Campus Equestrian: Zone 1, Region 4 Home Page

IHSA ZONE 1 - REGION 4

Seen here high atop the Equine Arena at the Pennsylvania Farm Show Complex in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania on May 5th are Stonehill College head coach Kristen Redquest and Skyhawks novice equiation rider Haley Whittaker. From Middleboro, Massachusetts, Whittaker won the individual novice class at Regionals on March 26th. Then two weeks later she was first again at Zones, becoming the only Region 4 rider to place in the top two in an individual class at Zone 1 Zones (not counting the Cacchione class). Whittaker was dressed way ahead of time at IHSA Nationals on May 5th, as this photo was taken before 10AM and her class was not until after 3PM. Whittaker closed out her junior year by placing second in the nation in novice that day. The Skyhawks will host a fall show on November 12th not at Winter's End Farm like in recent seasons but instead at Mor Linn Farm in Walpole, which is the current home to the Stonehill team.

From St. Albans, Vermont, Helen Barrow of Endicott College is seen here outside the Century Mills Stables indoor last October 31st. Barrow won her intermediate fences class that day to secure a place at Regionals in the division. Barrow closed out her junior year with two rides at Zones on April 9th, placing eighth in intermediate fences and fifth in intermediate flat. The entire region of Massachusetts schools will travel into New Hampshire on November 5th when Endicott (a school located near the New Hampshire border) hosts at Turning Point Show Stables in East Kingston, New Hampshire.

Three Bridgewater State University riders qualified for Regionals in 2021-22 and one of them advanced through to Zones. She is Ashley Crosby (pictured), and the then-junior from Littleton, Massachusetts was fifth in individual intermediate over fences in South Hadley, Massachusetts on April 9th to close out the season.

Masks were mandatory at Zone 1 Zones last April 9th but this photo of Elizabeth Nevins of Boston University is from the January 29th Winter Tournament of Champions invitational in Hardeeville, South Carolina (masks were also mandatory there). The Terriers have been invited to TOC series shows many times over the past five years and last January they placed eighth in a competition made up mostly of defending region champions and schools leading their respective regions in the current season. Nevins is seen here after placing fourth in the High Medal division, which is a separate class held in lieu of a ride-off for high point rider. Nevins was also fourth in her open flat class that day. At Zones Nevins was second in the Cacchione Cup Class to join Stonehill's Whittaker at Nationals. From Seattle, Washington, Nevins closed out the 2021-22 season by placing eighth in the pretigious Cacchione Class at Nationals on May 7th. Boston University will co-host the 2022-23 Region 4 season opener with Tufts University on October 15th.
