HEAD JUMPING SEAT COACH LOGAN FIORENTINO
"The first meet of the spring really is a springboard for the rest of the season. We start looking toward conference and national championships. It's always important to get out of the gate quickly and on a strong foot."
HEAD WESTERN COACH MELISSA DUKES
"We are so excited to start off the spring with at the Stock Show. It's a lot of fun, the girls really enjoy it and our fans seem to come out and support it well. Plus, getting a win is always a little more fun at the Stock Show."

SCOUTING THE FROGS

In Western, freshman Elizabeth Clymer finds herself back in the Reining lineup, making her second career start. The Frogs bring in a plethora of experience to the John Justin Arena with six seniors set to ride.
