Campus Equestrian: Zone 6, Region 3

IHSA ZONE 6 - REGION 3

The Midway University Eagle brought lots of good luck to the Midway Western Team at IHSA Nationals at Tryon International Equestrian Center last May and Jordan Schauer (on left) may have benefitted the most. The senior from Centerburg, Ohio placed in the top five four times, receiving fifth place in both individual reining and team reining; a fourth in individual open western horsemanship and most notably the Reserve National Championship in the individual High Point Open Rider competition to determine the top IHSA western open rider for the season.

Last season she told us she was from Gurney, Illinois. But at 2024 IHSA Nationals Roberta Cullinan of Miami University of Ohio (on right) said she calls Chicago her hometown. Seen here with Red Hawks head coach Heather Pinnick, Cullinan earned the top english ribbon of any Zone 6, Region 3 rider at '24 Nationals. Cullinan closed out her junior year by placing second in individual intermediate over fences which was the second hunter seat class held at 2024 Nationals. Cullinan was one of four riders called back to test, moving up from third to second following the testing.

Western riders from Zone 6, Region 3 did as well as any region over the first day of 2024 IHSA Nationals which was May 3rd. The first western rider to win a class at '24 Nationals was Kaitlyn Praisler of Morehead State University (pictured). From West Salem, Ohio, Praisler is seen here waiting for the individual ranch riding horse draw on May 3rd. A short time later Praisler closed out her junior year with a blue ribbon in the division. Other Region 3 riders who excelled on May 3rd were Kaylee Klein and Alana Utlak of Midway, with Klein second in team level I and Utlak the champion in team level II. And Schauer earned two of her top five ribbons that day as well.

The only Region 3 hunter seat rider not from Miami of Ohio to qualify for 2024 IHSA Nationals was Parker Myrus of the University of Kentucky (on right, with head coach Jodi Wanenmacher). From Portland, Oregon, Myrus previously was second in individual introductory equitation at Zone 6 Zones on April 6th to reach Nationals. Parker's freshman year with the Wildcats concluded with an eighth place ribbon in the division on May 4th.

Mary Roskins (on left) and Oliva Wilson (on right) accounted for nine of Miami University of Ohio's 13 points at 2024 IHSA Nationals. One day after Anabella Erikson-Brottet (not pictured) was sixth in team limit on the flat Wilson (sophomore, from Dayton, Ohio) repeated the ribbon in team intermediate over fences on May 4th. Roskins earned a fifth in team open over fences on May 5th and we would be remiss if we did not mention that Roskins (junior, from Omaha, Nebraska) was also the Region 3 Cacchione Cup entree at Nationals following a second in the Cacchione at Zones on April 6th.

Chase Summerville of Midway College (pictured) also had a memorable weekend at 2024 Nationals not far removed from teammate Schauer. From Albion, Pennsylvania, Summerville received a ninth in team ranch riding on May 4th but followed it up with a first in individual level II horsemanship on May 5th and a second in team open western horsemanship later that day to close out his sophomore year. The Eagles finished third overall with 38 points in the Western Team Competition, only one half point behind reserve champion St. Andrews.
