LAS VEGAS \u2013 Two days ago, before the 60th edition of the Wrangler National Finals Rodeo opened, saddle bronc rider Cort Scheer was sitting in ninth place and ready to make his first Finals appearance since 2015. \u00a0Over the next two days, Scheer has won back-to-back rounds, posted a round record, won $62,462 and climbed all the way to third in the 2018 PRCA | RAM World Standings.<\/p>\n

Scheer won his second consecutive round Friday, Dec. 7, taking Round 2 with a 92-point ride on Hi Lo ProRodeo\u2019s Larry Culpepper in front of 16,893 fans at the Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas. Scheer\u2019s 92-point ride broke the previous Round 2 record of 90 points, set by Dan Mortensen in 2003.
\n“Oh, man, it was all horse again tonight, and that horse was half of it or more,\u201d Scheer said. \u201cMy spur-out was good tonight, and I wanted to work on that, and I was having a lot of fun.\u201d
\nScheer won Round 1 with an 86.5-point ride on Calgary Stampede\u2019s Y U R Frisky.
\nNo surprise, Scheer is rather enjoying all this winning.
\n\u201cIt\u2019s the goal,\u201d said Scheer, of Elsmere, Neb. \u201cYou want to win every round and keep building off it, and then take that momentum and just have fun tomorrow.\u201d
\nScheer had not been aboard Larry Culpepper before Friday. But he did a little research.
\n\u201cI heard Bradley Harter got him in Albuquerque, and he could have been 90 on him,\u201d Scheer said. \u201cJake Wright showed me a video, and I knew I had to stay under my rein.\u201d
\nScheer\u2019s earnings in 2018 have grown to $164,304. He\u2019s about $31,000 behind defending world champion Ryder Wright, who climbed into the lead Friday.
\nScheer is hoping to just keep chipping away at those in front of him.
\n\u201cIt\u2019s just building off it,\u201d he said. \u201cI\u2019m drawing good and the chips are falling for me, so I\u2019m praising God for it, and I know he has a lot more blessings left in him.\u201d<\/p>\n

Hooper notches first Finals go-round win since 2008
\nTilden Hooper hadn\u2019t been to the Wrangler NFR since 2014. And the last time the bareback rider won a round it was during the 10th round in 2008. So that victory didn\u2019t catch as much attention while the world champions were honored that night.
\nHooper enjoyed his victory Friday night after posting an 87.5-point ride on Rafter G Rodeo\u2019s Ankle Biter.
\n\u201cObviously, any time you get a round win out here it\u2019s exciting,\u201d said Hooper, of Carthage, Texas. \u201cBut just to be back out here after four years is awesome. I\u2019ve had some injuries. I\u2019ve been extremely blessed to have a great family and wife and a whole team of guys behind me that keep me healthy and get me back to this point.\u201d
\nHooper\u2019s win helped him climb to eighth place in the 2018 PRCA | RAM World Standings with $131,423.
\nThough Hooper missed out on qualifying for the previous three Wrangler NFRs, he never lost doubt he\u2019d be back.
\n\u201cIt doesn\u2019t feel like it\u2019s been four years since I\u2019ve been here,\u201d he said. \u201cThe process of getting back here and the day-to-day process of me staying healthy, I get so involved with that. It\u2019s kind of like this is the fruit of that labor. I enjoy the labor, so time flies when you\u2019re having fun.\u201d
\nThe last time Hooper was on Ankle Biter was also 2008. So, he knew he had a great draw.
\n\u201cI got on that horse about 10 years ago when they first bought him,\u201d the 30-year-old laughed. \u201cI knew that horse was going to get way in the air and be showy and be a little bit more fun to ride than some of those other horses. If I could get him picked up and get in time with him, he\u2019d give me a chance to show off. I felt like that\u2019s what I did, and, man, that was fun.\u201d<\/p>\n

Frost clears 90 points on re-ride to win bull riding
\nJoe Frost had just gotten off his first bull, when he was already getting ready to get on the next.
\nFrost, who was granted a re-ride, rode Powder River Rodeo\u2019s Misfire for 90 points and the win in Round 2 Friday.
\nFrost barely had time to consider what was going on. And he was just fine with that.
\n\u201cWhen things happen that fast, there were only five guys left to ride, and they were running the bull in by the time I got the sweat off my forehead,\u201d said Frost, 26. \u201cThere was no time to think, so it was all reactions, and I like it that way. I stayed warm through the second bull.\u201d
\nThe news got even better for Frost. Because of ground money, Frost won $33,564 because he was one of only three riders to make the whistle.
\n\u201cShoot, that\u2019s what it all boils down to, and it\u2019s why we are here, to make a living,\u201d he said. \u201cThe better you ride, the better living you make.\u201d
\nFrost posted an 87-point ride in the opening round. He\u2019s one of only two bull riders to cover both of their bulls through the early stages of the 10-day rodeo. He\u2019s earned $59,218 in two days and climbed to third in the world standings with $155,381.
\nHe kept his approach the same from Thursday to Friday.
\n\u201cI\u2019ve had the same routine since I was a junior in high school,\u201d he said. \u201cThere are so many variables in bull riding, and for me I like to keep my routine throughout my day \u2013 eat right, have a clear mind and positive attitude in all those things throughout the day. If you have a positive mindset, it makes it easier.\u201d<\/p>\n

Defending champ Pearson wins first Finals go-round
\nSteer wrestler Tyler Pearson didn\u2019t need to win a round at the 2017 Wrangler NFR to capture the world title last year.
\nIf Pearson goes on to win the 2018 world title that won\u2019t be the same scenario.
\nAfter Friday night, the Louisville, Miss., bulldogger has his first go-round victory at the Finals.
\nPearson won in 3.8 seconds to cash in for $26,231 and up his season earnings to $133,856, grabbing the season lead from Curtis Cassidy, who entered the Finals as the regular-season leader.
\nWinning the world last year has Pearson more relaxed this season.
\n\u201cIt took the pressure off me just because that was my lifelong dream to win a gold buckle,\u201d said Pearson, 33. \u201cI got that, and now I can just back in there and go have fun. Hopefully, I can get another one, that would be great, but I just want to have a good time in the process.\u201d
\nPearson won while riding Scooter, the PRCA | AQHA Horse of the Year for steer wrestling in 2017 and 2018. Scooter led Tyler Waguespack to the Round 1 victory.
\n\u201cHe (Scooter) is just easy,\u201d Pearson said. \u201cHe has a flat leave, and he gets off the corner really hard and hauls butt all the way through there. He gives you a chance to get your feet on the ground for first every time. He\u2019s the reason for my success, I owe it all to him.\u201d
\nPearson already had crossed off a world title from his to-do list. Now he can cross off a go-round win.
\n\u201cIt wasn\u2019t my prettiest run, but feels great because it is my first (career) win,\u201d he said. \u201cIt\u2019s nice to check that off my list and I\u2019ll take it (the $26,231, first-place check) for sure.\u201d<\/p>\n

Lockhart\u2019s decision to stick with Rosa pays off
\nA night after wavering on whether to stick with riding Rosa or switching to Louie, barrel racer Lisa Lockhart\u2019s decision to stay aboard Rosa paid off in spades.
\nLockhart and Rosa teamed up to post a Round 2-winning time of 13.65 seconds.
\n\u201cIt (winning rounds) never gets old,\u201d Lockhart said. \u201cAnd then when you throw in a change (of horses) like this. Because, you know, Louie has made 80 runs in this building, so it was a very hard change for me and a very tough decision to make to even allow Rosa the opportunity. But, she has been an integral part of my team this year. So, I definitely figured she deserved a chance.\u201d
\nThat decision was made harder when the duo tipped a barrel in Round 1. But instead of switching to the veteran Louie, Lockhart stuck by Rosa.
\n\u201cThis is pretty special tonight, definitely,\u201d Lockhart said. \u201cI know she is far from consistent like Louie, so there are going to be the highs and the lows. I hope there are more highs than lows. You just know in the back of your mind when they\u2019re not the seasoned veterans \u2013 and there are just those types of horse, too \u2013 that are just not as consistent, but I know what her abilities are to win first. That\u2019s why we are doing what we\u2019re doing.\u201d
\nLockhart is in second place in the 2018 world standings with $159,746. Hailey Kinsel continues to lead with $229,065.<\/p>\n

Yates cashes in on aggressive run
\nTie-down roper Marty Yates likes to go fast. He made it work in Round 2.
\nYates posted a 7.6-second run aboard Buster to win the round, putting him in fifth place in the 2018 PRCA | RAM World Standings with $136,040.
\n\u201cI went at it tonight just like I do every time,\u201d said Yates, of Stephenville, Texas. \u201cI\u2019m kind of known as the gunslinger, and I\u2019m going to keep going at them. I\u2019ve won money in the first two rounds, and I came out to win as much money as I could each night and to win the average. Those are my main goals right now and I\u2019m going to stick to those goals.\u201d
\nAfter two rounds, Yates has pulled down nearly $50,000 in Wrangler NFR money. He\u2019s planning to keep going at it the same way.
\n\u201cAny time you start a rodeo off like this it is awesome,\u201d Yates said. \u201cIt is what you set out to do when you left home. I felt like I could\u2019ve won a little more (in Round 1), but I\u2019m not going to be greedy. I\u2019m just going to keep going at them and try and tie them as fast as I can each night.\u201d
\nThe victory was Yates\u2019 10th round win at the Finals.
\n\u201cIt\u2019s awesome,\u201d he said. \u201cAny time you come out here to Vegas and you win rounds it means you\u2019re winning money and you belong out here with the best guys in the world.\u201d
\nYates is riding Buster for the third time at the Finals and pointed to his horse as a big reason for the win.
\n\u201cHe\u2019s one of those horses you can ride in any setup, from go-rounds here at the National Finals to big, long scores at Cheyenne (Wyo,),\u201d Yates said.<\/p>\n

Smith\/Eaves respond with 4.0-second run
\nA night after watching Kaleb Driggers and Junior Nogueira pull into the lead, team ropers Clay Smith and Paul Eaves answered.
\nSmith and Eaves kept pace with Driggers and Nogueira by posting a 4.0-second run Friday to win Round 2 of the Wrangler NFR.
\nThe victory pulled Smith within $3,838 of Driggers in the team roping heading and Eaves within $4,822 of Nogueira in team roping heeling.
\nBut with only two rounds down and eight to go, the race for the team roping buckles is far from over.
\n\u201cIt\u2019s a long week still, far from being over, but it\u2019s sure nice,\u201d Eaves said.
\nSmith is hoping they can do it again.
\n\u201cWe\u2019re going to keep going at them and see what happens,\u201d Smith said, \u201cthat\u2019s all we can do, keep making the best round we can make.\u201d
\nAfter recording a no time in the first round, Round 2 was a bit of redemption for Smith and Eaves.
\n\u201cI missed the first round, so it sure helped to get some money the second round,\u201d Smith said.
\nThat money made a big difference.
\n\u201cFor me, I\u2019m just in it to win it, it\u2019s good money and good to be here,\u201d Eaves said.
\nAfter two rounds, Smith is up to $151,575 in heading earnings, while Eaves has the same amount in heeling money.<\/p>\n
