Nenzel, Nebraska native Tucker Ravenscroft snagged his first official ProRodeo win at the Inter-State Rodeo. The rodeo took place August 15-16 in Coffeyville, Kansas.

A 4.2 second run in a muddy slack propelled Ravenscroft to the top of the leaderboard where he remained until the rodeo’s end. Ravenscroft left the Inter-State Rodeo $1,513 richer and is currently sitting 14th in the steer wrestling’s Resistol Rookie of the Year Race.

“I drew a good steer and rode Dru Melvin’s horse,” said Ravenscroft. “Colton Swearingen hazed for me and I did the best I could.”

Ravenscroft’s next rodeo appearance will be Friday, August 16 at the Oregon Trail Rodeo in Hastings. As he looks ahead to the 2025 season, he hopes to apply the things he has learned in his rookie year.

“I want to be more in shape and stronger mentally to be able to control what I can control,” said Ravenscroft.
