The future of rodeo is looking bright with the 2021 class of Resistol Rookies of the Year.
Rookies in each event spend the entirety of the calendar year fighting for the #1 spot, but only a few take home the honors. The Rookie of the Year title is awarded in each of the standard events of rodeo, and goes to the competitor who has earned the most money throughout the year.
Beau Cooper, the 2021 Calf Roping Rookie of the year, and Slade Wood, the 2021 Steer Roping and All-Around Rookie of the Year, join Rebel Sjeklocha in dual episodes of Breaking the Barrier.
Both rodeo athletes share their stories, goals, and outlook headed into 2022.
Hear from both Beau Cooper and Slade Wood on this week’s two-part episode of Breaking the Barrier, hosted by Rebel Sjeklocha.
