2004-2005 Results IDA Nationals Hosted by Lake Erie College April 22-24 Team Competition RESERVE CHAMPION Rider - Level - Score - Place Nicole Mazzeo - First - 68 - 3rd Asheley Ireland - Upper Training - 66 - 6th Nadine Krause Lower Training 68.9 1st Jaimee Steiner Intro 66 4th Just wanted to let everyone know that we had a GREAT day at Nationals today!! The team placed 2nd with 13 points, just 1 point behind the champion team- Lake Erie College. UC Davis placed 3rd, Centenary placed 4th (i think), Virginia Intermont was 5th and I can't remember who was 6th at this point, I think maybe Cazenovia. . Our individuals did amazingly well- we were the only team to have all of our riders in the top 6 in their class. Nicole got a 68ish and 3rd place in first level, Asheley made a HUGE difference on the horse she drew and placed 6th with a 66%, Nadine won Lower Training with a 68/69ish% and Jaimee got 4th in Intro with a 66%. It's been a long day-- we just now got back from dinner, and we have another long day ahead of us with individual day tomorrow. We've got some good draws though, so it should be a lot of fun!

Katy placed 4th and made a HUGE difference on her horse-- he spent most of the day before running with a huge underneck and she got on and suddenly a topline appeared! Nicole also put in a great test on a hard horse. Unfortunately the horse wasn't quite interested in changing the way it went, so she was 10th. Asheley also had a GREAT ride on her horse, and placed 4th overall with a 69%. Janne and Jaimee were beasts in intro-- Jaimee placed 7th with a 62% and Janne was 5th with a 65%. We've had a GREAT trip thus far-- some of us went to the zoo and saw tons of animals on Thursday while some of us saw the impressionist exhibit at the art museum, we've had a great time getting to know some of the other teams in the region and will be possibly having dinner with them tonight, and ended our day at the show today with a dance party in the parking lot. All in all, just another great weekend with our dressage family :) Dressage Team Results for the Mount Holyoke Dressage and Combined Training Show Sunday, April 17, 2005 Dressage: Intro Test B: Janne Matzner-Gore – Blinky – 72% – 1st Jamiee Steiner – Jake – 66% - 2nd Training Test 1: Chelsea Shields-Mαs – Dijon – 59% - 3rd Training Test 2: Chelsea Shields-Mαs – Jake – 70.7% - 1st Nadine Krause – Wellie – 70.3% - 2nd Sarah Robison – Chewy – 65.7% - 4th Training Test 4: Eli D’Agosto – Blinky – 66.1% - 2nd Amelia Shenstone – Dijon – 65.71% - 3rd Inge Schmidt – Rowan – 65.3% - 5th Asheley Ireland – Gus– 64.2% - 6th First Test 2: Lauren Morlock – Ron – 69.1% - 2nd Jessie Doernberger – Hayden – 64.4% - 3rd Nicole Mazzeo – Chewy – 63.5% - 4th Amelia Shenstone – Dijon – 62.9 – 5th First Test 4: Nicole Mazzeo – Wellie – 71.1% - 1st Katy d’Ambly – Pflash – 68.06 – 3rd Combined Training: Riding Academy: Catherine Tauscher – Pflash – 75% - 1st Jessie Doernberger – May – 67% - 2nd Open Novice: Asheley Ireland – Harbour Lee – 18.5 - 1st Lucy Cheney – Rakkety Tam – 47.5 - 6th Johnson & Wales April 9th Rider Level Horse Score Place Nicole Mazzeo First Louis 64 1st Asheley Ireland Upper Training Magique 65.00 2nd Kristen Rosseau Upper Training Mick 60.38 5th Nadine Krause Lower Training Slipper 63.46 4th Jaimee Steiner Intro Lara 66.19 4th UMASS April 3rd Rider Level Horse Score Place Nicole Mazzeo First Roberta 67.65 2nd Katy d'Ambly First Milo 68.24 1st Asheley Ireland Upper Training Heart 60.77 3rd Inge Schmidt Upper Training Notorious 55.77 Nadine Krause Lower Training Prestige 65.38 5th Sarah Robison Lower Training Patriot 63.08 Jaimee Steiner Intro Eve 72.38 1st Janne Matzner-Gore Intro Precision 68.57 5th Mount Holyoke College Homeshow!

Becky was quite suprised when we went trick-or-treating at her hotel room door. On the way back from the show the team used the videocamera's night vision function for some fun footage. And we're back from UNH. We had a GREAT time-- 60* weather, sunny, some fun horses, and gaining an hour of sleep, what more do we need?? They had some lame horses, so unfortunately we were only able to send one team. . The team got 4th. . Cathrine was 4th in her class with a 65.5ish (and right up there in the top placings), Asheley had a great ride and got a 3rd with a 63%, Marija also had a great ride on an adorable pony and got a 58.5%, and Janne got the gold star of the day-- her horse was pulled after it's first test, so she got an alternate who was never really connected in his reride, and she went with it and hopped on and put that horse together like it was nobody's business and got 2nd with a 63%!! So once again, a tired, but immensely happy dressage team!!
