We are incredibly proud to share that Alyssa Logan, a dedicated TQHA member, has been selected for Cowgirl Magazine’s 30 Under 30 Class of 2025!
Alyssa is a scientist, educator, coach, and accomplished equestrian who is making a major impact in both the academic and equine worlds. She currently serves as an Assistant Professor and Horse Judging Team Coach in the Horse Science Program at Middle Tennessee State University (MTSU). In this role, she teaches undergraduate courses, advises graduate students, conducts meaningful research, and coaches the next generation of horse industry leaders.
Her passion lies in bridging academia with the equine industry. With a research focus on exercise training methods that promote healthy performance horses, Alyssa’s work is helping shape more sustainable, thoughtful approaches to horsemanship. She emphasizes hands-on, engaging learning in her classes—an approach that stems from her own roots in 4-H and NRHA competition in southeastern Michigan.
In addition to her academic accomplishments, Alyssa is an AQHA and NRHA judge, and she remains active in the show ring, competing in ranch and reining events.
Please join TQHA in congratulating Alyssa on this outstanding recognition of her hard work, talent, and contributions to the equine community.
