NEO A&M Horse Judging Team

NEO A&M Horse Judging Team NEO is known for producing one of the most competitive horse judging programs in the country. Scholarships are available to competitive participants.

The horse judging team is a co-curricular activity which provides students the opportunity to compete in national intercollegiate horse judging contests. The team travels to the Reichert Celebration, All American Quarter Horse Congress, American Quarter Horse Association World Show, and the National Reining Horse Futurity. The team is comprised of students who are interested in learning more about

horses, improving their speaking ability and their decision making skills. In just the past several years the team has been crowned champions in many of the contests they compete in.

Special thanks to NEO alumni Kelley Wainscott, Adam Wainscott, Dr. Cole, Don Recchiuti, Dave McDonald, John Pipkin, and everyone else who had a helping hand in making this year’s Congress contest a success!

The tradition continues….

Each year, our freshmen NEO Horse Judging Team looks forward to a special tradition — welcoming NEO alumna Alisen Anderson back to share her powerful “No Excuses” story.

Alisen’s message reminds us that success isn’t just about talent or opportunity — it’s about grit, perseverance, and choosing to rise above challenges. Her words set the tone for our team, inspiring us to push harder, stay focused, and lead with resilience. Every time she speaks, we’re reminded that it’s not about what happens to you, it’s about how you respond — no excuses, just hard work and heart. 💪💙💛

We are grateful for Alisen’s continued support and for being a shining example of what it means to carry the NEO spirit.
