Meet Your 2012 Tie Down Roping Champion
2012 was a good year for Treston Vermandel, who rides the 2012 Calf Horse of the Year, Cubby. After attending just 10 rodeos and winning the 1st round at the finals, Treston won enough to capture the 2012 Champion Tie Down Roping title. This was a good thing, as Treston had promised his 4 year old daughter, Havyn, a belt buckle as they left their home in Shepherd for the NRA Finals in October, and she wasn’t going to return home without it!! Treston grew up outside of Billings, MT, part of a strong rodeo family. He participated as a junior member of the NRA and has continued on as a member of the NRA for the last eleven years, although he has intermittently taken 1 or 2 years off. He has been to the NRA Finals six times. Treston graduated from the University of Wyoming with an Ag Business Degree in 2004. He married his wife, Callie in 2005. They have two children, Havyn (4) and Tayce (1). Treston currently works as Production Foreman at OrIgen, Inc, a beef genetics company outside of Billings.
