<\/a><\/p>\nIn a battle described on the CW broadcast as \u201cGrit vs. Glitz,\u201d the lunch-bucket Texas Rattlers squad (1-0) rode the season\u2019s first 90-point ride from Daniel Keeping (Montague, Texas) to a 265.45-260.9 win over the 2025 regular season champions Florida Freedom (0-1). Keeping bested Tigger for 90.1 points to put Texas ahead of the Freedom in the second frame after an 87.3-point ride by Austin Richardson (Dallas, Texas), who the Freedom picked up from Nashville. Florida would regain the lead as Alex Cerqueira (Iguatemi, Brazil) rode The HONDO for 85.55 points, but Dawson Branton(Jefferson, Ore.) returning from injury, knocked down a crucial ride in the fourth frame with 87.65 points on Moose to give Texas the lead. 41-year-old Joao Ricardo Vieira (Itatinga, Brazil) then put the Rattlers a full bull ahead in the fifth with 87.7 points against Carlos Danger, giving Texas a 92.60-point cushion. While the Freedom\u2019s Joao Lucas Campos(Porto Feliz, Brazil) bested Dirty South for a mark of 88.05, it wasn\u2019t enough to catch Texas, who prevailed by 4.55 points.<\/p>\n
In defeating the Kansas City Outlaws (0-1), the Austin Gamblers (1-0) demonstrated their depth by riding three bulls even as three-time World Champion Jose Vitor Leme was bucked off. Behind a pair of early rides from Sage Steele Kimzey(Strong City, Okla.) (89.6 on Wicked Solo), Kaique Pacheco (Itatiba, Brazil) (88.1 on Sava), and a fifth frame score from Dalton Kasel (Muleshoe, Texas) (85.9 on Washita Red), the Gamblers outlasted the Outlaws 263.6-177.45. Heitor Santos Ferreira (Goiatuba, Brazil) (87.8 on Let\u2019s Roll) and Koltin Hevalow (McAlester, Okla.) (89.65 on Dirty Honey) recorded a pair of rides for Kansas City to keep them in the battle.<\/p>\n
In the highest-scoring game of the night, the Arizona Ridge Riders (1-0) bested the New York Mavericks 347.65-172.1 to improve to 8-0 all-time against the expansion team in the Big Apple. Arizona had a near perfect performance as Luciano De Castro (Guzolandia, Brazil) (86.85 on Real Deal), Eduardo Aparecido (Gouvelandi, Brazil) (87 on Tulsa Time), Elizmar Jeremias (Anapu, Brazil) (87.8 on Mike\u2019s Motive), and Eric Novoa (Vacaville, Calif.) (86 on Black Tie) each recorded a qualified ride. New York\u2019s pair of rides by rookie Dalton Allred (Cleveland, Utah) (83.6 on Big Bills) and the game\u2019s highest-scored ride \u2013 Marco Rizzo (Quitman, Ga.) 88.5 points on High Road \u2013 came up short in the loss.<\/p>\n
Saturday\u2019s competition came to a close as the Missouri Thunder (1-0) defeated the Oklahoma Wildcatters (0-1) 265-87.75 in the finale. Missouri opened the game with a trio of rides from Paulo Eduardo Rossetto (Colorado, Brazil), Julio Cesar Marques (Tatui, Brazil), and Felipe Furlan (Sales Oliveira, Brazil) to take the season-opening victory. While Rossetto\u2019s 88.5-point ride on Husky earned the win for the Thunder, Marques\u2019 89.55-point ride on Hoobastank was the highest of the game. Oklahoma recorded one ride for 87.75 points by Kaiden Loud (Kaufman, Texas) on Ugly This in the outing.<\/p>\n
