Kansas City Outlaws Go 2-1 During Freedom Days; Hold Steady at Fifth in PBR Camping World Team Series Standings
The Kansas City Outlaws left Freedom Days with a 2-1 record, defeating the Oklahoma Wildcatters Friday with a near-perfect four-ride night 337.75-260.25 and backing it up with a 171-86 win over the Nashville Stampede Saturday. The squad fell just short of the perfect weekend Sunday in a 175.5-86.5 loss to the Florida Freedom at their homestand.
Kansas City owns a 5-3 record throughout the first three events of the season to sit fifth in the standings. The Arizona Ridge Riders (7-1), Texas Rattlers (6-2), Florida Freedom (5-3), and Austin Gamblers (5-3) currently set above the Outlaws.
Despite having two qualified rides, Koltin Hevalow fell from the lead in the Team Series MVP standings, remaining in the Top 5 in fourth at 502.5 points and just 16.25 points shy of regaining the lead. Joining him in the Top 10, Sandro Batista sits eighth with 432.25 points. With a typical ride ranging from 85-90 points, the top only remains a ride or two for both riders.
Outlaw Days presented by LP Solutions continues to edge closer with the new dates set to October 3-5. A three-day event, Outlaw Days will host the best bull riders and rankest cowboys in the world at T-Mobile Center. Tickets are available on PBR.com, AXS.com, the T-Mobile Center Box Office, or by calling PBR customer service at 1-800-732-1727.
