He currently sits at fourth overall with a chance to be in the top 12 to advance to the championship finals. Clay Tom Hurt, from Sam Houston State University, is at the top of the bulldogging leaderboard with almost a full 4 second advantage over the competition with his total time of 14.4 seconds on three head.
University of Wyoming junior Josie Mousel stopped the clock in 6.2 seconds to move to second in the third round and the top of the overall standings with18.0 seconds. Mousel is also competing in the breakaway roping. By competing in both events, she is also a contender for the women’s all-around championship.

Perf 3
It was another night of leaderboard changes with Waitley Sharon bumping up to the top of the overall leaderboard by taking first with his 84.5 points on Disco Fever (Muddy Creek Pro Rodeo) for a combined 249 points total on three head. His younger brother, Traven had an 82 point ride on Red Man (Muddy Creek) to take second place in the third round to move up to fourth overall with 235.25 points.

Acey Pinkston of Weatherford College is second in the overall standings with a time of 41.36 seconds on three runs behind Devin Young of Texas A&M University, who has the overall lead with 41.20 seconds.
