PEEK IS THE WORLD CHAMPION
COLORADO’S JOSH PEEK FINALLY GETS THE GOLD BUCKLE
Adversity doesn’t stop Josh Peek of Pueblo, Colo. It never has. A year ago, Peek was leading the Wrangler Timed Event Championship of the World at the Lazy E Arena with one run left. He took a 60-second time in the steer roping, the equivalent of a no-time at the WTEC, and dropped to a fourth place finish. On Sunday, he was again leading the average with one run remaining. This time, the 30-year-old tied his steer down in 18.4 seconds to clinch the title of 2010 Wrangler Timed Event Champion of the World with 315.2 on 25 runs. He is the 11th man to win the title in the 26 years of the WTEC. In addition to winning $50,000 for the average, Peek, the two-time PRCA Reserve All- Around World Champion, placed twice in the fast rounds and exited the Lazy E Arena this weekend with $58,000. “I was more prepared this year,” he said. “Before I got here, I believed I was going to win.” Again, he’s faced adversity before. When Peek was 9 years old an old nail pierced the skin of his right foot. In a lot of cases, the story might have ended with tetanus shot. But Peek had stepped on this nail while in a pig pen. The child would undergo four surgeries, almost lose his foot and spend about a month in the hospital. In that span he would be given some antibiotics and that’s what he’s told induced epilepsy.
That didn’t stop him. “Without adversity, you’ll never achieve success,” he said Sunday. “There will always be road bumps and you’ll need the Lord and your family, but you also have to believe in yourself.”
The WTEC annually takes 20 of the world’s toughest cowboys to battle the clock and tests their talents in a marathon of team roping - heading and heeling, tie-down roping, steer wrestling and steer roping over five rounds for a share of a $150,000 total purse.
Peek went to the lead in the third round on the 14th run of the weekend. However, on the 19th run a fast running draw led to a 27.5 in the steer wrestling. He would end the fourth go in second place. In the fifth round, Peek dropped to third. The team roping - heeling shuffled the deck as K.C.
Jones of Burlington, Wyo., a four-time WTEC Champion, dropped to third. Trevor Brazile of Decatur, Texas, the six-time WTEC Champion, moved to the lead in the average and Peek went to second after 23 head. In the steer wrestling, Brazile had a tough steer, suffering a 60- second time. So, Peek tossed his draw in 4.1 seconds for 296.8 on 24 and the lead, with one run remaining. Jones was second. In the steer roping, Jones was 18- seconds for 343.0 on 25. Peek needed to be 46.1 for the win and was 18.4.
Jones finished second in the average for $25,000, while Jo Jo Lemond was third at 358.3 seconds for $15,000. Brazile claimed fourth with 364.9 for $10,000 and fifth was Chance Kelton of Mayer, Ariz., 367.6 for $7,500. Kelton also had the fastest round with 48 seconds in the second go for and additional $10,000.
Not long into Sunday’s action, fans witnessed something never before done at the WTEC, as Jo Jo LeMond of Andrews, Texas, along with the assistance of World Champion Randon Adams, shattered the WTEC team roping - heading record with a 4.5-second run. The previous record was a 5.1-second run by B.J. Campbell in 2002. LeMond also holds the WTEC team roping- heeling record with a 4.9-second effort with Matt Sherwood in 2009.
