NEW ORLEANS, La. – For the second season in a row, Castleton University's Harrison Leombruno-Nicholson was named to the United States Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA) All-Region team for the javelin.
 
Leombruno-Nicholson continued his stellar throwing career for the Spartans in 2023, setting a new program record with a 60.42m javelin throw at this year's Little East Conference Championship. The mark was enough to earn him the LEC title in the event, and was good for 17th nationally. The top 22 qualifiers in each event receive an invitation to the NCAA Division III National Championships, but due to a late-season injury, Leombruno-Nicholson was unable to declare for the event despite his end-of-season ranking.
 
The junior was also an All-Region honoree in the javelin in 2022, throwing a season-long 56.83m at the season-opening St. Lawrence Ice Breaker Open. He topped that mark on April 22, 2023, with a 57.03m throw at the Middlebury Outdoor Meet before shattering the mark with his record-setting throw of 60.42 at the LEC Championship on April 29.
 
Leombruno is the only Spartan man in program history to earn All-Region accolades in the javelin, and is one of only two athletes in program history to earn All-Region accolades for the outdoor season. Trever Rose was named All-Region in the shot put and the discus in 2022.
