Pair of Bull Riding Titles Lead Rodeo Performances This Spring

April 14, 2025

 As the spring season rolls along the Dodge City rodeo team has three competitions under their belt this spring looking to finish the spring season strong with two more remaining and try to earn some spots at the College National Finals Rodeo in Casper, Wyoming. 
 
Most recently the Conquistadors competed at the Southwestern Oklahoma State University Rodeo in Weatherford, Oklahoma, and had three competitors finish in the standings, with several other strong showings. The Conqs women's and men's teams would finish seventh overall at the rodeo. 
 
Kyle Cheney picked up the win in the bull riding competition posting a 70 point in the long round and then a ride of 74 points in the short round to finish with a 144. 
 
Tavi Ford earned third place in the bull riding competition at the SWOSU Rodeo as he won the long round with a 77-point ride. 
 
Also scoring for the Conqs was Montana Heller who finished fifth overall in goat tying with a 16.2. Heller went 8.2 seconds in the long round and then went eight seconds in the short round finishing third in that short round. 
 
The week before saw the Conqs compete at the Garden City CC Rodeo and Trevor Taghon earned a first-place finish with a 70-point ride in the bull riding competition. Chestin Rohman and Easton Rohr tied for ninth place in the team roping event as a header and heeler, respectively with a time of 8.7. 
 
Two more rodeos remain to compete in this spring for the Conqs as they will compete in Hays, Kansas on April 17th-19th and in Guymon, Oklahoma on April 24th-26th.
