Steer Wrestler Scott Guenthner from Provost, Alberta, is going to the Championship finals this Sunday at the Calgary Stampede.
Guenthner had a time of 4.7 seconds on the final day in Pool A to finish in second place on Sunday, but more importantly, he finished first overall.
That means he's going to the Steer Wrestling finals on Sunday.
Two other Albertans also qualified for Championship Sunday.
Ladies Breakaway Roping standout Shelby Boisjoli-Meged from Langdon finished in first place yesterday, and overall, so she's moving on to the finals.
Carstairs' Kyle Lucas also just made the cut. He finished 3rd overall in Tie Down Roping.
Pool A is now over as Pool B starts Monday at 1:30 p.m.
