Can’t touch ’em.
With spring break sweeping the land this week, Coupeville High School track and field athletes didn’t compete.
Turns out they didn’t need to, as no one bumped the nine Wolves currently in the Top 10 for 1A even a single slot.
Not that there wasn’t movement in the rankings.
Andrea Markezich of Bear Creek (3200), Grace Patterson of Northwest (300 Hurdles), and Samuel Van Peursem of Cedar Park Christian (discus) all jumped to the #1 slot in their event Saturday.
But no one came for the idle Wolves, who continue to top two events (men’s 100 and 400), while appearing in the Top 10 in eight more.
After a quiet week, Coupeville gets a chance to get back at it in the coming days.
The Wolves have a home meet Thursday, with North Sound Conference foes King’s and Cedar Park coming to Whidbey, then hit the road Saturday to attend the Lil’ Norway Invitational.
As they prep for a return to competition, a look at the athletes who currently sit among the state’s best:
