Mulvane

I've gotta get out to Dodge City, gotta get up to Salina, gotta get back to ...

I wanna go to Wichita, Derby, and Mulvane 'cause that's where I lived.

There was a whole, like-

Yeah

Uh, the California Circuit Finals selected him to be the voice of their Circuit Finals.

And I get to work with him in Mulvane, Kansas at the National Final Steer Open.

Uh, it's Cory's second trip back, and we get to work alongside our friend Cor- or Cory Keith, uh, teammate at the Cowboy Channel, Mr. Steve Kenyon.

Right.

Yeah, and it, and it's a cool building too.

It's at, it's at the, in Mulvane, Kansas at the, at the casino there.

Mm-hmm.

... we can get some shows out there.

It's either Mulvane or Winfield.

I think it's Winfield.

Yeah.

Um-

That probably- that makes more sense than Mulvane.

[laughs]

I don't know.

Joined by steer roper Tony Reina, and, uh, we've got a chance to visit.

I'm gonna try to visit with all of the qualifiers for the National Final Steer Roping, uh, the National Finals coming up next month, uh, at the KansasStar Arena in Mulvane, Kansas.

Tony, welcome.

Thank you for your time, I appreciate it.

Thank you.

Tony, I'm looking forward to telling your story.

November 13th and 14th, uh, Kansas Star Arena, Mulvane, Kansas, the National Final Steer Roping.

Two days, five performances per day.

Uh, upon graduating from PSU, went to Miller, Missouri for a couple of years.

Mulvane, he was at Mulvane in 1975 as an assistant, and then the next two years he was at Peabody Burns High School.

And then a couple of years at K-State as a wide receivers coach, and then he was at Southwestern College, and then he started to branch out a little bit.

Spent a couple of years as the o- offensive coordinator at Tennessee Tech, and then there was a brief but very, very successful run at Pittsburg State, and that really put him on the coaching map and made him, well, a household name in southeast Kansas, no doubt about that.

That's our high school female athlete of the week.

We transition to the high school male athlete of the week, Hayes Ensley from Mulvane.

He is a running back and defensive back.

He was pretty good last week at Wamego.

A huge game with the Mulvane squad and the Wamego Red Raiders.

230 yards on the ground, four touchdowns in total, and to cap it all off, a game-winning INT in a 41-40 win at Wamego, AKA Boomtown is what they call it.

Here is Jackson Schneider with our high school male athlete of the week, Hayes Ensley from Mulvane.

Jackson Schneider here at Mulvane High School today for our male high school athlete of the week.

Guy works super hard at it and glad that he got the call.

And I actually got the call for the National Final Steer Rope, and I'm the music director there in Mulvane.

The second weekend in November, got to go in 2021 and get to make my second appearance.

So I was pretty stoked when I got the call from Josh Edwards, the contract personnel director on the National Finals Rodeo Committee.

But Corey, I've worked a bunch of rodeos with Corey, one of my closest friends.

So pretty excited to work with Steve Kenyon and Corey Keith.

They're announcing I'll be doing the music at the National Final Steer Roping in Mulvane, Kansas, the second weekend in November.

And one of the timers is a close family friend, Miss Kate Rumford, gets to go back.
