COLLEGE STATION – The Texas A&M equestrian team ranks second entering the 2019-20 season in the National Collegiate Equestrian Preseason Poll, the NCEA Selection Committee announced Wednesday.
Â
The Aggies, who are coming off a semifinal appearance at the NCEA Championships last season, return 11 starters from a year ago, including All-Americans Alex Albright (Horsemanship), Ashley Davidson (Horsemanship) and Haley Redifer (Fences).
Â
The Aggies face a daunting schedule as 11 of their 12 regular season meets come against teams featured in the preseason poll.
Â
Two-time defending national champion Auburn sits atop the rankings while Georgia, Oklahoma State and SMU round out the top five.
Â
Baylor is ranked sixth, preceding South Carolina, TCU, Fresno State and UT Martin to close out the rankings.
Â
The Aggies show in their annual Maroon & White Scrimmage Sept. 27 before traveling to Fresno, California, to face TCU and Fresno State on Oct. 4 and Oct. 5, respectively.
