A look back at some of the sports happenings during the week of Feb. 4-10:
Last year on Feb. 4, 2023: A trio of South Dakota cowboys won titles at the prestigious Rodeo Rapid City 2023 as part of the 65th annual Black Hills Stock Show. Delbert “Shorty” Garrett of Eagle Butte won the Saddle Bronc; Billy Boldon of Oglala won the steer wrestling; and Chance Schott of McLaughlin won the bull riding. Schott had a dream week as he also won the Xtreme Bulls title at the Black Hills Stock Show as well as making the bull riding finals at the Fort Worth (TX) Stock Show. He earned more than $12,000 in nine days at the two rodeos and made a couple of trips (1,047 miles one-way) back-and-forth from South Dakota to Texas during the competitions that were going on during similar time frames.
