ATHENS, Ga. – The University of Georgia equestrian team seeks to win its fourth Southeastern Conference title this weekend as the Bulldogs head to the 2023 SEC Championship, March 24-25. The two-day meet is being held in Blythewood, South Carolina at One Wood Farm.

The Bulldog Flat squad has scored the top eight scores among all SEC riders this season. Junior Sophia Pilla scored a 99 in Flat against South Carolina which is the highest score among all SEC riders this season, tying the best score in program history. She's only the third Bulldog to achieve the near-perfect mark and the first since 2019. Senior Ceci Bresch received a Flat score of 97 twice in the same day against South Carolina and Sweet Briar.
