🔼 Her Story, Her Words. Auburn equestrian’s “Going Pro” will feature alums throughout the school year, showcasing many past Tigers now finding success away from Auburn—and this week we're showcasing Maddie Spak!

The Horsemanship rider earned two degrees from Auburn over four years and has been a part of the professional working world for a year. Enrolled as a full-time student last year, she also worked a full-time job as she pursued her master's degree.

In competition, she had an outstanding senior season in 2022-23 when she was named the SEC Horsemanship Rider of the Year and was a first-team NCEA All-American in the event.
