MARTIN, Tenn. – The University of West Alabama wranglers competed in the 40th University of Tennessee at Martin spring college rodeo this weekend at the Ned Ray McWherter Agricultural Complex with the men finishing sixth.

Daniel Poole led the way for the men, winning the bull riding competition with 170 points. On the women’s side, Jessica Robinson gathered 45 points in the barrel racing.

“Daniel had an exceptional weekend in the bull riding and has matured in his riding 100-percent in the last month,” UWA head coach Chad Phipps said. “He has a great shot of jumping up in the standings and making the finals. Jessica also had a nice weekend on the women’s side.”

 The UWA wranglers return to action on Thursday, April 17, as they take part in the three-day Northwest Mississippi Community College rodeo at the Multipurpose Livestock Arena. The event concludes on Saturday, April 19.
