Things just got more memorable recently when the Louisiana Sports Writers Association released its All-State track and field team. There were four of Ascension Parish's top track stars on the list.
The 2017 season saw some marvelous performances by the parishs top track and field stars and their teams.
From multiple individual standouts taking home state titles, to the Ascension Catholic girls team claiming their third straight state championship, it was surely a year to remember.
Things just got more memorable recently when the Louisiana Sports Writers Association released its All-State track and field team. There were four of Ascension Parishs top track stars on the list.
Headlining the boys All-State team was Dutchtowns Parker McBride. McBride made the All-State team for the 800 event.
He had the fastest time in the state this season for the 800 with a time of one minute and 52.68 seconds.
McBride won district, regional and state titles in the 800 this season. He was also a member of the Baton Rouge areas All-Metro team.
McBride is a Southeastern Louisiana signee.
Just last month, he made the trip to Greensboro, N.C., to compete in the New Balance Nationals Outdoor event.
The Griffins finished as runners-up in District 5-5A this season, and they finished fifth at the regional meet.
The only other Ascension Parish boys track star to make the All-State team was Donaldsonvilles Davon Wright. Wright made the team in the shot put event.
Wright helped lead theTigers to a seventh-place finish at the District 6-3A meet and a 14th-place finish at the state meet.
He had the fifth-best performance in the shot put this season with a measurement of 53 feet and 6.5 inches.
After winning the state title in the event last year, Wright won a district championship in the shot put this season and finished as runner-up at both the regional and state meets.
He also made the All-Metro team. Wright is a recent Tulane football commit.
The Lady Griffins finished third at the District 5-5A meet, and they landed in seventh at the state meet.
Spearheading their efforts were Leah Scott and Tara Stuntz.
Scott made the All-State team for the second straight season in the long jump event and the triple jump.
She had the best long jump in the state this year with a measurement of 19 feet and six inches. Her triple jump was tied for fourth-best at 37 feet and 11 inches.
Scott won district and regional titles in both events. At the state meet, she won the triple jump championship for the second straight season and finished as runner-up in the long jump.
Stuntz made the All-State team for the 3,200 event. She had the third-fastest time in the 3,200 this year at 11 minutes and 23.81 seconds.
Stuntz was runner-up in the event at the district, regional and state meets.
Both Scott and Stuntz made the All-Metro team as well.
Stuntz is a 2017 Southeastern signee, along with two other parish runners in Ascension Catholics 1A 800, 1,600 and 3,200 state champion Sophie Daigle and the Bulldogs Logan Thibodeaux.
