· From pages 26, 27 of the print edition

Foxcroft School riders Sunday dominated the Children's/Adult Jumpers class of the Just Jumpers Horse Show at Frying Pan Farm Park in Herndon, VA. Senior Rachael Livermore of McLean VA, won the TimeFirst Round and placed in the three other events to earn Champion of Division honors while juniors Marguerite Szamborski (Southeast, NY) and Ansley Stone (Islamorada, FL) tied for Reserve Champion.

Foxcroft students, coached by Director of Riding Nelly Sheehand and Assistant Laurie Feickert, scored a stunning six-place sweep in the Power and Speed event of the competition. Stone won the event, followed senior Chelsy Coil (Middleburg, VA), Livermore, Szamborski, and juniors Katy Hurst (Bluemont, VA) and Louisa Fruehauf (Denver, CO)

The outstanding performance came a day after Foxcroft hosted a daylong clinic conducted by members of Lake Erie College's Equine Studies Department. The college students and teachers, who traveled from Lake Erie's campus near Cleveland, OH, worked closely with more than a dozen Foxcroft students on all aspects of riding and horsemanship. A number of top riders and teachers conduct clinics at Foxcroft, whose riding program is among the best in independent school.
