NDP concluded their regional championships in the top 3, short less than 30 points from 2nd place. There were several achievements and learning moments throughout the rainy weekend. Good luck to the district 2 teams advancing- Oxford, Clarkston, and Romeo 🐴

NDP Equestrian ended day one of regionals leading the pack and with just two events left in day two they are in second place overall. Good work team! Congrats to Grace Parker for double 1sts in equitation over fences & Colette Bockrath for double 2nds in the same class ☘️🐴

Congrats to the 2019 NDP Equestrian team for earning reserve champs at districts with 541 points, over 200 points ahead of the next team. They will be going to regionals in 2 weeks with district champs Oxford (643 pts). Good luck to all! #GoIrish ☘️🐎🏆

The team had a great practice show yesterday and couldn't be more excited for our season! Thank you Marc DeLisle for being an awesome judge/clinician. Less than three weeks until our first district meet!

Our coaches had fun at their retreat yesterday which included polishing their teamwork and problem-solving capabilities to make it out of an escape room! They're ready to go for the season 😉 #goirish #fightingirish #coachingfun

We are 1 week away from our 1st ever pre-season clinic, which will give our riders time with their coaches to check-in & identify what to focus on leading up to the fall competitions. Anyone interested in joining our team this season is invited to watch! DM us for info

[NDP Equestrian Team @NDPEquestrian]

The team had such a great weekend at @equineaffaire! Everyone watched some great clinics and learned something new, plus had a ton of fun in downtown Columbus, watching the Fantasia performance, and shopping of course! So glad we could do this as a team ❤️🐴

[NDP Equestrian Team @NDPEquestrian]

We're so excited to head down to Columbus this weekend for our 2nd annual team trip on Friday!

[NDP Equestrian Team @NDPEquestrian]

Equestrian team may be a fall sport, but since riding is year-round we are already beginning our recruitment efforts for this season! If you or someone you know might be interested in joining (as a rider or non-rider), DM us or email Coach Schmid at [email protected] 🐴

[NDP Equestrian Team @NDPEquestrian]

The team had a great saddle seat clinic at Maple Ridge Farm this past Sunday! The riders were able to try out a herd of Arabian horses and improve their equitation. Thank you to trainer Scott Voyt for hosting us! #ndpeq2019☘️ #saddleseat

[NDP Equestrian Team @NDPEquestrian]

Yesterday our speed riders and head coach went up to MSU to watch a barrel racing clinic with 7x national champion Brian Bannerman & left with ideas for new exercises to work on with their horses. Can't wait to see them run this fall! #turnandburn #GoIrish

[NDP Equestrian Team @NDPEquestrian]

What a great end to the season at the team banquet last night! Every one of our riders (and non-rider!) had amazing accomplishments this year, and everyone is already starting to prepare for next season. Here's to the best year in team history! 🐴🍀🏆

[NDP Equestrian Team @NDPEquestrian]

We had almost full team representation at the NDP Varsity Fall Sports banquet! Congrats to our award winners: Cara DeFelice (Most Improved), Kendall Lance (Scholar-Athlete), and Hailey Parent (Fighting Irish) 🍀🏆 #GoIrish

[NDP Equestrian Team @NDPEquestrian]

Come visit our booth at the @NDPMA Open House! Head coach Theresa Schmid, team captain Maegan Fitzgerald, and sophomore Kendall Lance will be there to answer all your questions about joining the team

[NDP Equestrian Team @NDPEquestrian]

We love & appreciate our non-rider, Hailey Parent! Even though she didn't compete, Hailey has always been an enthusiastic teammate, helping the other students prepare their horses and asking questions/learning from the coaches. Can't wait for you to ride next year! #goirish🍀

[NDP Equestrian Team @NDPEquestrian]

Can't believe it's already been a week since States! Special congrats to our finals high point riders, co-captain & Jr. Maegan Fitzgerald (58 pts) and So. Kendall Lance (46 pts). An amazing feat for their first time at States competing in new events on new horses this season!
