North Medford High School Equestrian Team

Hi, my name is AJ, and this is my first year doing OHSET. I am a member of the North Medford Equestrian Team. I have ridden horses my whole life and this is my second year showing. I compete in all of the performance events. I would like to thank my family and friends for all of the support they have given me. I’d also like to give a special thank you to Garnet Hilton for allowing me to ride her horse. Without their support, I wouldn’t be able to do what I do today. I would also like to thank my coaches, Lexi, Hailey, and Cassidy, for their guidance and encouragement. Without them, I wouldn’t be able to compete. Thank you.
