Kincade Henry made up for just missing the National Finals Rodeo in 2021 by cinching his spot in 2022.
He enters his first ever NFR sitting No. 15, but it is no secret what the young calf roper can do. Henry was known to be tough competition before he even got his PRCA card. It proved true, and now he is roping with the best on the biggest stage the sport has to offer.
