No. 1 SMU Equestrian wins national quarterfinal
Top-ranked SMU equestrian started off the NCEA National Championships with a 10-8 comeback victory against No. 8 Baylor in the quarterfinals on April 13.
The team trailed by one point heading into the Horsemanship event but won four out of the five points behind great rides from all-Americans Mallory Vroegh, SMU graduate, and Nya Kearns, junior.
“We had to knock some rust off, but they really rode well,” said Carol Gwin, head coach of SMU equestrian. “It was a great meet and a very good competition.”
