Name: Alli DiPietro
Social Class: Senior Major: Biology, public health minor, pre-med track Competes in: Open fences, Intermediate flat I have been riding in the hunter/jumpers since I was four. I did short stirrup when I was younger and progressed into the equitation, in which I competed nationally throughout my junior years in the A and AA circuit in shows like Old Salem, the Winter Equestrian Festival, and the National Horse Show. I am so excited to be a part of this team and create fun memories surrounded by my incredible teammates and the most giving creatures! |

Name: Sadie Stott Social Class: Senior Major: Biology, Environmental Sciences Competes in: Limit fences and flat I’ve mainly done the hunters with a touch of equitation every now and then. I competed in IEA from grade 6-12 going to Nationals my last three years where I placed second on the flat for both novice and intermediate as well as placing first in the Holy Innocents Horsemanship test. I also enjoy fox hunting with my mom and just generally goofing around with my friends at the barn! |

Throughout middle and high school, I competed in IEA up to the Open level and was my team’s captain my senior year. I currently show in the jumpers on local and rated circuits and have owned a wonderful mare named Wish since I was 15. She’s taught me so much and every ride with her makes me happy. I’m so excited about being a part of the team, and I can’t wait for a great season! |

Name: Noa Zielinski
Social Class: Junior Major: Government Competes in: Limit flat, Intermediate fences I have been riding since I was 4 years old and started showing competitively about 8 years ago. While I have never had a horse of my own, my family made sure riding was always a part of my life and I am so excited to have found a school with such an amazing team to continue with! About three years ago I began showing in jumpers and spent this past summer competing at HITS Saugerties. This is my first time competing in IHSA shows and I can’t wait to see where this amazing team takes me. |
