hunter Cure moved from 13th to 12th in steer wrestling.
• Adam Gray moved from 13th to 12th in tie-down roping.
• Westyn Hughes moved from 16th to 15th in tie-down roping.
More changes are likely in the world standings as June closes out with seven ProRodeo competitions plus the World’s Oldest Rodeo in Prescott, Ariz., which begins June 29.
