Fifty-seven of college rodeo’s top team ropers are headed to the Ford Wyoming Center in Casper, Wyoming, for the College National Finals Rodeo, June 14–20, with a collegiate national team roping title on the line.
The CNFR is the National Intercollegiate Rodeo Association’s season-ending championship. The team ropers qualified out of NIRA’s 12 regions with the top three in each region’s standings plus team members qualifying for the CNFR. They’ll rope in three go-rounds in Casper before the field narrows for Saturday’s short go. The average decides the national champion.
Team roping opens Monday morning June 15, with the slack for Round 1, followed by Round 2 Tuesday morning June 16. Round 3 is split across the four nightly performances, Tuesday through Friday at 7 p.m. The short round runs Saturday, June 20, at 7 p.m.
