OAKDALE, CALIF. – The 62nd Annual Oakdale 10 Steer Roping, produced and sponsored by the CTRA (California Team Roping Association) in the Cowboy Capital of the World was another great success. Again this year, CTRA used the ACTRA numbering system and the 10 Steer was divided into two divisions, a #5.5 that was won by Tanner Patino and Blaize Twisselman and an #8.5, won by Layton Oswald and Todd Hampton.
Other ropings held during the four-day event, which was held Aug. 31-Sept. 3, included the Open Roping that was won by Craig Harrison and James Ferreira. Century Roping winners were Darrick Hoskins and Gary Ford. Rick Corum and Will Cowden won the Phil Stadtler Memorial Roping. The Joanie Gatz Memorial All Girl Roping champs were Danielle Craig and Rikki Perezchica. Saddles were awarded to the average winners of all events excluding the Open and Century Ropings.
