The No. 8 Baylor equestrian team defeated No. 5 Auburn 9-8 Friday at home in a rematch from this past fall.
Baylor traveled to Auburn in October and fell to the Tigers 15-4. This match was an opportunity for Baylor to avenge that rode loss and pick up a big win over a highly-ranked opponent.
Head coach Casie Maxwell said the match all came down to the last ride.
“There was an opportunity about half way through where we were down by a couple of points that we could have started to kind of fall under a little bit, but we didn’t,” Maxwell said.
