Equestrian Team Members Advance to Nationals

After competing in Zone 7 Championships, three members from the Truman Equestrian Team will advance to the Intercollegiate Horse Show Association National Championships.

The Zone 7 Championships took place April 6 at West Texas A&M where Caitlin Shaefer, Danielle Witt and Elizabeth Miller all qualified for nationals. Schaefer placed second in the walk-trot equitation, Witt was awarded second place in the novice equitation on the flat and Miller placed second in the open equitation on the flat.

Zone championships are the final step for IHSA champions. From this competition, the top two individuals qualify to move on to nationals. Miller, Schaefer and Witt will travel to Harrisburg, Pa., for the 2013 national competition May 2-5.
