2012 ZONE 1 ZONES RESULTS
Five different riders won team classes for host Mount Holyoke
College as the Lyons were Zone 1 Zones champions with 47 points.
As is more often the case than not at Zone 1 Zones the race for
second place went down to the final class. Jacqueline Lubrano,
a Brown University sophomore from Glenmoore, Pennsylvania who
was making her IHSA Zones debut, won team open flat to lift the
Bears over the University of New Hampshire 39-36. Lubrano also
won team open over fences and individual open on the flat while
placing second in individual open over fences. Brown will take
a full hunter seat team to IHSA Nationals for the first time
since 2009.
If the results of the Zone 1 Zones individual classes say
something in particular it would be the balance between the
regions. Each of the four regions within Zone 1 will send
exactly four undergraduates to the National show in Raleigh,
North Carolina held the first weekend in May. Lubrano earned
two individual rides out of region 1 while University of New
Hampshire senior Kristen Phelps was first in individual
novice fences and second in individual novice flat for two
region 2 appearances at Nationals. Stonehill College tied
UNH for most individual riders advancing through Zones to
Nationals with three each though the Sky Hawks had the edge
with two blue ribbons via Casey Lorusso in individual open
fences and Emily Dolan in individual intermediate flat.
