And so it begins.
A brand new middle school track season officially kicked off Wednesday, as Coupeville hopped over to Port Townsend for a three-team meet.
Bringing 42 athletes, the Wolves outnumbered their hosts from Blue Heron Middle School, who had 26, but fell way short of Stevens.
A large school that funnels students to 2A high school Port Angeles, Stevens had a whopping 119 athletes on site.
Even so, Coupeville dominated the day.
“We undoubtedly won the meet,” said CMS coach Bob Martin. “Our athletes swept many of the events; they’ve put in the work and it showed!”
With so many athletes involved, Martin and co-coach Elizabeth Bitting did extraordinary work keeping track of Coupeville’s stats.
Keep in mind, it’s the first meet, everything was topsy-turvy and a good chunk of these athletes are new to Coupeville Sports and try not to go bonkers if I flip some numbers or names here.

There was a lot of confusion with record-keeping. First day, new site, 119 kids from Stevens. I’ll tweak that, though. Thanks for the update.
