KANSAS CITY, Mo. –  The second day of PBR (Professional Bull Riders) Team Series competition in Kansas City, Missouri, featured crucial wins for the Missouri Thunder and Ariat Texas Rattlers. Meanwhile, the Arizona Ridge Riders overtook the No. 1 rank in the regular-season standings, and the Kansas City Outlaws remain in the hunt for their first game win during their three-day homestand inside T-Mobile Center.

After making history as the first team to win a game and an event in PBR Teams, the Missouri Thunder added another accolade to their resume, becoming the first team to secure a win without scoring first. The team’s first-round draft pick Colten Fritzlan delivered a walk-off score to lead the Thunder past the Austin Gamblers.

Winless until today, the Ariat Texas Rattlers knocked off the then-No. 1 Carolina Cowboys to earn the team’s first game victory. En route to the golden finish, the Rattlers registered three rides, the first time in any game they covered more than one bull.

The Arizona Ridge Riders ascended to the No. 1 rank in the Team Series standings after edging the Oklahoma Freedom by one ride score.

In the final game of the night, the Kansas City Outlaws were again denied a hometown win as both they and their Nashville Stampede opponents added losses to their records following a 0-0 tie.

PBR Outlaw Days will conclude Sunday, August 7 at 11 a.m. CT. Tickets are still available and can be purchased online at AXS.com, T-MobileCenter.com and PBR.com, or by calling PBR customer service at 1-800-732-1727.

Missouri Thunder: 86.75
Austin Gamblers: 86.25

Colten Fritzlan (Rifle, Colorado), the Missouri Thunder’s No. 1 draft pick, knocked down a clutch game-winning ride in the bottom of the fifth frame of the opening game for PBR Outlaw Days Saturday night to beat the Austin Gamblers 86.75-86.25.

Looking for more qualified rides and early momentum, the Gamblers, who began the game with a 1-2 record, slotted three new players into the starting lineup and moved two-time PBR World Champion Jose Vitor Leme (Ribas do Rio Pardo, Brazil) into the leadoff position. Initially matched up with Death Warrant (John Wyckoff/Frihauf Cattle Co.), Leme was awarded a re-ride after being marked only 62.5 points. With the Thunder unable to respond with a qualified ride as Leandro Machado (Nova Esperanca, Brazil) was bucked off by Midnight Flyer (Jane Clark/Gene Owen), the game remained scoreless through the midpoint of the third frame.

After watching as his teammate Lucas Divino (Nova Crixas, Brazil) could not convert, Leme converted aboard his re-ride Mr. Winston (Dakota Rodeo/Mark Baker/Clay Struve/Chad Berger), marked 86.25 points to give his team an early lead. Adriano Salgado (Batatais, Brazil) of the Thunder was then bucked off in a heartbreaking 7.69 seconds.

Following buckoffs by Dakota Louis (Browning, Montana) for the Gamblers and Clayton Sellars (Fruitland Park, Florida) for the Thunder, the game came down to the final round of riders. Ezekiel Mitchell (Rockdale, Texas) had the chance to clinch the win for the Gamblers but was denied when Magic Potion (K-C Bucking Bulls/Daniels Cattle Co.) dispatched him in 3.89 seconds. As a result, the game came down to the Thunder’s Fritzlan, who needed a minimum of 86.25 points to tie. As the chute gate burst open, the Colorado native was in perfect time with Cold Creek (Young Cattle Co./Rocking A/Braswell), reaching the whistle for 86.75 points, earning the Thunder their first victory of PBR Outlaw Days by 0.5 points.

When PBR Team Series competition in Kansas City continues Sunday afternoon, the Missouri Thunder (3-1) will face the host Kansas City Outlaws (1-3), while the Gamblers (1-3) will attempt to rebound against the Ariat Texas Rattlers (1-3).

“I’m feeling great,” said the Missouri Thunder’s Colten Fritzlan. “The bull tested me quite a bit. I’m just glad it all worked out. I wanted to make sure I got one rode for the team and myself. I’m loving it. I think if you keep it as simple as you can and stay on and do your job, it’ll all work out.”
