Carly Hoft, freshman Hunt Seat rider on the Auburn equestrian team, is the second Hoft to become an Auburn Tiger. The freshman’s sister, Tory Hoft, was a 2016 graduate of the team and is now watching her sister make her own mark on The Plains as one of the newest faces of the 2017-18 roster.
The Raleigh, N.C., native came in with several impressive top 10 and top 5 finishes at major competitions, including placing second at the 2016 Devon Horse show in the USET, placing tenth at the Hunterdon Cup and at the North American Junior Equitation Championships in 2016, and placing seventh in the USET Finals earlier this fall.
