LELEAN Memorial School has stamped its authority early at the Coca-Cola Triple N Zone Athletics meet on day one at the HFC Bank Stadium in Suva yesterday.

The school’s dominance was highlighted in the prestigious blue-ribbon events, where both its girls and boys sprinters rose to the occasion.

Seini Irene Leweniqila powered her way on the track to claim the girl’s blue-ribbon title.

Speaking after her win, Leweniqila acknowledged the support behind her journey.

“I thank the Lord, my family and everyone who supported me,” she said.

Not to be outdone, Aporosa Rabula delivered an equally impressive performance in the boys category and dedicated the win to his late father who passed away last year.

“I wish my dad was here to witness this win because he always reminded me to at least get a medal in the zone meet, so this win is for him,” Rabula shared.

The zone meet ends today.
