Liberty High School’s Sidney Sisil signed her National Letter of Intent to Fresno State University last spring for a sport that is not competed at the high school level — equestrian.
In fact, Sisil said that there are only about 13 other Div. I colleges competing in equestrian. So, to be recruited by Fresno State, which is one of the top equestrian schools in the country carries a sense of pride.
“Fresno State has been in the top 10 for a long time,” she said. “It’s definitely been a goal since I was young to earn an athletic scholarship. I knew of their riding program. I’ve always been a Fresno state fan. To be able to hit my goal, it was a, ‘You made it,’ moment.”
