Sam Houston State University Rodeo Team

Sam Houston State University Rodeo Team Huntsville, the home of General Sam Houston, is located 60 miles north of Houston on Interstate-45 in the piney woods of South East Texas.

Huntsville has a population of about 30,000 and is in the center of the Southern Region of the National Intercollegiate Rodeo Association (N.I.R.A.) which means the rodeo team has less travel than any other school in the N.I.R.A. Huntsville is also a very good town to rodeo out of; regardless of the type of rodeoing you want to do. We are fortunate to have both indoor and outdoor practice arenas a

nd maintain practice stock almost year-round for timed events. The SHSU Rodeo Club is one of the oldest clubs on campus (active since 1950) and has produced more national champion rodeo teams than any other college or university in the nation! If you like the sport of rodeo and want to get a good education, Sam Houston is the college to attend.

We are so proud of Colin Fox for the outstanding year he is having!! Keep it up!! 🔥

Congratulations, Colin Fox!!

Texas cowboy Colin Fox is currently sitting at the top of the Resistol Rookie Steer Wrestling standings with more than $32,000 earned so far this season!

That’s an impressive start for the young bulldogger, and he’s proving week after week that he belongs among the best in PRORODEO. Fast, fearless, and consistent under pressure, Colin is making a serious name for himself in the steer wrestling world.

The rookie race is never easy, especially in an event as tough and physical as bulldogging. But Colin Fox keeps showing the grit and determination it takes to compete at the highest level.

Texas has to be proud of this cowboy right now. The future looks bright!
