Former Hamlin standout and current University of Florida thrower Gracelyn Leiseth is among 1,500 athletes from 130 nations competing in the U20 World Championships in Peru this weekend. The event is for athletes age 19 and under.

Leiseth is competing in both the shot put and discus events. The current sophomore qualified for the NCAA Division I National Outdoor Meet last spring and was a second-team All-American selection.
