SPANISH FORK, Utah – Both CSI rodeo teams rounded out their fall portion of the 2026-2027 season with strong showings at the Utah Valley University Rodeo over the weekend, as the men's team finished in second place while the women finished in fourth place.

Makarty Larsen had a strong showing in saddle bronc riding, where he placed first, good for 120 points. Sean Mahoney and Britt Wells each placed top five in bareback riding, as Mahoney finished second with 135 points and Wells finished fourth with 95 points.
The CSI women's team saved their best for last as they finished with a season-high 170 points, good for fourth place.
They were spearheaded by Bailee Webster, who finished second in women's all-around, tallying all 170 of the team's points. Webster finished third in goat tying, bringing home 110 points, and was able to pick up her last 60 points in team roping, where she finished fifth.
Heading into the break before the spring season resumes, the CSI men still cling to their lead in the Rocky Mountain Region standings with 3,980 points, while the women sit in eighth place with a total of 300 points.
