Nov. 9, 2016 – West Bend, WI – Not only is West Bend West High School senior Anthony Schlass a great baseball player, he is also a fantastic writer. Check out his story about West junior Katelyn Schultz and her equestrian aspirations.

 

Katelyn Schultz is not your prototypical student-athlete, but she recently accomplished one of her greatest feats.

Schultz, a West junior, competes in horse competitions and this year she went to Nationals, the largest single breed show in the world, and her horse won.

“It’s something I never thought would happen because it’s really expensive, but my parents support me so much. I was so shocked. You never think you’re going to be the one to win,” Schultz said.

Even with all of her success, Katelyn does have an everyday obstacle: She was born without depth perception, making sports like volleyball and basketball difficult to play.
