How fast is Makana Stone? Fast enough this is the only photo we’ve been able to get of her. (John Fisken photo)
I would hazard to say this is unprecedented locally.
With four more wins Thursday, Coupeville freshman Makana Stone improved to an astounding 14-0 as a high school track runner.
The scary thing? She’s getting faster.
Running against competition from Archbishop Thomas Murphy, South Whidbey and host Granite Falls, Stone blitzed all comers in the 100, 200 and 400 — setting PR’s in the first two events — then ran a leg on a triumphant 4 x 100 relay squad.
Lifted by Stone and superb senior Madison Tisa McPhee, who swept both hurdles events and joined Stone, Marisa Etzell and Sylvia Hurlburt on the relay unit, the Wolf girls toppled a very strong South Whidbey squad, finishing second in the team standings.
While the Wolves simply don’t have the raw numbers to tangle with 2A power ATM in team results, knocking off their 1A arch-rivals is huge. Falcons may fly, but they didn’t run very fast Thursday.
On the boys side, the lone win on the afternoon came in the discus, where Nick Streubel topped the field.
