The 71st Annual California Team Roping Association Oakdale Ten Steer ran September 4 through 6, 2026, and paid $55,940 across four pots. Four hundred and eleven entries came through the gate between the team ropings and the breakaway.

Phil Stadtler Memorial #7

The Phil Stadtler Memorial #7 carried the weight of it. Two hundred and two teams entered at $125 a man and the pot paid $33,360. Billy Butler and Sutton Lockett won the average with a 34.66 on four steers for $3,260 apiece, and they had already placed second in the first round together at 7.50. Les Oswald and Gage Santucci were second at 35.53. Josie Jacobs and Ty Jacobs were third at 35.61, and the whole top four finished inside a second of each other.

Lane Wheeler heeled his way into fourth and fifth in that same average behind two different headers, Logan Erickson and then Gage Santucci, which is a hard day’s work. Taylor Bennett won both rounds of the Phil Stadtler with two different heelers, taking the first with Eli Green at 7.39 and the second with Sid Harvey at 7.12.

 

Leo Camarillo Open

The Leo Camarillo Open drew 26 teams at $150 a man for $7,100. Talon Petska and Levi Segura won it with a 33.18 on four for $1,740 each. Segura also heeled the second place team behind Bert McGill at 34.34, which meant he had both of the only two teams to make the money in that pot. Les Oswald and Layton Oswald took the first round at 8.20, and Tyler Quiring and Adolfo DeLaTorre won the fourth at 7.99.

Mixed Jr/Sr #7 Handicap

The Mixed Jr/Sr #7 Handicap on Friday drew 116 teams at $60 a man and paid $8,960. Quinn Tannehill and Rhett Wells won the average with a 22.93 on three for $1,340 each. George Dellis and Chase Dugo were second at 25.92, and Dugo turned around and won the first round with Wyatt Hammerstrom at 5.96.

Breakaway

Saturday belonged to Whitlee Burgess. She won the breakaway average with a 9.40 on three head for $1,500 out of a pot that drew 67 runs and paid $6,520. Sadie Grant was second at 11.70 and Leighton Musick third at 13.23. Braydee Bourdet took both fourth and fifth. Ricki Thiel and Madison Deardorf split the first round at an even 3.00 apiece, Kashlyn Martinez won the second at 3.09 with Burgess right behind her at 3.18, and Liz Hirdes took the third at 3.04.
