Olympic League 1A Subdistricts
BREMERTON — Koby Weidner and Eileen Leoso highlight Port Townsend’s West Central District qualifiers.
Weidner was chose as the Olympic League 1A Subdistrict Track Athlete of the Meet, and Leoso earned the Field Athlete of the Meet.
Both were double winners at Bremerton High School on Saturday. Weidner took first in the 100-meter dash (11.27 seconds) and the 200 (23.07 seconds).
Leoso won the 100 (13.17 seconds) and the triple jump (33 feet, 6 inches). The freshman also placed second in the high jump.
The top three placers in each event advance to the West Central District Championship, this Friday and Saturday, also at Bremerton High School.
Seren Dances qualified for districts in four events for the Port Townsend boys: the 100, the 200, long jump and triple jump (though, according to Port Townsend coach Ian Fraser, Dances has declined to compete in the triple jump at districts).
Dances won the long jump and placed third in the other three events.
The Port Townsend boys had two other subdistrict champions: Jake Vande Griend in the 1,600 (5:02.68) and the 4×400 relay team of Kyle Blankenship, River Yearian, Alex Brown and Weidner (3:44.55).
Chimacum’s Sam Golden won the 110 hurdles with a time of 16.33 seconds.
Chris Sevilla won the javelin (141-02) title for the Cowboys, and Matt Torres took first in the high jump (5-02).
Ryan Caldwell, Jadyn Roberts, Eoin Hartnett and Domenick Zack added a win in the 4×100 relay for Chimacum, finishing in 45.86 seconds.
Klahowya won the boys team title. Coupeville was second, Port Townsend third and Chimacum fourth.
The Port Townsend girls also finished third, but were only a point behind Klahowya and Coupeville, who share the title. The Chimacum girls were fourth.
Aubry Botkin joins fellow Redhawks freshman Leoso as a double winner, taking first in the 100 hurdles (15.21 seconds) and the 300 hurdles.
Frasher said Botkin’s time in the 100 hurdles is a new Port Townsend record, surpassing Jawea Harder’s 1998 mark of 15.34 seconds (hand time conversion).
“Aubry Botkin came in to the meet with a sore knee after a PE accident in school on Friday, but came out with a new school record in the 100 hurdles,” Fraser said.
“She’s taken over two-and-a-half seconds off of her sprint hurdles time over the course of the season.”
The Redhawks’ other champions were Sara Wines in the high jump (4-04) and Shenoa Snyder in the shot put (97-02).
Bailey Castillo was the Chimacum girls’ only winner, taking first in the javelin with a throw of 97-08.
