UNION — The Eastern Oregon Livestock Show rodeo marked its 102nd year, and spectators got to see a little of everything.

Lightning storms filled the sky Saturday, and was accompanied by rain. The Sunday final only saw brief periods of bad weather.

One truck from Texas left a little heavier. Traveling partners Tilden Hooper, Clint Cannon and Steve Anding took three of the top four spots in the bareback riding competition.

Hooper and Cannon each took home a share of the first-place check.

Marcus Michaelis won the bull riding event with a score of 85.

Brett Hale won the All-Around Cowboy award.

The Harley Tucker series continues at the St. Paul Rodeo July 4.

Elgin will host the Elgin Stampede July 10.
