The Agricultural and Environmental Sciences Club held its 69th intramural rodeo in the Taylor Telecom arena on Thursday night. Students competed in different rodeo events such as steer riding, sheep scramble and barrel racing. Faculty also returned to the arena by competing in one event, where each participant had to put a t-shirt on a goat while under a time limit.
The overall results are below, but after some contention, a review will take place on Monday.
Men’s Division: Fratar Sodalis, Sub T-16, Trojans
Women’s division: Smoke and Aces (AES Team), Ko Jo Kai, Tri Kappa Gamma
