MileSplit Ohio had an opportunity to speak with Molly's head coach from McComb High School, Jen Beckman. Coach Beckman said the following regarding Molly:
"Molly is one of the most coachable athletes that I've ever had. She never settles and she constantly strives for improvement. She's an amazing athlete, but she's an even more amazing person. She inspires the athletes on our team to be their best."
Molly, who will compete for Purdue University in Indiana next year, receives throwing specific coaching from her dad, Jay Leppelmeier, and she comes from a family of throwers as her sisters, Jackie Leppelmeier (2011) and Becca Leppelmeier (2013) were both highly ranked state athletes.
Congratulations Molly Leppelmeier!
