Seen here awaiting horse draw for team novice western horsemanship at IHSA Nationals on May 11th is Ohio State's Hilary Bedford. She didn't know it at the time, but the senior from Hilliard, Ohio would place first out of nine riders in the division to put the Buckeyes ahead for good. Ohio State went on to capture their ninth western team national championship since 1991, edging out Findlay by a 27-26 score.
