Hey, big city folks, Jacob Smith is fast.

The Coupeville High School junior stared down a field packed with 2A and 3A runners Saturday at the 7th annual Lil’ Norway Invitational in Poulsbo and left them choking on his exhaust.

Beating 29 other runners, he zipped to a win in the 100, then came within .37 of a second of adding a victory in the 200.

Smith’s rapid runs (his 4 x 100 relay team also claimed 2nd) and a 2nd in the triple jump by Mitchell Carroll propelled the Wolf boys to a 4th place finish (out of 19 teams), the best showing by a 1A school.

The Coupeville girls, led by second-place finishes in the 100 hurdles (Lindsey Roberts) and 4 x 100 relay, finished 7th.

Like the boys team, the girls had the best showing of any of the six 1A schools in attendance at North Kitsap High School.

The meet also drew one 3A school, eight 2A schools and four B schools.

North Kitsap won the boys team title, while Port Angeles topped the girls race. Both are 2A schools.

Coupeville’s tent wasn’t as full as normal, as each school was limited to two athletes (and one relay team) per event.
