Riley and Brady Minor cinch big paydays at the National Western Stock Show and Rodeo

Brady and Riley Minor AOW

Team roping duo and brothers Riley and Brady Minor made sure to do their job and do it well at the Denver Coliseum. Sweeping their bracket was how they started their trip to the National Western Stock Show and Rodeo and they ended with a pretty trip to the pay window.

Round 1 of Bracket 8 was the final first round of the National Western Stock Show and Rodeo and the Minors delivered stopping the clock at 4.9 seconds landing them in the Winner’s Circle early on. It was followed up in Round 2 with a back-to-back trip to the Winner’s Circle when they won the Go-Round and led the Average in Bracket 8 by over eight and a half seconds.

The Minors made a third trip to the Winner’s Circle when they won the Semifinals with another 4.9-second run to get the Go-Round win by over a second with Luke Brown and Trey Yates’ 6.0 coming in second.

While their efforts fell short of the win, Riley and Brady Minor both racked up enough cash to be your Timed Event Athletes of the Week and showed a level of consistency that promises more success as the Texas Swing kicks off.
