AUBURN, Ala. – The No. 3 Auburn is set to face Berry College in a single-discipline meet Friday at 3 p.m. CT at the Auburn Equestrian Center. Admission is free and the meet will serve as the team’s annual Breast Cancer Awareness Meet.
“It’s the first time we’ve competed against Berry, so it’ll be fun to see a new team,” Auburn head coach Jessica Braswell said. “We’ll get to mix up our lineup this weekend and give some other athletes opportunities as we prepare to go to Texas.”
Auburn enters the meet 1-0 after a dominant 16-2 victory over then-No. 8 Baylor at home on Oct. 4. The Tigers swept Most Outstanding Performer honors in that meet as Avery Glynn, Alexia Tordoff, Sydney Swallom and Caroline Olsen each earned MOP recognition.
Only jumping seat events will be contested Friday against the Vikings, beginning with Flat followed by Fences. Auburn found success in the jumping seat events during the season opener, going 4-1 on the Flat and 4-0-1 in Fences.
The Auburn Flat lineup will include Sadie Berkhout, Kate Hagerty, Baylee McKeever, Charlotte McLaughlin and Kate Parker. Berkhout, Hagerty, Ariana Marnell, McKeever and Molly Segars will ride in Fences.
Fans are encouraged to wear pink in support of breast cancer awareness. Pink inflatable hobby horses will be given away while supplies last. The meet will stream live on SEC Network+ and ESPN+, with live scoring available at AuburnTigers.com.
