Dustin Egusquiza and Levi Lord have take 2024 by storm as the world standings leaders with $187,771.70 won on the year. Saturday, Sept. 14, Egusquiza and Lord also added the Pendleton Round-Up to their resumes.
Egusquiza and Lord roped three steers in 17.9 seconds and pocketed $12,223 a piece between the rounds and the average. The win also locked them in as the No. 1 team in the PRCA Playoff Series standings heading into the Governor’s Cup in Sioux Falls at the end of the month, an opportunity they missed by one point in 2023.
On this episode of The Short Score, Egusquiza and Lord talk about the Pendleton Round-Up team roping win, the year they’ve had and more.
