Quote of the Game
Director of Equestrian Haley Schoolfield
"We are certainly smarting from today's loss. We had a strong start in the fences and then got a bit weaker from there. The team knows what we need to do to bounce back for Kansas State. However, there were many exceptional rides including Carley Barnett earning her first MOP. A tip of the hat to Molly and Chantz who remain perfect this season. Lastly, congrats to SDSU on the win."
