As a veterinarian, I has seen firsthand how the human–animal bond can both teach and connect people. I am passionate about supporting programs that bring meaningful resources to underserved communities while celebrating the joy and companionship that animals, such as the amazing polo ponies, bring to our lives and communities."

 

Page Drucker

 

Secretary

"I am an alumni, current player and parent of a player. I first started with the Aggie polo club in 1999 as a team player my freshman year at UCD. This club gave me a a sense of community along with epic horse and polo experiences throughout my college years and beyond. I am driven to keep this community strong and make sure that others also have the opportunity to learn this amazing team sport. I am sure that I can speak for many of us when I say I would never have learned to love and play polo without this club!"

Sam Maher

 

Member at Large

"I’ve been involved with the Aggie Polo Club since 2024 as both an instructor and club member. As a former collegiate player at the University of Texas, I strongly believe in the transformative power of college polo programs. One of the things I value most about Aggie Polo is its commitment to opening polo to students and community members who might not otherwise have access to it. The club creates opportunities for people to build skills, confidence, and lasting connections that extend well beyond the field. As a board member, my priority is supporting a welcoming club that sustains a strong lesson program while also fostering a competitive team environment for players who want to advance in the sport."
