Our cross country runners are smarter than your cross country runners.
Coupeville High School’s female harriers qualified as a team for this Saturday’s state meet, and while the Wolves are in Pasco, they’ll receive an extra honor.
That’s because CHS girls’ cross country is an academic state champion, with its runners combining for the best GPA among all 2B schools participating in the sport.
The Wolf team, which includes Helen Strelow, Claire Mayne, Noelle Western, Reagan Callahan, and Erica and Cristine McGrath, compiled a 3.969 GPA.
Coupeville is coached by Paige Spangler.
The state champion honor is bestowed by the Washington Interscholastic Activities Association and Gesa Credit Union.
CHS will receive a plaque at the state meet, with runners each earning a special patch and medallion.
Other 2B schools honored for fall sports include Okanogan (boys’ cross country and girls’ soccer), Saint Georges (boys’ soccer), Liberty (football), and Asotin (volleyball).
