The last rodeo of the fall season helped many team members increase their points for state. This event took place at the arena in Cedar City and was sponsored by the Enterprise Team on Friday and then the Cedar Rodeo club on Saturday. High school rodeo members will now take a break to practice and sharpen their skills to begin again at the Dixie-6 in November, which is the winter series in Hurricane.

Team roping competition found Korby Christiansen and partner placing fourth, Will and Wyatt Magnuson taking sixth and Hayden Cloward and partner finishing in seventh. Jessie McElprang and Shaylee Gilbert picked up more points in breakaway with McElprang in third and Gilbert in fifth. In tie down roping, Will Magnuson placed second and Cloward placed seventh. Riata Christiansen, Korby Christiansen and Drake Weber placed third, sixth and 10th, respectively, in reining cow horse. Sierra Edwards from the Carbon team took eighth in poles.

In the shooting sports, Kolton Rhodes tied for first on Friday and snatched first on Saturday. Younger brother Kagen was second and fifth in light rifle. In the trap shoot on Friday, Kagen tied for first at the Enterprise rodeo and Kolton also tied for first at the Cedar shoot. He then tied for second on Friday.
