Hofstra Club Equestrian kicked off their semester in style with a
great showing at Good Shepherd Farm in Yaphank, New York on Sunday, October 4th.
Julissa Hoogeveen had the first ride and didn’t disappoint with fantastic rides
in the Open Flat and Intermediate Fences Divisions, earning a 3rd
and 1st respectively, and hence qualifying for the high point ride
off. Maria Sorrentino kept up HUEC’s good form with impressive displays in the Intermediate
Flat and Novice Fences earning a 3rd and 2nd place
ribbon. Julianna Foertsch notched 4th place in both her classes, and
Charlotte Wood’s performance in Novice Fences produced a 6th place
finish. New member Kate Milford had a notable debut, winning the Beginner Walk
Trot Canter class on her first outing for the Pride. Angelina Purcell and
Carrie Viscanti also showed for the first time, both competing in the Walk Trot
division successfully.
