MOSES LAKE — The 80th year of the Moses Lake Roundup was celebrated Thursday through Friday, when competitors from around the world traveled to Moses Lake for a chance to take home thousands of dollars in the rodeo.

“It’s a good rodeo, good contractors,” saddle bronc rider Jake Clark said. “Great hospitality — they treat the competitors great here.”

The stands in the Rodeo Arena were packed each of the three nights of the Roundup, watching the numerous competitors take part in bareback riding, steer wrestling, team roping, saddle bronc riding, breakaway roping, tie-down roping, barrel racing and bull riding.

“This is a great crowd; they all get into it the whole rodeo. It’s not just the bull riding,” bull rider Laramie Mosley said. “It makes it fun when you show up here and see the stands full, everybody cheering and hollering. It makes it enjoyable.”

Mosley took home the title in the bull riding event, marking a score of 88 points Saturday night, riding Corey & Lange Rodeo’s Cold Turkey. The 27-year-old bull rider has been a professional for the past six years, with this being his second trip to Moses Lake.

“It’s a great rodeo and it got a lot of money added,” Mosley said. “We stay out here all summer and hit the big ones.”

A native of Palestine, Texas, Mosley said having a clear mind was key in his championship ride Saturday night.

“Just stay clear-headed and follow their moves,” Mosley said. “If you try and blow it up in your head it gets way too hard, and you’ll fall off anyways.”

There was plenty of local talent in the rodeo, featuring Soap Lake steer wrestler and bull rider Caleb McMillan, Moses Lake steer wrestler Jacob Stacy, Moses Lake tie-down roper Kass Newman and a team roping duo of Jared Cox and Ryan Stewart, the former from Warden and the latter from Royal City.

The fans in the stands cheered on the competitors regardless of where they were from, with some traveling from Australia, Brazil and Canada.

“It’s always a good show,” Clark said. “Always full stands. Everybody’s into it, it’s a fun rodeo.”

“I love it, there’s no other feeling like it in the world,” Mosley said. “You get off and hear everybody screaming, it makes you feel like you’re somebody.”

Champions in the rodeo were as follows: Clayton Biglow won the bareback riding with a score of 86.5 points; Gus McGinn won steer wrestling with a time of 3.9 seconds; the team roping duo of Derrick Begay and Colter Todd won with a time of 4.2 seconds; Kade Bruno won the saddle bronc with a score of 90 points; Zack Jongbloed and Kyle Lucas tied for first in tie-down roping with a time of 8.1 seconds; Carlee Otero won barrel racing with a time of 16.89 seconds; Mosley’s score of 88 won the bull riding event.
