Competitor Crossover: Who's Competing In The CFR & Rising Stars?

Looking at the list of young cowboys and cowgirls that are competing in the Rising Stars Junior CFR means looking at the next generation of potential professionals. Some of those competitors are proving that to be true–not sometime in the future–but today. 

Both Grady Quam and Justine Elliott are doing double-duty this week at both the Canadian Finals Rodeo and the Rising Stars Junior CFR. That means the pair will be making two runs in the Centrium in Red Deer, Alberta today, with the Junior CFR this afternoon and the regular CFR rodeo performance this evening.

Elliott was able to pick up a fifth place check in round one with her 14.171-second run, while Quam has yet to pick up a check but has shown exactly why he’s a CFR qualifier by slinging head loops out to be four-seconds each night. Once these two get their feet under them, we have no doubts that they’ll be winning checks at both the Junior CFR and regular Canadian Finals Rodeo.
