It is the rodeo “Where the Cowboys Are the Stars,” and the star power saw newcomers and seasoned veterans having success in the D&B Arena. When the chute gate opened and Outlaw Buckers’ bareback horse exploded, it was all Trevar McCallister could do to hang on for eight seconds. The 27-year-old from Ronan, Montana, matched the horse move for move and it paid off with an 86-point ride. That probably will not remain in first place for the next three nights, but it does have a chance to see him back for Saturday night’s championships.
