The Northeast Texas Community College (NTCC) Men’s Rodeo Team is heading to the College National Finals Rodeo (CNFR) in Casper, Wyoming, June 15-21, 2025, after claiming the team title at the final Southern Region College Rodeo of the season, hosted by Hill College in Hillsboro, Texas.
NTCC student-athletes delivered standout performances to secure their place on the national stage:

“This is a huge achievement for our team, and we’re proud to see our athletes represent NTCC on a national level,” said NTCC Rodeo Coach Justin Hampton. “They’ve worked hard all season, and this is a well-earned opportunity.”
