Circuit rodeo finals decide season-long points races

E.J. Panetta, Joe Panetta, Taylor Sweet, Della Eppler, JT Collingwood and Keon Norris clinched wins in their respective season-long points races at the Big Horn Rodeo Circuit finals held Saturday afternoon at the fairgrounds in Basin.
E.J. Panetta won the calf roping, finishing in 13.26 seconds.  Ty Wilcox was second, with a 26.52.
Joe Panetta wrapped up the junior breakaway competition, claiming the win with a 3.68.  Teagan Wilcox, with a 4.20, and Lane Collingwood, with an 18.14, rounded out the top three.
Less than a second separated the top two junior barrel racers.  Sweet won it — and clinched the season-long — with an 18.87.  Talann Perry was second with a 19.763.
The women’s barrel racing competition also ended in dramatic fashion, with Eppler claiming the win with a 17.609 and Tammy Pollan ranking second with an 18.6.
J.T. Collingwood teamed up with his father Scott to win the mixed team roping, finishing in 8.73 seconds.  Cherian Richmond and Casey Good were second with a 9.16.  The season-long titles, however, went to J.T. Collingwood and Richmond.
Norris, meanwhile, won the finals and the season-long in bareback. He was the only rider to post a score, registering a 65.
In other results from the circuit finals:
• Jackie Haaland won the women’s breakaway in 4.74, just ahead of Vicki McCarty with a 6.68.  The season-long winner was Lacee Good.
• Wyatt Blank won the steer riding with a 71, just ahead of Lincoln Shepperson, whose 67 was still sufficient to give him the season-long title.
• Adam Cheney won the junior bull riding.
• In team roping, the season-long winners were Casey Good and Clark Hufty, but neither man was a factor in the finals.  First went to Matt Paumer and Pablo Good with an 8.89, second to Lacee and Pablo Good with a 9.24 and third to Trent Metro and Tucker McKim with a 12.4.
