06/13/2012 - Team Biostar rider, Will Coleman, announces his Olympic news:
Twizzel and I have been named to the USEF Eventing Short List for the 2012 Olympic Games. It has been a long adventure for us - and this is the culmination of years of hard work and preparation.
We had a great spring, culminating in a fifth place effort at the 2012 Rolex Kentucky CCI4* and then we competed in a combined test at the Bromont CIC - contesting only the dressage and show jumping. Those performances gave the USEF selectors the confidence to name us to the Short List of 11 horse and rider combinations.The shortlisted combinations will fly to England on June 18th to prepare for the Mandatory Outing at the Barbury Castle International Horse Trials (June 27 - July 1). The final team will be named following that competition.
This opportunity truly wouldn't be possible without the support of Jim Wildasin and all of my owners, staff, sponsors, friends and family. Thank you to everyone who has supported me throughout the years. Getting on the Short List is a significant step in my end goal of the Olympics. I am excited and honored to have been given this golden opportunity. We hope to make you all proud over the next two months.
Sincerely Yours,
Will
