Like humans, horses have a ‘thermoneutral zone’ (TNZ) – an optimal range of temperatures within which they can comfortably maintain their own body temperature. For adult horses in mild climates, this is between 5ºC and 25ºC. Humans, on the other hand, have a more limited TNZ of between 25ºC – 30ºC when naked. This means when humans feel cold, horses are still well within their comfortable zone.

Weisinger had only planned to carry about 15 riders on the roster, but ended up taking 17 from tryouts and adding two transfers later. While a majority of the student-athletes had experience in showing, none had previously done the NCEA format. In addition, Weisinger was able to get 12 total horses via donations and leases that are being kept at the school’s on-campus equestrian center.
