A tie-down roper dismounts and runs for the steer Saturday, July 30, 2022, during the final night of the 76th Chief Joseph Days Rodeo in Joseph.

JOSEPH — Caleb McMillan of Soap Lake, Washington, was named the winner of this year’s Harley Tucker Rodeo Series Award at the conclusion of the 76th Chief Joseph Days Rodeo on Saturday evening, July 30, at the Harley Tucker Memorial Arena in Joseph.

McMillan, in his first win of the award, won $3,000 and a silver belt buckle for the honor. Two more wins and he has a chance at an accumulative fund that goes up $1,000 each year, Allison France, rodeo secretary, said Monday.

The series award goes to the contestant achieving the highest cumulative scores at the Eastern Oregon Livestock Show in Union, the St. Paul Rodeo in St. Paul, the Elgin Stampede in Elgin and Chief Joseph Days in Joseph.

McMillan won with 15½ points, which none of the contestants Saturday was able to match. He is a multiple-event contestant, competing in bull riding, tie-down roping and steer wrestling.

Taylor Santos was awarded the title — and buckle — for all-around cowboy Saturday, July 30, at the conclusion of the four-day 2022 Chief Joseph Days Rodeo.

The 27-year-old Santos from Colorado Springs, Colorado, won a total of $322 in tie-down roping and steer roping, according to the website of the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association.

The total payoff for the rodeo was $126,998.
