With a combined 15 first-place and 39 second and third-place ribbons, Averett University’s Intercollegiate Dressage Association (IDA) and Intercollegiate Horse Show Association (IHSA) teams have much to be proud of this semester. The IDA team kicked off the Equestrian Department’s outings at Wake Forest University, with the IHSA team traveling to High Point University and Emory & Henry University before IDA hosted their second show at Averett’s Equestrian Center.

The IDA team was named High Point Team at both outings, along with two students winning High Point Rider and 13 first-place finishes.
