Campus Equestrian: Zone 1, Region 5 Home Page

IHSA ZONE 1 - REGION 5

Seen here at the January 20, 2018 Winter Tournament of Champions in Coolville, Ohio are University of Connecticut teammates Amanda Lyons and Rebecca Mazzaferro. Since this photo was taken Mazzaferro has graduated but Lyons is back and hoping for a return trip to IHSA Nationals. From Halifax, Massachusetts, Lyons won individual novice over fences at Zone 1 Zones on April 7th and went on to finish her sophomore year with a tenth in the division at 2018 IHSA Nationals in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania on May 3rd.

It was a cold day when Connecticut College hosted at Mystic Valley Hunt Club on March 3rd, as Trinity College head coach Amy Kriwitsky (on right) is bundled up well. Carin Colebaugh of Trinity (on left) just missed a trip to 2018 IHSA Nationals. From Chester Springs, Pennsylvania, Colebaugh was third in individual intermediate on the flat at Zones in South Hadley, Massachusetts on April 7th.

Emma Brooks of Connecticut College also came close to reaching 2018 Nationals. Seen here with Camels coach Richard Luckhardt, Brooks finished her sophomore year by placing fourth in individual novice flat at Zone 1 Zones in South Hadley on April 7th.

Seen here at the December 4, 2016 Sacred Heart show is Arianna Tartaglia of Fairfield University. From Princeton, New Jersey Tartaglia finished just behind Brooks at Zones, taking home the fifth place ribbon in individual novice flat. Tartaglia was the lone member of the Fairfield team to compete at '18 Zones.

Through last February 24th Christina Stankey (on right) was the only member of the Yale equestrian team to have qualifed for 2018 Regionals. From Wayzata, Minnesota Stankey is seen here with then-Yale coach Louisa Fedora (who coached two teams in 2017-18 and still coaches Wesleyan University) and a horse whose name we forgot to ask (who teamed with Stankey to win her novice flat class). Stankey was already qualifed for Regionals in advanced walk-trot-canter when this photo was taken on March 3rd.

Before Tiffany Hajdasz (on left) became the hunter seat head coach at Sacred Heart University the Pioneers had never won a Region Title. Today Sacred Heart can claim to have won five of the past seven Region 5 hunter seat Region Titles. Open Rider Cariann Johnson (on right) has been on the roster for two of them. From Kinnelon, New Jersey Johnson led the Region 5 open rider standings in 2017-18 and is back for one more season to help the Pioneers try to win a third consecutive region title.
