IHSA Nationals 2014 - Day 3

As predicted the afternoon was super busy. Before we knew what had happened it was 7:15 p.m. and the last class of the day had just finished. After a few phone calls Liz found an Applebees willing to take our party of about 35 people which included many parents.

Kelsey Kocher made the cut for the Cacchione Cup and came back to ride in the flat section of that class. Team wise we had a great afternoon of showing. Michelle Hustad kicked it off with a 3rd place in Team Reining and followed that up with a 4th place in the Individual Open Horsemanship. Up next was Jake Hobson who turned in a very respectable 6th place in the Team Walk, Trot Equitation. Jessica Story rocked the St. Andrew’s bench with a beautiful ride to earn the Champion ribbon in Team Walk, Trot, Canter Equitation. To end the day Logan Teeter rode beautifully in the Novice Horsemanship to 4 more points for the Western Team.

Both teams end the day with 8 points. Tomorrow the first bus load heads to the Farm Show Complex at 6:45 a.m. The first class of the day is the Team Open Equitation Over Fences, Kelsey Kocher riding for St. Andrews.
