K-State’s equestrian team will kick off the 2015-16 season on Sunday with the fifth annual Purple-White Scrimmage. The scrimmage is designed to give riders the opportunity to compete in a varsity setting.
“We have had great preparation heading into the season and this scrimmage allows everyone a great opportunity to see where they stand,” head coach Casie Maxwell said to K-State Sports. “Coaches get to see riders perform under pressure and athletes get to assess what they need to focus on before the first countable competition. It is a great test run and also a rare opportunity to see everyone have the opportunity to compete.
