Sharon sophomore Leo Tran has been selected as the HockomockSports.com Player of the Week, presented by Morse Insurance, for Jan. 27 through Feb. 1. Tran is the 21st athlete chosen as Player of the Week for the 2024-25 school year and seventh in the winter season.
Coming off a terrific freshman season, Tran has impressed in his second varsity campaign and he closed out the regular season with two individual titles and a new meet record at the annual Hockomock Boys Swim Championships held on Friday evening at Milford High. Tran also placed in two relays, as the Eagles took third overall behind winners Milford and second place Franklin.
“Leo had a tremendous meet,” said Sharon head coach Sara Barbera. “He broke an 8-year Hock meet record in the 200 free, and came very close to breaking a 12-year-old 100 free record. Fortunately, Leo is only a sophomore so has a lot of runway ahead of him. It will be fun seeing what he can do at sectionals and states!”
Tran got the meet started by swimming the second leg of the 200-yard medley relay along with Brac Buffa, Justin Hsu, and Tay Luo. The Eagles finished second with a time of 1:49.76. In the 200-yard free, Tran raced to the win with a new meet record time of 1:44.88, which was almost four seconds faster than his nearest competitor. He added another title in the 100 free, finishing in a time of 48.66, which was more than three seconds faster than the second place swimmer. Tran wrapped up a busy day by anchoring the 400 free relay (along with Buffa, Luo, and Alex Ng). The Eagles took third in a time of 3:33.70.
