Campus Equestrian: Zone 1, Region 4 Home Page

IHSA ZONE 1 - REGION 4

Endicott College had their best season ever, even sitting in a tie for first place headed into the final regular season show before finishing behind Stonehill. Head coach (and former Skidmore College open rider) Megan Martin is seen here with Gulls introductory rider Lindsay Nygren during the March 16th Brandeis show. A senior from Gorham, Maine, Nygren (on left) won her intro class that day to qualify for Regionals. Three weeks later Nygren closed out her final IHSA season with a fifth in the division at Zone 1 Zones on April 6th.

The other Region 4 introductory rider to compete at Zone 1 Zones is Helene Friedman of Brandeis University (on left, with head coach Liz Kleinfeld). A senior from Hillsdale, Illinois, Friedman was sixth in the division at Zones on April 6th, which were held at the Mount Holyoke College Equestrian Center in South Hadley, Massachusetts (the site for IHSA Zone 1 Zones every year since 2005).

Boston University finished the season with three riders in the top ten of the Region 4 open rider standings inclucing Sean Mulleady (on left). A freshman from Bedford, New York, Mulleady was sixth overall. Sonia Agarwal of the Terriers (on right) finished the season as an open fences rider but spent much of the season in intermediate fences. A junior from San Mateo, California, Agarwal placed second at Zones in intermediate fences which insured her of a trip to 2024 IHSA Nationals in Tryon, North Carolina on May 3rd in the division.

Mulleady isn't the only rider from Bedford, New York who competed in Region 4 during the 2023-24 season. Tufts University senior Lydia Savitt (pictured) also hails from Bedford. Savitt is one of three Jumbos riders to qualify for Regionals this season, pointing out of novice equitation at the March 3rd Bridgewater State show.

Speaking of Bridgewater State University the Bears had two riders entered at Zone 1 Zones on April 6th with one of them being Samantha Burke (on left, with head coach Christine Murphy). A senior from Weymouth, Massachusetts, Burke closed out her final IHSA season with a third in individual limit flat at Zones.

Caroline Wargo was one of three Boston College riders to qualify for 2024 Regionals. A senior from Westfield, New Jersey, Wargo pointed out of both intermediate divisions and is seen here after placing fourth at Zones in the individual intermediate over fences division. Wargo also placed seventh in individual intermediate flat later that day. The Eagles were less than 15 points out of first place headed into the winter break before finishing the season in fourth place.

In 2023-24 Stonehill College captured their seventeenth Region Title in program history, all of which occurred since the 1992-93 season. This is the second such title with Kristen Redquest (on left) as the head coach, as she also led the Sky Hawks to a Region 4 Title in 2018-19. On the right is Lindsay Simmons, a Stonehill senior from Plainville, Massachusetts who qualified for Regionals in limit flat and closed out her season with a third in team intermediate over fences at Zones on April 6th.
