Equestrian team beats Baylor, remains undefeated

The seventh-ranked K-State equestrian team held off the Baylor Bears and improved to 2-0 Saturday in Manhattan.

The team rallied from a 5-0 deficit and won for the second time this season against a top-10 team.

The Wildcats started off slow during the Hunt Seat competition, dropping all five points to Baylor in Equitation over Fences. They came back and won 3-2. Kali Yates, freshman, picked up her first win and also finished with the highest score on the team with 92.

K-State tallied a 3-1 win in the Horsemanship discipline featuring five seniors. Laura Browne, senior, won MVP for a second consecutive competition.

The team also had a successful day in Exhibition play. They picked up five victories with two coming in the Horsemanship discipline from Kyla Copple, senior, and Rebecca Wallisch, sophomore.

K-State will host sixth-ranked Oklahoma State at Fox Creek Farm Oct. 31., as they look to go 3-0 against top-10 teams this season.
