FOUR - Heppner Gazette-Times, Heppner, Oregon Wednesday, January 6,1999 Local cowboys qualify Football season is almost over and its coming down to the wire! Who will be the contest champion “Mr. Q c a l l v S u p e r S t u p e n d o u s Biahead”? Numerous local cowboys and cowgirls have qualified for the Columbia River Circuit Finals at the Sundome arena in Yakima, WA, this weekend, January 8- 10 . Steve Cumn of Heppner is a calf roping qualifier and he and his brother, Tony, also Heppner, both qualified for steer wrestling. Shane Crossley of Hermiston qualified in team- roping (header) as did heelers, Brett McDowell, Heppner, and Trevor McCoin, Condon. Janice Davis and Candice Eng, both Hermiston, and Randy Rae Britt, Echo, will go to the finals in barrel racing. Other area qualifying cowboys include: Richie Hamilton, bareback riding, Gary Alger, saddle bronc riding, Richard Stapleman, bull riding, and Curtis Been, steer wrestling, all Pendleton; and calf ropers Brad Goodrich and Seth Hopper, both Stanfield, Curtis Pederson, Hermiston; and Jeff Coelho, Long Creek. The local competitors are among 45 qualifying from Oregon. The Columbia Finals, with competitors from Oregon, Washington and northern Idaho, is one of 12 regional circuit finals where pro rodeo athletes compete for circuit titles and a trip to the Dodge National Circuit Finals Rodeo held each March in Pocatello, ID. Throughout the year competitors accumulate points at rodeos within their designated circuit and the top 12 contestants at circuit season's end in each of the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association's six events and Women's Professional Rodeo Association barrel racing qualify to compete at the three-round circuit finals event. Each circuit's finals then sends two competitors in each event to the Dodge National Circuit Finals Rodeo—year end circuit champions and winners of the clrcuit finals average titles. In March the contestants will complete with qualifiers from 11 other circuit finals for national titles and more than $440,000 in prize money. Money earned at the Columbia River Prorodeo Circuit Finals and DNCFR does not count toward the Crown Royal world standings.
