XTREME BULLS SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS

Frost back on top at San Antonio Xtreme Bulls On a Mission

BY TANNER BARTH S an Antonio has been a friendly stop on the rodeo trail for Josh Frost over the years and the Randlett, Utah bull rider had another memorable trip to the Alamo City on Feb. 22. He claimed his second San Antonio Stock Show & Rodeo Xtreme Bulls championship, with his last win coming in 2018. He wrapped up the title with an 88.5-point ride on Frontier Rodeo’s Jester. He said it’s a match up he’s been looking forward to for quite some time. “If you could hand pick one out of the draw that’s the one I would’ve picked that’s for sure,” said Frost, 26. “I had never had the opportunity to get on the bull, but I’ve seen him a lot. I was super blessed to finally get the opportunity to draw him, and it went the way I had envisioned it.” Even though Frost didn’t qualify for the semifinals at the San Antonio Stock Show and Rodeo, he still walked out of the

Alamo City with $11,000 thanks to his Xtreme Bulls win. The money only further helps his cause as the No.1 man in the PRCA | RAMWorld Standings. “It’s been a good year so far, but we have a long season left,” Frost said. “So, I’ve got to keep my head down and stay focused. Everybody sees the success from the end of last year, but it’s been 26 years of hard work. I try to get better every time I nod my head.” To punch his ticket to the short round of the Xtreme Bulls Frost had to get over a hurdle that sent him to the dirt just a few nights before. He went head-to-head with Stockyards ProRodeo’s Party Animal, a bull that bucked him off before the eight second mark during the rodeo. “The bull that bucked me off during the regular rodeo and ended up being my long round draw here tonight,” he said. “I rode him seven seconds at the rodeo, so I was pretty excited to get a rematch. I topped him off for 87 points and came back to another good spot in the short round.” And he doesn’t plan to slow down anytime soon with his sights set on not only a PRCAWorld Championship, but another run at the prestigious Linderman award. An honor he has won two times in his career. “I’ve always said if they have a rodeo, I’m going to be entering it,” he said. “You just really have to stay confident and focused on taking it one bull at a time because like I said it’s a long season. I’m going to try to keep rolling and keep the momentum from this win and take it on to the next one.”
