The St. Ignatius boys’ track and field team turned in an impressive all-around performance at the District 7B Meet on Friday, May 9, with top-three finishes across sprints, distance, throws, and jumps — a strong showing as the Bulldogs gear up for the divisional and state rounds.
Leading the charge was senior Harlon Leishman, who claimed gold in the 3200 meters with a time of 10:37.50 and took second in the 1600 meters at 4:37.98, in what proved to be a fast and competitive distance field. Leishman also anchored the 4x400 relay team to a fourth-place finish, showcasing his endurance and leadership across multiple events.
Joining Leishman in the long-distance ranks was Brooklyn Leishman, who made her own statement in the girls’ division, taking second in the 800 meters (2:50.92) and fifth in the 1600 meters (6:38.78), putting the Leishman name on both sides of the competition.
