Brennan Caila Lyons placed second in Women’s 800 Meter 6A on Saturday, April 29, 2023 at Toyota Field.A day after collapsing on the Heroes Stadium track, Boerne Champion freshman Elizabeth Leachman recovered and won the girls Region IV-5A 1,600-meter run by a 12-second margin Saturday.
Leachman entered the competition with a 3,200 qualifying time of 10:17.81 from the area championships, which is believed to be the second-fastest time in Texas history for a freshman. She had hopes for a similar performance at regionals. “I knew I messed up,” Leachman said. “I was shaken up by it because that’s my favorite race, so it was hard,” Leachman said. “It was pretty heartbreaking.”
Reagan junior Isabella Dagrosa swept the girls 6A hurdles and ran the lead leg in the winning Rattlers’ 1,600 relay. Jones teamed with Jacquelyn Rolle, Favour Uduji and Jatorie Mobley in the 800 relay and set a meet record in Friday’s preliminaries. Dagrosa had a fight to keep ahead in the 300 hurdles. She clocked 42.18, which was .04 off former teammate Taylen Wise’s meet record set last year. Dripping Springs senior Sophia Farris finished in 42.19.“I was honestly very surprised because at first, I didn’t think I had any competition,” Dagrosa said. “I always love competition, and I was very happy to have push me because without her, I definitely would not gotten close to beating this record.
