WEQ Weekly is back with another episode, brought to you by Educated Rider! 

We’re seven weeks into NCEA competition and closing in on postseason! Maddy and Raegan break down the latest matchups as the regular season winds down and teams fight to lock in their rankings.

This week, we’re joined by Auburn’s Alexia Tordoff for an unfiltered conversation about balancing horsemanship and reining at the D1 level. Alexia opens up about the challenges of collegiate equestrian, from checking your ego to navigating the pressures of competing at Auburn, a program known for its culture of hard work and excellence.

Plus, Maddy & Raegan read write-ins from current and former collegiate equestrians, sharing what they wish they knew before stepping onto the college riding scene. If you’ve ever wondered what it takes to thrive at the collegiate level, this is an episode you won’t want to miss!

We will be on a brief break for the next two weeks before diving head first into postseason coverage! Stay tuned into our social media for updates in the meantime!
