Discipline teaches equestrian’s Holly Carter to reach future goals

By Danielle Skinner | Reporter

After taking the leap from Canada to the U.S. to attend college, senior western rider Holly Carter said her peaceful and fun sport built relationships and taught her lessons through Baylor’s equestrian team that will last a lifetime.

A native of Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada, Carter said she begged her parents to put her in lessons; when she was 12-years-old, she finally got what she had always asked for.

What her parents thought was going to be a phase turned into a lifestyle. Carter was able to turn her horseback riding hobby into something that would take her much further than she ever imagined.
