BIOGRAPHY
A member of the PRCA since 2016, Egusquiza, a header, made his fifth trip to the NFR in December. The 26-year-old cowboy rode into Las Vegas in 2021 ranked No. 1 in the world, with $151,176 in prize money for the year and career earnings of more than $619,000. He finished third in the world standings in 2021.
In 2023, he finished seventh in the world standings.
Egusquiza, whose father Manny Sr. was his teacher, competed in junior rodeos before and during high school both in team roping and tie-down roping. He qualified for the NHSFR three years and won the state title in team roping in Alabama his senior year.
In 2015, four-time IPRA World Champion Stephen Britnell asked Dustin to head for him. The following year, Egusquiza finished 18th in the world standings and was named the PRCA Resistol Rookie of the Year for Team Roping.

COWBOY CHRISTMAS
Dustin Egusquiza racked up several big wins during Cowboy Christmas, the frenzied week around July 4, to jump to No. 2 in the world in the PRCA world standings.

WILD CARD
Dustin Egusquiza made his presence known at the prestigious San Antonio Stock Show and Rodeo last weekend, winning both the Wild Card Round and Finals with new partner Levi Lord. The pair stopped the clock in the final round with a 3.1 to win big.
“We had to go through the wild card, and luckily we made a good run there,” Egusquiza said.
The San Antonio Stock Show & Rodeo attracts more than two million visitors each year and is widely considered one of the nation’s top PRCA events. For 14 consecutive years - the last one in 2018 - it garnered PRCA Large Indoor Rodeo of the Year.
Egusquiza first won the San Antonio event in 2020 with partner Travis Graves.

A DREAM
COME TRUE
Growing up on the East Coast in Florida - three hours later than Las Vegas - Dustin Egusquiza would stay up all night to catch National Finals Rodeo competition on television. The event was a magical time every December.

OF YEAR
Heading into the 2021 NFR in Las Vegas next month, team roper Dustin Egusquiza sits on top in the world standings. But ask the four-time NFR qualifier if he’s excited about his place in the rankings, he’ll tell you there’s still a bit of unfinished business.
