Weatherford College's Jace Helton and his team roping partner Quade Hiatt of West Texas A&M University rose to third place after two rounds at the College National Finals Rodeo in Casper, Wyoming. 

Helton and Hiatt turned in a 5.8 Tuesday morning, giving them a total of 12.5 on two. 

Despite a No Score on Tuesday, bull rider Dawson Gleaves remained in fifth place overall due to his opening round-winning 79.5. 

Zaine Mikita saw his CNFR come to an end with another No Score in tie down roping Tuesday night. He had a nice run of 8.9 Tuesday morning but his calf came untied. 

The CNFR continues through Saturday's finals at the Casper Events Center.
