A Marshall resident and Missouri Valley College graduate now owns a share of a world record.
According to PRORODEO.ocom, three-time Bareback World Champion Tim O’Connell scored a 94 on Northcott Macza’s Stevie Nicks to win the San Angelo Cinch Chute-Out Rodeo on Saturday.
O’Connell, who won world titles in 2016, ’17 and ’18, now shares the world record with Wes Stevenson (2002); Will Lowe (2003); Ryan Gray (2009); and Tilden Hooper (2010).
O’Connell, who had never been on Stevie Nicks, earned $7,500 for the victory.
This year, O’Connell entered the weekend in third place in the PRCA | RAM World Standings with $23,545, a little more than $1,000 out of first place.
