Earle will join 15 other riders in the single-elimination, bracket format competition on Friday, Feb. 10 at the Palm Beach International Equestrian Center in south Florida.
The event will be run in the National Collegiate Equestrian Association (formerly Varsity Equestrian) head-to-head format over an equitation course and will be formatted similar to postseason team tournaments in sports such as college basketball, volleyball and soccer.
The 16 competitors were chosen from collegiate equestrian programs across the country, with selections based upon individual national rankings. No more than one rider was selected from each school.
Earle recorded a team-best 5-1 record over fences this fall, helping lead the Aggies to a 7-1 record and a No. 2 national ranking.
Texas A&M's Brooke Coleman won the event last year as a senior.
