The Milbank Area boys and Mobridge-Pollock girls both had relay squads move up the Class A track and field leaderboards this past week thanks to stellar performances at the Howard Wood Dakota Relays last weekend and the Capital City Qualifier earlier this week.

The Milbank Area Sprint Medley relay and 3,200-meter relay squads both inched ahead in the leaders. Both teams went from fourth to second this week.

Meanwhile, Mobridge-Pollock did not have a relay team among the leaders last week and now has three of them. The Tigers are currently seventh in the 800 and 1,600 relays, and eighth in the 3,200 relay.

Hamlin’s Gracelyn Leiseth continues to lead the girls’ shot put and discus, while Aberdeen Roncalli’s Jayden Munroe is first in the boys’ long jump and second in the triple jump.

Kami Wadsworth of Hamlin is first in the javelin, and second in both the shot put and discus.
