The Basics
The No. 5 Oklahoma State equestrian team will honor its seniors as No. 8 Fresno State comes to Stillwater on at 1 p.m. on Saturday, March 8, at Pedigo-Hull Equestrian Center. The Cowgirls are coming off a road loss to SMU and look to bounce back against the Bulldogs. Fresno State claimed the victory over OSU in Fresno during the fall season, despite strong showings from OSU riders throughout.
About the Cowgirls
Head coach Larry Sanchez, in his 26th year at the helm, leads the Cowgirls alongside sixth-year assistant Laura Brainard, third-year assistant Carter Anderson, second-year assistant Alle Durkin and consultant Jody Brainard.
Conference Leaders
The Cowgirls went 4-2 against Big 12 opponents last season, including two wins on their way to the program's first ever conference championship four-peat, something no team in the Big 12 had previously accomplished.
An Oklahoma State Win Would...
- Improve its home record against Fresno State to 9-0
- Improve its conference record to 3-2
- Be its second-straight conference win
- Improve its season-record to 7-4
- Be head coach Larry Sanchez' 17th win over Fresno State

Claire McDowall earned the award in Horsemanship, while Quincee Clark received the Big 12 Reining Co-Rider of the Month. In November, three more Cowgirls earned Big 12 Rider of the Month awards and Emma Filiatreau was named NCEA Reining Rider of the Month for November.
Who to Watch
- Senior Riley Hogan has 60 combined career wins and sits third place in OSU history for combined career wins. She also has 39 career Fences wins, the most in Cowgirl history. She scored a new career-high 89.5 in Flat this season at TCU.
- Claire McDowall has a 6-4 record and earned MOP honors in four rides this year. She currently sits at fifth place in OSU history for Horsemanship wins. Coming off her second consecutive All-American selection, she looks to add to one of the highest win totals in Horsemanship in Cowgirl history.
- Senior Quincee Clark is 6-3-1 on the season. She has 28 career wins in Reining and has a season-high score of 73.75, which she earned in the previous matchup against the Bulldogs. The captain earned an MOP this season against TCU.

- Freshman Gable Gering scored a 91.5 in Flat this season against SMU. Her score was the highest score by any OSU freshman in the event and was half a point away from tying the school record in the event.
- Emma FIliatreau holds an 8-2 record this season. She currently holds a six-ride win streak. She has collected MOP honors against Baylor, UC Davis, SMU, and Fresno State. The sophomore also set a new career-high at Fresno State with a 74.5 score, tying the season high for all OSUÂ reiners.
