Champions Crowned at the North American Young Riders’ Championships Presented by State Line Tack

Old Mill Creek, IL – August 11, 2002

In a nailbiting fight to the finish, Cayce Harrison of US Zone 5 won the individual gold medal in the Show Jumping Championship with the only double clear rounds of the day for an overall score of 10.81 faults. Going last and with not even a time fault in hand, Harrison was extremely nervous. “I was so nervous,” said Harrison. “I never had been in that position before, knowing that I had to go clean to win. I knew my horse could do it because he is amazing.”

The silver medal went to Andrew Ramsay and Lisa of US Zone 10. Ramsay went clear in the second round, but had eight costly faults in the first that put him in second with an overall score of 11.26 faults. The bronze medal was won by Catherine Boettcher and Cordelia B, also of Zone 10, with a final score of 17.25 faults.
