Cowboy rides full circle
Bronc rider Stephen West began his career in Boro last year
W 042712 RODEO 01
Savannah native Stephen West, 23, comes out of the chute on horse 222 while competing in the bareback bronco competition during the Statesboro Kiwanis Rodeo Friday. West rode bareback for the first time at last year's inaugural Kiwanis Rodeo and soon after joined the Hedrick Rodeo Company as an employee.
A year ago, a Savannah man climbed onto the back of a bucking bronc for the first time at the Statesboro Kiwanis Rodeo. Friday, Savannah native Stephen West was back at the rodeo, making his first eight-second ride. A great deal happened in between, he said.
