Fast Back cowboys dominated the team roping with Tom Richards, Humbolt, AZ, winning first with an 18.3 on three head; Jonathan Torres, Anthony, FL winning second; and Parker Reed, Congress, AZ winning third.

NHSFR - Farmington, New Mexico was the site of the National High School Finals Rodeo held July 20-26 where Fast Back team members appeared three times in the team roping top twenty.
