Caldwell Night Rodeo was the highlight of the week, with four opportunities to win worth nearly half a million dollars in added money, and the common thread running through almost every team on this list.
Add in Gooding Pro Rodeo, Moses Lake Round-Up Rodeo and Cassia County Fair & Rodeo, all four stacked into the same Idaho-and-Northwest stretch, and the money added up quick for the guys on the ProRodeo trail.
These were the top five money earners in the team roping over the week of Aug. 17-23.
Nelson Wyatt and Jonathan Torres led the week almost entirely on the strength of Caldwell Night Rodeo. They won the first round in 4.6 seconds for $4,604 a man, added a check in the finals for $984 each, then turned in the rodeo’s fastest average time at 15.4 seconds on three head to win it for $6,907 a man. They closed out the week with a third-place run at Cassia County Fair & Rodeo for $2,062 each and a second-place tie at Moses Lake Round-Up Rodeo for $4,876 apiece.
Kaleb Driggers and Junior Nogueira put together a big three-rodeo week worth $17,395 a man. They tied for sixth in the Caldwell first round for $1,301 apiece, then backed it up with fourth in the Caldwell average for $4,204 each. From there they won Gooding in 4.1 seconds for $6,038 a man, and closed the week by winning Moses Lake in 4.0 seconds for $5,852 apiece.
Tanner Tomlinson and Wesley Thorp pocketed $10,584 each, with the bulk of it coming from a big finish in the Caldwell average. They tied for third in the Caldwell finals for $677 apiece and finished with a 15.9 on three head to be second in the average for $6,006 a man. They added a fourth-place check at Moses Lake in 4.5 seconds for $3,901 each.
Brye Crites and Ross Ashford stayed consistent across all four rounds at Caldwell Night Rodeo and added a Gooding check for $9,919 apiece on the week. They tied for second in the Caldwell first round for $3,703 each, tied for fifth in the finals for $287 apiece, and picked up a seventh-place average check for $1,501 each. They rounded out the week with a third-place tie at Gooding for $4,428 a man.
