"We had solid rides today and we tried to challenge ourselves to make improvements from our meet yesterday against South Dakota State. It will be a quick turn-around for us now to prepare for UC Davis and Oklahoma State this upcoming week."
The Rundown
The Horned Frogs and Golden Eagles begun their meet Friday, squaring off in Horsemanship. The Frogs were able to pull off a sweep earning three exceptionally high scores. Drew Rogers and Anna Hauter both grabbed a 76 while Cydney Benes turned in a 75.5. Hauter won the MOP, the first of her career.
Kicking off the action this morning, the Frogs picked up a 3-1 victory in Equitation over Fences. All three points earned by the Horned Frogs were by scores of 80 or more. Niki Barned finished with 81 points, good enough for an MOP, and was the highest scorer of the event.
The arena then changed over to Western for Reining. Josie Ferrante and Skylar Smith were the highest scorers of the event each grabbing a 68.5. Smith picked up the MOP, while Ferrante broke back into the win column. MG Reed won the third point for TCU, she won 65-0 on Gina over Jordyn Newberg.
The day concluded with Equitation on the Flat where the Frogs marked their second sweep. Wynne Weatherly punched in a 78, winning the Most Outstanding Performer, on Trooper. Lily Geelan won her second point in as many competitive tries. Niki Barnes and Izzy Baxter also picked up wins for TCU on General and Zappire, respectively.
