Fourth-of-July Team Roping Wrap Up 2016
Driggers and Nogueira remain hot, Brown and Long win big in Cody and more.

Kaleb Driggers and Junior Nogueira might not have picked up checks at all of the biggest Fourth of July rodeos like Cody and Greeley, but they placed at seven rodeos (and won or split four of them) to earn a whopping $22,884 each and jump them both to fifth in the PRCA world standings as of this morning after not being within the top 40 a month ago. 

“I messed up a couple places,” Nogueira said. “I roped a leg at Cody, and I burned my hand bad at Red Lodge so I couldn’t dally at Molalla. But I can tape it and rope, and it will be better in a few days. Kaleb just roped outstanding.”

Driggers and Nogueira bested Luke Brown and Jake Long by just a few hundred dollars in the Cowboy Christmas earnings race. Brown and Long split the win with Driggers and Nogueira at Livingston, won Cody and won second at Greeley to bring their earnings to $22,026 a man for the week. 

Riley and Brady Minor had a great week, too, winning Prescott and placing at four other rodeos for a total of $13,268 a man. That moved Riley to first in the PRCA world standings and put Brady in second. 

(Totals are unofficial and based on my *poor* math skills as we get ready to ship this issue and await the official Fourth-of-July results from ProRodeo.com. Take it easy on me, please…)
