Ivy League Championships
The Ivy League Championship horse show is held in April every year, just after the completion of zone finals. The teams that compete in this show are Brown University, Columbia University, Cornell University, Dartmouth College, Harvard University, Princeton University, University of Pennsylvania, and Yale University. The horse show is run similarly to a regular intercollegiate horse show. The only difference is that a championship ride off is held after each division between the winners of each class in the division to determine the Ivy League Champion. The most recent Ivy League Championship was held at Dartmouth Equestrian Center on April 17, 2010. The 2010 winner was the Dartmouth team. Previous winners of the Ivy League Championship include Cornell (2009), Brown (2008), and Dartmouth (2007).

Famous quotes containing the words ivy and/or league:
“When the ivy has found its tower, when the delicate creeper has found its strong wall, we know how the parasite plants grow and prosper.”
—Anthony Trollope (1815–1882)
“He will deliver you from six troubles; in seven no harm shall touch you. In famine he will redeem you from death, and in war from the power of the sword. You shall be hidden from the scourge of the tongue, and shall not fear destruction when it comes. At destruction and famine you shall laugh, and shall not fear the wild animals of the earth. For you shall be in league with the stones of the field, and the wild animals shall be at peace with you.”
—Bible: Hebrew, Job 5:19-23.
