The collegiate rodeo season rolls on throughout the fall. College of Southern Idaho’s Ashton Zabriskie won the bull riding as the women finished fourth and the men earned sixth at the Idaho State University Rodeo this past weekend in Pocatello. Libby Swan left everything she knew about rodeo for 18 months.

This marked CSI’s second rodeo of the season. Zachary Oros, a freshman from Elko, Nevada, won the event at the Southern Utah University Rodeo. Libby Swan won the all-around and breakaway roping titles, Coy Montgomery claimed the bareback riding title and Zachary Oros won the bull riding.
