Butte High track athletes Jaeger Hansen and Peyton Trabert are this week’s Leskovar Honda Athletes of the Week.

The honors come after the Bulldogs impressed during the Class AA State meet in Kalispell.

Hansen, a sophomore, receives the boys’ honor after placing second in the javelin at Legends Stadium with a personal-best throw of 172 feet, 1 inch.

That came one week after Hansen broke his previous record by 17 feet to qualify for State with a fourth-place throw of 163-9 at the Western AA Divisional meet in Butte.

Hansen, who ran the 100- and 200-meter races for the Bulldogs during the regular season, also lettered in football and wrestling for the Bulldogs during the 2024-25 school year.

Trabert, a senior, takes home the girls’ accolade after placing seventh at State in the pole vault. Three days after receiving the Mariah’s Challenge Scholarship, Trabert matched her personal best by clearing 9 feet, 6 inches. That capped a solid senior campaign that also saw Trabert compete in the 100-meter dash for the Bulldogs.

In the fall, Trabert contributed as an outside hitter for the Butte High volleyball team.

For the third year, Leskovar Honda, home of the 20-year, 200,000-mile warranty, is teaming up with the ButteCast to honor the finest student-athletes from the Mining City to encourage more children to get up, get out and try all kinds of sports and activities.
