Team All-American Dodge still hot, wins second go-round

ODESSA, Texas - Dave Jantzi and Toby Inman are riding a hot streak.

The Professional Bullfighters Daisy Protection Bullfight World Championships are a great place to get on a roll, and on Saturday night during the second performance that takes place in conjunction with the SandHills Stock Show and Rodeo, the duo representing Team All-American Dodge pulled through with their second straight win.

Jantzi, of Sugar Creek, Ohio, and Inman, of Davis Junction, Ill., reeled off 79 points on four bulls, edging Team Cavenders, represented by Andy Burelle of Ardmore, Okla., and Dusty Tuckness of Meeteetse, Wyo., who had a 76. Team Daisy, represented by Joe Garretson of Springfield, Mo., and Cory Wall of Burlington, Colo., finished third with a 73.

“It was a good, tight match, which is what we expect at our World Championships,” said Jim McLain, president of the PBF.

The PBF protection-bullfight competition is based on developing a contest among some of the greatest athletes in ProRodeo – the guys that for years have been hired hands to protect fallen bull riders. This provides a competitive edge to these talented athletes.

Team All-American Dodge also took a big step in the overall lead with 167 points in two rounds. Second place is Team Cavenders with 143, followed by Team Daisy, 139; Team Mann Creek Buck-N-Bulls, Jay Brewer of Graham, Texas and Steve Wangler of Plainview, Neb., 134; and Team Buster’s Well Service, Wacey Munsell of Ulysses, Kan., and Lance McIlvain of Arlington, Texas.

But there are four rounds to go, and the third round will take place Wednesday, Jan. 7.
