Steer wrestler Riley Duvall of Checotah, Okla., points to childhood cancer patient Emery Balch in the Thomas & Mack Center stands following his go-around on Sunday at the National Finals Rodeo. “I told her if I did good at the rodeo I’d come see her,” Duvall said. “She’s such a fighter, and I want to encourage her.” (PRCA photo by Phill Kitts)
