HORSEMANSHIP – Earning the highest score for the Aggies in Horsemanship, sophomore Kylie Jacobson scored an impressive 75.5. While riding Spookadee, she beat out the Gamecocks by 2.5 points to help the Ags secure the 3-2 overall win. This is Jacobson's second Horsemanship title of the season.
 
REINING – Dynamic duo senior Emma Dillon and GT scored a 69.5 in the reining department, scoring one of two Aggie points. This is Dillon's first ECAC accolade of the 2024-25 season, giving the senior an impressive send-off following her last home meet versus the Gamecocks.
