Golden Wolves Take 5th at Delaware Valley Show

Doylestown, Pa. (March 12, 2026) - Alvernia University Women's Equestrian took fifth place honors at the Delaware Valley show Sunday afternoon at the Delaware Valley Equestrian Center. 

Alvernia and Rutgers were tied at 19 points at the conclusion of the show and had to go to a tiebreaker to decide the final places. The Golden Wolves ended up earning a fifth place ribbon after the tie was broken. 

Alvernia's Emma Philiposian led the way with a first place finish in Open Flat. Philiposian is also just two points away in the Open Flat discipline from qualifying for the Regional Finals later this month and needs at least a fifth place finish to earn her spot in the Regional Finals. 

Nya Barry also is on the brink of qualifying for the Regional Finals and needs at least a sixth place finish in Intermediate Flat and a second place finish in Intermediate Fences to qualify for both. 

Philiposian recorded a first place finish in Open Flat on Bach to earn seven points and also placed fifth in Open Fences on Back to earn two points. 

Emma Hackett tallied a third place finish in Open Flat on Alvernia's Count to earn four points and followed that up with a sixth place finish in Intermediate Fences on Alvernia's Jazz, All that Jazz to grab a point. 

Danielle Reich also posted a third place finish in Novice Flat on Aspy and Isabella Jermyn took fourth on Axle in Limit Flat and sixth in Limit Fences on Hank. 

Emmerson Bartley also recorded a fourth place finish on Breeze in Limit Flat to earn three points. 

Nya Barry tallied a fifth place finish in Intermediate Fences on Sir to earn two points and also took sixth in Intermediate Flat on Sir to earn one point and pull within a point of Regional Finals qualification. 

Evelyn Gombar recorded a sixth place finish in Limit Flat on Axle to earn a point and Nicole Alvarado rounded out the Golden Wolves with a seventh place finish on Poppy in Intermediate Flat. 

The Golden Wolves are back in action on Saturday when they head to Brookside Stables for the Regional Effort Show in Ringoes, N.J. and look to book their spots in the Regional Finals.
