Success is in their DNA.
An astonishing 17 of the 20 Coupeville Middle School track and field athletes who competed Tuesday set at least one PR.
Part of the success might have stemmed from the Wolves being able to run and throw at a facility they are well acquainted with, cause it’s their own.
The lone home meet of the CMS season, it featured Coupeville facing off with Chimacum and Blue Heron (Port Townsend) and was held under rare sunny skies.
While all of the Wolves had strong days, Bella Velasco and Ja’Kenya Hoskins led the way, both nabbing PRs in all four of their events.
Coupeville has one regular season meet left on the schedule — a trip to Sequim May 16 — then wraps the year with the league championships at Forks May 24.
