RAM National Circuit Finals Round 1 Recap and Results
Round 1 of the RAM National Circuit Finals Rodeo (RNCFR) wrapped up Friday night in Kissimmee, Florida. The cowboys are laying it all on the line because the money is more important than ever this year at the RNCFR. As per new PRCA bylaws, all money won at the 12 circuit finals rodeos, All American ProRodeo Finals, and the RNCFR count toward the 2017 WEATHER GUARD® PRCA World Standings.
The amount of money on the line is giving cowboys a chance to really advance their positions in the 2017 WEATHER GUARD® PRCA World Standings.
Friday night was Wrangler National Patriot Night at the Silver Spurs Arena. Before the performance began, 40-plus Marines took their oath of enlistment in the arena in a special ceremony.
The tournament-style RNCFR format determines the National Circuit Champions in each event. All 24 qualifiers from the 12 circuits compete in the two preliminary rounds of the rodeo. The top eight contestants from each event advance to the semifinal, with all previous scores and times thrown out. The top four move on to the final round, a sudden-death competition that determines the national circuit champion in each event.
The second round begins at 1:30 p.m. (ET) Saturday and concludes Saturday night with a 7:30 p.m. (ET) performance. The RNCFR will crown its 2017 National Champions in the final performance at 2:30 p.m. (ET) Sunday.
