Auburn Elvis’ 2022 College Equestrian Loaded Lineup

Auburn Elvis picks riders from the 2021-22 college equestrian season to make the most loaded lineup possible.

The end of the college equestrian regular season brings the usual basket of All-Conference and All-American awards, but have you ever wondered what THE ultimate equestrian lineup would look like?

Fortunately, I have the answer: Auburn Elvis’ 2022 College Equestrian Loaded Lineup.
