K-State Equestrian Edged in Tie Breaker by Oklahoma State

STILLWATER, Okla. Despite ending competition in a 13-13 tie, the Kansas State Equestrian team dropped a Varsity Equestrian match-up with Oklahoma State Sunday after a tie breaker determining the winner gave the Cowgirls a slight 1720 to 1698.5 win.

The English and Western Varsity match-up ended in a 13-13 tie, but the tie was broken by adding up all the raw scores and dropping each team's lowest score from each class. The Cowgirls ended up ahead of K-State by 21.5 points.

The Cats began the day in Equitation over Fences with a 4-3 win and Whitney Snyder earned MVP honors by defeating Allyson Blais 80-69.

K-State then competed in Western Horsemanship winning 4-3, where freshman Mikaela Sundgren took home the MVP award.

K-State next competed in Equitation On the Flat where Oklahoma State won 5-2 convincingly. In the final match-up K-State defeated the Cowgirls 3-2 in Reining to tie the contest.

“I think we improved a lot today in comparison with our show on Friday,” head coach Teresa Slough said. “We were much happier with the results today. I really believe we are making progress in the right direction.”

There was also an Ancillary competition where girls form each JV squad competed. In the Ancillary Equitation match-up Oklahoma State shut-out K-State 3-0. Then in Ancillary Horsemanship Oklahoma State won the contest 2-1.

The Wildcats next competition will be Saturday November 4th as they host an IHSA Hunt Seat Show at Fox Creek Stables.
