M.L.’s Cody Coverchuk wins hometown bull riding title
The crowd at the Meadow Lake Arena erupted in cheers while watching hometown bull rider Cody Coverchuk.
By the end of the evening, the rafters were rumbling as he took the top spot at Mayhem in Meadow Lake festivities as a part of Stampede Week on Thursday, June 8.
After getting bucked off in the first round, he came back strong in the second round, staying on the steer for around 15 seconds. This qualified him for the championship round, where he was the only rider to stay on for the qualifying eight seconds.
Coverchuk was second place out of six overall heading into the championship set, led only by Pierceland’s Brian Hervey, who opted out of the final round due to an injury. Brian Hervey sat at 84.5.
