At the game, she jumped over a course of fences with her horse, Fatum. She has been an avid horse lover since she was a young child.
"I was six when I first fell in love and it was with a pony named 4x4. Having horseback riding as an outlet was super important because it allowed me to have another life and outlet outside of work and school," Mary-Kate said in her HITS rider profile.
“Riding allows me to practice being accepting, patient, disciplined, compassionate, competitive, and all of those other emotions that are very important to have in your everyday life,” she continued. “Horses teach you a lot about yourself.”
