Leiker placed sixth in the 400m dash with a time of 1:00.74 and seventh in the 100m dash with a time of 12.81. Leiker was one of several Ellsworth athletes to compete in Wichita for two hot, humid days.

Two — Remington Cravens and Darrell Gustin — came home with first place gold medals. Ellsworth also was represented by sophomore Laykin Tenbrink, who placed ninth in girls’ Class 3A high jump with a leap of 5-02.
