IS Team: Houston Polo Club IC Team: Texas A&M University Year in School: Junior Major: Petroleum Engineering What I/I means to you: To me, being in I/I means playing the sport I love with people my age who feel the same way. It has always been a dream to play intercollegiate for Texas A&M ever since I first started practicing against them back in interscholastics. Now, with the help of this scholarship, this dream has come true. Thank you to the USPA for this incredible opportunity.
IS Team: Garrison Forest School, Maryland Polo Club IC Team: Texas A&M University Year in School: Sophomore Major: Animal Science What I/I means to you: I began I/I polo at a very early age and I wouldn’t trade my experience for anything in the world. There are three major elements that make the I/I program exceptional to me. First, I/I has given me not only a national family, but a global one. Second, it has also given me the tools to become a better horsewoman. And finally, it has given me the exposure to different professions that are involved in polo and has pushed me to pursue a career as a large animal vet. These three elements combined have shaped me into the person I am today.
