College of Charleston announced on March 30 that three members of its equestrian team have qualified for the Intercollegiate Horse Shows Association (IHSA) Nationals after competing at the IHSA Zones.
The advancement is significant for the team, as it highlights individual achievements and brings recognition to the program. The IHSA Nationals are scheduled to take place from May 3 to May 5 in Tryon, North Carolina.
