A stalwart member of the U.S. Eventing squad since he was named USEA Young Rider of the Year in 2002, Faudree’s impressive resume has provided him the experiences to become a successful rider, trainer, and coach.
In 2003, Will was a member of the gold medal-winning team at the Pan American Games and received the Lionel Guerrand-Hermes Trophy for exemplifying the U.S. Equestrian Team’s ideals of sportsmanship and horsemanship. A traveling reserve for the 2004 Olympic team, Faudree rode on the 2006 FEI World Equestrian Games (WEG) team in Aachen, Germany. He later went on to be short-listed for the 2010 WEG and 2013 Olympic teams, and just finished 14th in the latest Kentucky Land Rover CCI5*.

Day 1 is a wrap at the 2024 USEF/USEA Developing Horse Championships at Morven Park International, and we saw a familiar face rise to the top in the CCI3*YH-S Championship, while the leading CCI2*YH-S competitor is making her international debut.
