FRESNO, Calif. - The No. 8 ranked Fresno State equestrian team has added another home meet to an already exciting spring schedule.
Head coach Becky Malmo announced today that the Dogs are hosting Miami (Ohio) for a dual meet on Jan. 24 at 10 a.m. at the Student Horse Center.
"Miami is an emerging program that has been a traditionally strong IHSA program," said Malmo. "We are thankful to get them on the schedule and it will be nice to have a meet the week before we host the defending national champions."
Fresno State is ranked No. 8 in the most recent National Equestrian Coaches Poll. The Bulldogs spring schedule also includes two dual meets Feb. 7-8 against defending national champion Georgia, currently ranked No. 3 in the nation, and No. 10 New Mexico State.
The Bulldogs host their annual Best of the West Tournament Feb. 14-15 before concluding the home schedule with a pair of dual meets against two Top 10-ranked teams. No. 7 South Carolina and No. 5 Baylor will visit the Student Horse Center the weekend of Feb. 28 and March 1.
The Dogs are riding a two-match winning streak, having beaten No. 5 Oklahoma State and Delaware State on Nov. 8 in their last match of the fall portion of the season.
