NTCC Rodeo Winds Down Year

The Northeast Texas Community College Rodeo Team will make the trip down to Athens, May 7 and May 8 to close out the National Intercollegiate Rodeo Association (NIRA) Southern Region season.

Trinity Valley Community College will serve as the host for the event initially scheduled for February when the winter storm hit.

The Eagles last competed in the McNeese State University Rodeo in Lake Charles, Louisiana, on April 30 and May 1. NTCC Bull Rider Sean Garner (Darndanelle, Arkansas) won the Bull Riding event. Sean is having a great year and is one qualified ride from making the College National Finals Rodeo in Casper, Wyoming, June 13-19, 2021.

Peyton Cooper (Ivanhoe, Texas) brought home a third-place finish in the lady’s breakaway-roping to lead the way for the Women’s Rodeo Team. 

The team has worked hard all year, overcoming COVID-19 related cancellations, different safety protocols, and lousy weather to compete in Rodeos across Texas and Louisiana.

NTCC competes in the Southern region of the National Intercollegiate Rodeo Association with Hill College, Louisiana Tech University, Louisiana State University-Alexandria, McNeese State University, Panola Junior College, Sam Houston State University, Southwest Texas Junior College, Stephen F. Austin University, Texas A&M University, Texas A&M University-Commerce, Texas A&M University-Kingsville, Trinity Valley Community College, and Wharton County Junior College.

The Eagles will host a Rodeo in Mid-October, be on the lookout for the exact date, times, and location. For anyone wishing to come on board as a sponsor for the Rodeo, contact Coach Skylar Hunnicutt at shunnicutt@ntcc.edu.
