IHSA Regionals

Two JMU riders qualified for IHSA Regionals during the 2019-2020 show season. Senior Nicole Herzdik qualified to compete in Novice Equitation, and sophomore Sydney Spevak qualified for both Limit Flat and Limit Fences. Unfortunately, the 2020 IHSA post-season was cancelled due to COVID-19. We are very proud of the team for a great season and these two individuals for qualifying for regional finals.
