A pair of future Hall of Famers returned to competition over the last week. Both Stetson Wright and Tim O’Connell are back in the arena after extended layoffs.
Wright is returning from a torn hamstring that kept him out for over a full year. In his return, he won the American West Regional Qualifier.
O’Connell is returning from a torn groin that kept him out for an extended period. In his return, he was 81 points at the Cinch World’s Toughest Rodeo.
Both will hit the rodeo trail hard this season to qualify for the 2025 NFR.
