WACO, Texas – No. 4 Baylor equestrian (4-3, 2-1) is hitting the road for a contest at No. 1 Oklahoma State (4-1, 3-0) at 11 a.m. Sunday at the Pedigo-Hull Equestrian Center in Stillwater, Okla.

This will be BU’s third meet against a top-two opponent already in 2021-22. The Bears are looking to bounce back after a narrow 10-8 defeat at No. 2 Texas A&M last time out.

Previously this year, OSU bested the Bears in Waco, 10-9, coming from behind to take the final two points and the meet. Two Bears, Jenna Meimerstorf and Dominika Silvestri, gathered their first-career Most Outstanding Performer honors in the prior matchup.

Baylor has won 16 of its 28 individual events this season, including a 4-0 sweep in Horsemanship on Sept. 24 at No. 10 UT Martin and a 5-0 sweep in Reining on Nov. 5 vs. TCU. It’s the first time the Bears have recorded sweeps in each of the two Western events since the 2019-20 season.

Seventeen different Bears have recorded points in the 2021-22 campaign, including Shelby Clausen (Reining) and Caroline Fuller (Fences), who are both 6-1 in their respective events. Clausen was named the NCEA’s Reining Rider of the Month for January after her performance at TAMU. Fuller has also racked up the award collection so far this season, garnering five Rider of the Month honors from either the Big 12 or NCEA.

OSU leads the all-time series with the Bears, 30-13, including wins in each of the last six meetings. This will be the Cowgirls’ first meet of the spring. They lost their last decision, 10-5, against SMU. Three of their four wins have come by just one point.

Live scoring for the meet will be available here.<https://okstate.com/sports/2016/10/20/equestrian-live-scoring.aspx>
