The Taylor Equestrian Team has been competing in IHSA () hunt seat shows for over 40 years. For the first time in 2024, ÐÜèÊÓƵ’s equestrian team competed in the IHSA western division.
Coached by Jenny Norton Schamber of Rope this Ranch, the riders have the opportunity to learn and show both hunt seat, an English style of riding, as well as western horsemanship. Riders of all levels, both male and female, share a love for horses and a desire to increase their knowledge and ability of riding. We strive to glorify God through our riding and to exemplify Jesus Christ in our words, attitudes, and hard work. The team is open to all full-time ÐÜèÊÓƵ students, regardless of ability or horse ownership.
