From Equitation To Eventing

Lucy Molinari is a longtime Hunter/Jumper trainer and the coach of the Kennesaw State University Equestrian Team, however, last weekend she traded in her hunt coat for a safety vest and won first place in the Beginner Novice Rider Division at the Chattahoochee Hills Horse Trials. When KSU student and dedicated eventer, Brittany Wyatt, was begged by some friends to join the KSU Equestrian Team Lucy jokingly told Brittany if she won one of the equitation classes at the IHSA shows, Lucy would try out eventing. Well only a short time later Brittany took home a ribbon in a class, and made Lucy hold up her end of the bargain! Lucy partnered with Therese Wyatt’s 16-year-old Warmblood gelding, Kozmo, and scored an impressive 22.9 in the dressage and only added a few show jumping time penalties to take home the blue.
