Riley Webb did what he does best in Round 1 of San Angelo. He stopped the clock at 6.9 seconds to be the fastest run we’ve seen out of the first four performances and it holds the lead. It was not only the fastest of San Angelo so far, but the fastest of the entire Texas Swing.
“That was great. I couldn’t hear anything, that’s the first perf I’ve rode the paint in, so I was trying to get back on and get the six seconds, but I was pumped. The crowd is always loud here and a fan of calf roping so that’s exciting,” Webb said.
