She posted a 14.47 for third place in the third go and 14.63 in the fourth go. "It's the first time a woman from Utah in the history of pro rodeo has qualified for the National Finals Rodeo. It was really exciting. One gal, Janet Powell won over $40,000 in the barrel racing at the National Finals Rodeo," said Fausett. "The ground was good, but it would get a little slick for the last few runners. I had good runs in the third and fourth go-rounds. My horse is better outside than inside, but did a good job for as much time it had indoors. "The arena in Las Vegas was real small and there was less room. The best time was a 14.27. My best time on a regulation pattern is 17.15. James won the world title and Powell the NFR barrel racing average." Professional Rodeo Cowboy Association season came to an end with the National Finals Rodeo in December, but the 1986 season will kick off with rodeos in January. Fausett competed in rodeos all over the United States during the 1985 season. She hit rodeos in Washington, Montana, Texas, Utah, Arkansas, Wyoming, Idaho, Alabama, Loui-sianna Loui-sianna and many other places. "I won first at Houston and picked up $3,550 with a time of 17.29. One week I entered rodeos in Ellenesberg, Walla Walla, Wash.; Douglas, Wyo.; Tremonton, Utah; Kennewick, Wash, and Filer, Idaho and won them all," said Fausett. Ft. Duchesne cowgirl Fausett competed com-peted in the NFR's barrel racing, but Utah cowboy, Lewis Feild, Elk Ridge, won the world all-around title with an outstanding NFR performance. perfor-mance. Feild has relatives living in Vernal. Not since 1973, when Larry Mahan dominated world rodeo standings, had a riding event specialist won the coveted all-around championship. Feild changed that at the 27th National Na-tional Finals Rodeo in Las Vegas. The fifth-year veteran captured the prestigious title during the 10th and final go-round of the $1.79 million NFR at the sold-out Thomas & Mack Center. The rodeo was the richest in the history of the sport. According to the 29-year-old Feild, "It's nice to bring the world all- around back to the rough stock end.

To be eligible for the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association all-around all-around championship, a cowboy must earn at least $3,000 in each of two events.

Feild finished the year with total earnings of $130,346, which gave him a $3,598 edge over timed event cowboy Clay O'Brien Cooper, who led all-around standings heading into the finals. Despite the upset in the all-around standings, Cooper still walked away with a world championship. The Chandler Heights, Ariz., cowboy, along with team roping partner Jake Barnes of Bloomfield, N.M., set a PRCA single-season earnings record of $99,047. The duo, who had the world championship clinched after the seventh round of NFR competition, competi-tion, won the average (total score or time for all ten go-rounds) with an accumulated time of 87.8 seconds. Cooper remarked, "Winning the team roping championship was my first priority. . . It was a goal I'd been working toward since I was eight years old." Other world champions crowned Sunday were saddle bronc rider Brad Gjermundson of Marshall, N.D.; bull rider Ted Nuce of Manteca, Calif., calf roper Joe Beaver of Victoria, Texas; steer wrestler Ote Berry of Gordon, Neb.; and barrel racer, James.

The victory helped Nuce overtake Tuff Hedeman of El Paso, Texas, and claim his first world championship. In addition, Nuce won $52,924 at the NFR, an all-time record for most money won at a single rodeo. Nuce's 1985 bull riding total earnings of $107,871 was also a record.
