There are three titles at stake each year: the Overall Team Championship, the Hunt Seat Team The Varsity Equestrian Steering Committee is working diligently to advance Championship, and the Western Team Championship. equestrian from emerging to full championship status. The horse industry stands firmly behind the sport and is working hand-in-hand to lay a solid foundation on which the sport can continue to grow and expand.

In hunt seat equitation and horsemanship events, it is the rider and not the horse that is being judged. The actions of the horse are important only as they reflect on the horsemanship of the rider. Thus it is possible for a rider whose horse “acts up” to be placed among the winners because in the judges’ opinion she met the problem skillfully and solved it. Conversely, a seemingly good ride may mean nothing more than a placed horse carrying an unwitting passenger. The rider is always being judged in horsemanship classes, whether the class calls for jumping or whether it is run “on the flat” without jumps.

Judging equitation classes is not done by a mathematical formula. Judges are usually looking for style of riding, accuracy and judgment in the use of the aids (hands, seat and legs), suppleness and lightness of hands and a general impression of complete, quiet control. The program description of equitation classes makes reference to tests for riders in the different classes. This refers to the test of horsemanship that has been established by the American Horse Shows Association for all recognized shows and is published in the annual rulebook. Equitation judges must choose from these individual tests in judging horsemanship. The com- mon criteria are:

Posture: The position of the body, the legs, the hands, the head and eyes are all indicators of good horsemanship. The rider’s back should be straight, chest out, head and eyes ahead in an alert, relaxed position. The appearance of the rider should give the impression of alert buoyancy. The movements of her body should be those that derive naturally from the horse’s movements. Correct posture at all gaits and in all movements is a basic element that judges look for in horsemanship.

Hands: A rider’s hands should keep a light but certain contact with the mouth of the horse. Reins should be on a straight line from the horse’s mouth to the rider’s elbow.

Wrong lead: In a canter, the horse leading with the wrong leg is “on the wrong lead”. Moving clockwise a horse should be leading with his right front leg. Mov- ing counterclockwise, he should lead with the left.

Legs: Heels should be down. No excessive weight should be carried on the stirrup irons. Legs should be quiet under the rider at all times.

Diagonals: This fault may appear while a rider is posting (rising and sinking back in the saddle in rhythm with the horse’s trot) at the trot. The rider’s movement in posting should be impelled by the forward movement of the horse’s inside rear leg; that is, the rear leg that is closest to the center of the ring.

In many ways, Pickens is a record-setting philanthro- pist. His $165 million gift to his alma mater, Oklahoma State University, in 2005 is the single largest gift for athletics in NCAA history, and the $7 million donation to the American Red Cross in 2005 is the largest individual contribution in the 150-year history of that organization. His unprecedented giving to athletics has triggered a renaissance in Oklahoma State University’s football program and was a key factor in its first Big 12 championship in 2011 and its first BCS Bowl win in the Fiesta Bowl matchup with Stanford in 2012. On May 21, 2008, Pickens gave $100 million for the endowment of major faculty chairs and professorships at Oklahoma State University. The OSU School of Geology already bears his name from previous gifts to OSU. Over the years, Pickens has donated over $500 million to Oklahoma State, split virtually equally between athletics and academics.

The Big 12 is in its 23rd year in 2018-19 as it continues to promote the strength and success of one of the nation’s premier athletic conferences under the direction of seventh-year commissioner Bob Bowlsby.

TCU and West Virginia joined the league on July 1, 2012 and became the Big 12’s first additions since inception, joining Baylor, Iowa State, Kansas, Kansas State, Okla- homa, Oklahoma State, Texas and Texas Tech.

With 10 members, the Big 12 remains as the only au- tonomy conference to determine its champions in all sports directly on the field of play with a full round-robin schedule. The Conference’s hard work ethic and strong values have translated to enormous success in its first 22 years. Since it began competition in 1996-97, the league can boast of 60 NCAA team titles and 654 individual national championships.

BULLET The Oklahoma State University Cowboys have many symbols of their western heritage, but none is more appropriate than their mascot, Bullet. The Spirit Rider program debuted in 1984 with the first few Spirit Riders providing their own horse to serve as mascot for the OSU Cowboys.

However, in 1988, Stars Parr Money was donated to the OSU Athletic Department to be used specifically as the mascot. Since that time, Bullet has delighted crowds with his traditional sprint across the football field following every Cowboy touch- down. The heart of the Cowboy Spirit Rider Program, Bullet is not only seen at Boone Pickens Stadium and other OSU football games, he’s made appearances at local elementary schools, parades, rodeos and other special events, including the opening ceremonies of the Oklahoma State Special Olympics.

Bullet speeds onto the field The tradition of the Spirit Rider can be attributed to the late after each score. Eddy Finley, who wanted to promote school spirit the “cowboy way,” on horseback. Since that time, additional support has come for the Spirit Rider and Bullet, much of it due to Finley’s hard work. A horse trailer, custom-tooled saddle and uniform dress for the Spirit Rider and ground crew have been donated to OSU. In honor of the Spirit Rider and its tradition, Jim Ham- ilton sculpted the Spirit Rider bronze statue that sits next to the National Wrestling Hall of Fame in Stillwater.

Friday night’s “Walkaround” attracts thousands to campus for Homecoming.

Ask any Oklahoma State University graduate what OSU’s greatest tradition is, and you’ll hear one word - Homecoming.

The OSU Alumni Association has presented Homecoming at OSU since 1920 growing it from a small-town carnival to a nine-day, award-winning celebration. It is widely known as “America’s Greatest Homecoming Celebration” with its signa- ture event, Walkaround, which regularly draws more than 80,000 spectators to view elaborate Greek house decorations, parade floats and residence halls bathed in orange.

OSU’s Homecoming is entirely run by students - more than 250 on committees within the Alumni Association and thousands more in Greek, residential and campus life. Cowboys love our Homecoming tradition and are actively contributing to an endowment to secure its future existence and growth on our campus.

Homecoming is a driving force in the Stillwater community. In 2013, the Harvest Carnival event contributed 18,500 pounds of canned food donations to the local Harvest II food drive. Homecoming also highlights other OSU sports at Homecoming & Hoops where fans can preview the upcoming season’s squads for Cowboy and Cowgirl basketball in addition to enjoying a pep rally for Saturday’s football game.

From the Edmon Low Library’s orange fountain to Hester Street painted for coaches and players to view during “The Walk,” OSU and its alumni are proud to claim “America’s Greatest Homecoming Celebration.” Homecoming 2018: ‘Cow- boys Ride On’ is October 11-27 and will conclude with the Texas vs. OSU football game on Saturday, October 27.
