TOP QUOTE
Head coach Casie Maxwell
On the day…
"I'm proud of their fight in every single ride today. They really pushed hard and pushed limits. We stayed for the most part pretty penalty-free. This has been one of the toughest competitors we've faced all year, and they didn't let that waiver their mentality or confidence heading into this meet. They just kept pushing every single ride. It's about peaking at the right point in the season, and I think we're getting closer and closer every meet. The most important meets are still in front of us."
WHAT'S NEXT
Baylor will host the Big 12 Championship from March 27-28 at the Willis Family Equestrian Center. Seeding and times will be released at a later date.
