Equestrian - SMU vs. Texas A&M

by **DanFreibergerForHeisman** » Thu Feb 02, 2012 7:38 pm

SMU is back in action as the spring portion of the season gets underway Friday at 10am at BuckBranch Farm in Wilmer.

The Mustangs are currently 5-4 after a surprising and disappointing three-show losing streak to close the fall portion of the season.

A&M is 5-3 in the Hunter Seat portions of their competitions so far this year. Overall, Texas A&M is 7-1, with their only loss a 12-11 loss at Baylor. The Aggies are currently ranked No. 3 by the NCEA so SMU will certainly need to have a good day. Friday will be the first show of the spring for both teams.

Hopefully SMU will get back on a winning track to start the spring! Go Ponies!
