At Saturday’s Riverside-Brookfield Bulldog Relays, Niles West won the girls division with 76 points while Leyden (18) took eighth and St. Joseph (15) was ninth.

“I think I did really well since this was my first time doing the triple jump,” Hollingshed said. “I was really happy with how I did. I was just hoping for the best and it worked out.”
Elmwood Park was led by Ruth Langkamp, who won the pole vault by clearing 8-0. Freshman Diana Czerwiec was fourth in the 100 (13.20).
Leyden’s 400 relay was second (52.80) and junior Stephanie Dominquez was fourth in the 300 hurdles (50.12) for the Eagles’ top individual performance.
