President: Cassidy Zirko

Cassidy joined the team in her first year at UM and moved to Missoula from Seattle, Washington. She is studying both chemistry and anthropology in hopes of working in forensics. Since Cassidy was six she has been taking lessons and riding in local 4-H competitions which include local fairs. Showing has been a large part of Cassidy's life, what she enjoys most is training the horses she shows and seeing the progress her horses make. Cassidy has both experience in English and Western showing.
