CCC's Schicke and Reeves Move Up in Central Plains Region Rodeo Rankings

Coffeyville Community College Rodeo Team competed at the Central Plains Regional Rodeo at Fort Scott Community College, on March 4-6.  

Team ropers, C.J. Schicke, from Independence, Kan., and Lane Reeves, from Wann, Okla., placed second in the long round with a time of 5.9 seconds.  They posted the fastest time of the rodeo in the short round with a blistering 5.3 seconds.  Their time of 11.2 on two head won the average title by almost two seconds.  

This is C.J. and Lane's second win of the rodeo season. They also won the Woodward, Okla. college rodeo last fall.  The win moves them both to first place in the heading and heeling standings of the region. 

“There is still more work to do at the remaining four rodeos,” said Johnny Weil, CCC Head Rodeo Coach. “But this puts them in an excellent position for them to qualify for the College National Finals Rodeo in Casper, Wyoming.”

The CCC Men's Team finished third at Ft. Scott behind Oklahoma Panhandle State University and Southwestern Oklahoma State University.  

They are currently seventh in the Central Plains Men's Team standings, which is the highest ranked school from Kansas.
