Fun Facts about Creek: This year has been filled with lessons for the three-time Wrangler National Finals Rodeo qualifier. The biggest lesson was to not get distracted and keep his focus. When he started doing that, he was back in the world standings. He finished the regular season in sixth place. A year ago, he was in 13th and moved up to 11th. In 2021, he earned the Rookie of the Year title and finished fifth. Last fall, Creek elected to come home and go to more rodeos in the Prairie Circuit. That paid off with a win at the RAM Prairie Circuit Finals and he is planning on that momentum carrying over to the NFR. Creek lost both of his parents before he was a teenager. He was raised by his aunt who has supported his desire to be among the best bull riders in the world.
