Eight-time world champion Joe Beaver, who hails from Huntsville, ruled at RodeoHouston in the 1990s and 2000s, winning three all-around and one tie-down title.Huntsville High graduate John Douch, who’s roped with Beaver since middle school, claimed the RodeoHouston tie-down roping championship with a time of 7.7 seconds in the $50,000 Shootout round Saturday at NRG Stadium.Douch, who secured $57,250, also won in the 10-man Championship round with a 7.
“It dang sure was a successful trip,” Wright said. “I’m pumped up about it, and super happy, healthy, and ready to go to the next one.”He joins dad Cody Wright and uncle Jesse Wright, who won saddle bronc titles in 2012 and 2019, respectively, as Houston winners. Even sweeter, in a family full of champs, he found a way to distinguish himself.
“They won it in the saddle bronc riding, and I won it in bull riding, so I did something nobody in my family’s ever done before,” he said. “But I’ll dang sure be back next year trying to win it in bronc riding, so I can put my name by theirs.”The Montana cowboy posted an 87 in the Championship round, but his horse stumbled out of the chute, so he was given the option for a re-ride, and fortunately for him, he took it.
“Breakaway ropers have been roping our whole lives, not even dreaming that we would have a chance to rope at a rodeo this prestigious, and compete for this kind of money,” she said. “It’s truly unbelievable.”
