Wyatt Althoff, an NMSU Rodeo alumni, past away this weekend in a boating accident. He was a great competitor and champion, he won numerous college rodeos for NMSU, his greatest College Rodeo achievement was winning the 2008 NIRA All-Around World Champion title. Wyatt also won the 2008 DuBois Award, an award given to the highest points earned by an NMSU Rodeo athlete.

Wyatt will be deeply missed by all of us who knew him. Our thoughts, prayers and sincere condolences to all of his friends and family.


One of my great pleasure's through my involvement with the DuBois Rodeo Award was getting to know Wyatt and his wonderful family.  This is such a great loss.

I was fortunate to have grown up with Wyatt in Oracle, Arizona. He and his family were amazing people and I am deeply saddened to hear this news.

He was merely beginning his journey into life and was an exemplary man, in which he would have been a great husband, father, and mentor to a young roper-in-training
Wyatt, you will be missed!
