For nearly two hours, over 100 people sat spellbound in the Hesburgh Library Auditorium, a location general­ ly noted for its sleep-inducing lectures and bad acoustics. This past Monday, while Sylvan sang and Breitman played the fortepiano, the auditorium was transformed into a rich musical chamber.

ordan and Pippen. Montana and Rice. Gretzky and Messier. JPartnerships often make up the most colorful parts of sports history. How about Jen and Bozo the horse? Well, they might not make the head­ lines of the previous three, but there is no doubt that their partnership is just as important. They are two of the members of the Notre Dame/Saint Mary’s Equestrian Club and for them, cooperation is the key to their relationship. “It really is a partnership sport,” senior Jen Toland said. “Horses are a lot smarter than people give them credit for.” The success of a rider in this sport relies on the relationship with the horse. Learning to form this relation­ ship takes experience and dedication, two virtues that the thirty-two mem­ bers of the ND/SMC Equestrian Club claim. The season for the club runs throughout the academic year and consists of as many as ten competi­ tions against various members of the Intercollegiate Horse Show Association. The competition is on both an indi­ vidual and a team basis, with the focus more often falling on the team. For the Irish, this forms one of the most important points of the team’s success. “The best part about it is the com­ panionship,” senior Susan Galanthay commented. “The bond not only Jody Duff, senior and fourth year member of the ND/SMC Equestrian team gets ready to bridle her horse, Mi key, develops with the horses, but also with at the Kensington Riding Center in South Bend.

Horses are like humans. You have to be able to tell when they are having a bad day.” The II1SA is made up of over a hun­ dred teams which are divided into five zones and nine regions throughout the country. Each region contains around five states, such as the Midwest region in which the Irish compete. When the regular season ends, the road to fame runs through regional, zone, and then finally national compe­ tition which commences in May Great tandems are known by their championships. Maybe this May, Jen and Bozo w ill join this select group of champions.
