Notre Dame QB Riley Leonard wins Air It Out at Manning Passing Academy
One of the top quarterback camps in the country is the Manning Passing Academy, where they annually bring in some of the best collegiate quarterbacks as counselors. Notre Dame quarterback Riley Leonard was invited to the prestigious camp, and it’s not just mentoring high school prospects, the college players take part in competitions as well. The Irish starter battled against Oregon’s Dillon Gabriel and Texas A&M’s Connor Weigman. Leonard came out victorious in the accuracy competition, earning him the title of Air It Out champion. This is a great sign for Notre Dame fans, especially considering the starter had to sit out most of the spring with an ankle injury.
