The American Rodeo presented by Teton Ridge is just a few short months away and it is now time for the culmination of each region.

In order to qualify for a regional semi-finals, contestants have already competed at their local level to earn a spot. Now all of the contestants that advanced in the West Region will meet in Las Vegas, Nevada at the South Point Hotel and Casino to narrow the field to just five in each event.

Friday, the events will continue with round two beginning again at 8 a.m. The Redemption Rounds will follow round two in the order of breakaway, tie-down, steer wrestling, team roping and then barrel race. The roughstock preliminary round will be held at 8 p.m. Friday.
