Brazile, who was the All-Around Cowboy winner at last year's Round-Up, notched no-scores in tiedown roping and team roping events on the final day this year. In the ever thrilling bull riding event, a 90 score earned Saturday by Cody Campbell, 25, of Summerville, Ore., was too much to overcome in the event's final day. He rode Glory Days from Growney Brothers Rodeo and earned $6,783 for the run. Behind him was Chandler Bownds from Lubbock, Tex., at second with a score of 88 and third was a tie between Kaycee Rose of Clovis and Travis Atkinson of Lehi, Utah. Both scored an 87. Campbell, according to a release from the Round-Up, has been riding professionally since he was 18. He's primarily rode for Professional Bull Riders, but said he'd wanted to return to Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association competition in the prime of his career to reach the National Finals Rodeo in Las Vegas. "These rodeos, like Red Bluff, this is where it all came from," he said in the release, "and I just love going to these rodeos. This is where our sport all came from. Where it all started." The bull riding competition saw a familiar face in the arena as Red Bluff bullfighter Eric Layton again made sure the bucking bull riders gained safe passage from their bulls. Layton was joined by Dusty Tuckness of Apache, Okla. In bareback riding J.R. Vezain turned in an 88-point effort that knocked off Morgan Heaton's Friday score of 83 to win the event. Heaton, of Paradise, Utah, did hold on to second place and was followed by Orin John Larsen and Winn Ratliff at third. Both scored an 82 on Friday and Saturday, respectively. Vezain earned $6,783. Coming into Sunday's fourth goround of the tie-down roping event, Tuf Cooper, of Decatur, Tex., held the best score of 25.8 seconds after Daily News photo by Andre Byik J.R. Vezain holds on for a winning score of 88 in bareback riding on Sunday during the 92nd Red Bluff Round-Up rodeo at the Tehama District Fairground Frank Moore Arena. Vezain, of Cowley, Wyo., earned $6,783 for the championship run. three runs, which meant he was last to perform. Ryle Smith, of Oakdale was the All-Around champion this year and was part of the Top 4 in the event before Cooper turned in a 10.7 second score to make a 35.5 second aggregate on four runs to capture a championship and $6,657.65 in total earnings on the weekend. In saddle bronc, Cort Sheer of Elsmere, Neb., posted a score of 85 on Last Call from Flying U Rodeo to overcome Jacobs Crawley's score of 83. Sheer was a defending co-champion at the Round-Up and, in the words of a rodeo announcer Sunday, didn't want to split a title this year. Sheer walked away with $6,070.50. Crawley's score was good for second place and in third was Jesse Wright of Milford, Utah, who notched an 82 and came in as this year's money leader in the event. Stan Branco, of Cowchilla won the steer wrestling event with a fourrun aggregate of 21 seconds. His earnings for the weekend totaled $5,164.99. Chance Gartner followed in second with a total time of 21.8 seconds and in third was Wyatt Smith with 23.9 seconds. In team roping, where a header and heeler work together to rope a steer, the winners again came at the at the end as the Calvin Brevik and Travis Woodard led the field with a three-run score of 17.3 seconds and notched a 6.6-second time in their final run to post a winning 23.9 second total. They edged out the team of Clay Tryan and Jade Corkill (24.2) by 0.3 seconds and both came away with $6,054.89 apiece. Placing third was Drew Horner and Buddy Hawkins II with a fourrun score of 26.8 seconds. In barrel racing, Trula Churchill of Valentine, Neb., posted a two-run aggregate of 34.89 seconds to capture the event in dramatic fashion — yes, as the final competitor in the event Sunday.
