After qualifying for the Semi-Finals at RodeoHouston, Wacey Schalla kept the momentum going as he claimed it all at the Rio Grande Livestock Show and Rodeo to be you Roughstock Athlete of the Week.

It all started at the Xtreme Bulls when Schalla matched up with Jag Metals Tucke of Stockyards Pro Rodeo. The 86-point ride would be enough for $4,800 before the score Schalla put on the board at the rodeo was 80.5 to cash in there the next day.

Schalla’s draw in the bareback riding was Penthouse Pro Rodeo’s Brazos and after eight seconds, Schalla’s 87.5-points would cinch the win. This trip to the pay window would add $4,400 to his season earnings.

Schalla is your Roughstock Athlete of the Week after doubling down at the Rio Grande and he already added to it when he went 90 in the bull riding at Rodeo Austin to take an early lead.
