Avalon ’28 Places at Massachusetts Jumper Finals
Equestrian enthusiast Avalon ’28 recently placed 11th overall at the Massachusetts Jumper (MHJ) Children’s Medal Finals.
The accomplishment follows an intense summer show schedule that featured more than 3,000 riders competing across Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, and Vermont. Out of thousands of contenders vying for a spot throughout the season, only 22 riders qualified for the prestigious Children's Medal final. After putting forward a strong initial ride, Avalon earned a callback to test in the final round, ultimately securing 11th place in the region.
“This is a huge accomplishment for me, as I have been working to qualify for two years,” Avalon shares.
Congratulations to Avalon on a remarkable season and an extraordinary finish!
