Three Baker students who compete for the Eastern Oregon Rodeo Club have qualified for the National Finals High School Rodeo July 17-23 in Gillette, Wyoming.

Dysan Robb, Clark Norton and Brycen Martin qualified for the national event by placing in the top four at the Oregon High School Rodeo Association state finals rodeo earlier this month in Prineville.

Robb and Norton both qualified in boys cutting.

Robb finished second with 126 points, while Norton was third with 103 points.

Cutting points are largely based on the rider’s quality and efficiency in handling — for example, if the rider has to shout to control a cow, a point is deducted, while points are added if they conduct the cut in the center of the area.

In saddle bronc riding, Martin finished fourth with 103 points.

Baker competitors Colton Clark and Macey Moore competed in team roping but didn’t place in the top ten.
