It’s like the Wild West out here, or at least the version depicted in films.
There’s always another gunfighter coming around the corner, looking to make a name for themselves by plugging you in the back.
Take a week off from competition, like the Coupeville High School track and field team just did, and it’s likely your numbers, no matter how good they are, will slip a bit.
Take a look at the Top 10 list for 2B schools and that’s what you’ll see, as the Wolves only held on to two slots from a week ago.
Carolyn Lhamon is still 3rd in the shot put and Alex Murdy remains 2nd best in the long jump.
Every other Coupeville athlete on the list took a hit, including Lyla Stuurmans (400) and the boys 4 x 100 relay team being temporarily nudged out of the top spot by active athletes.
But there’s good news.
The Wolves get back at it this week, with a home meet Wednesday and a trip to Snohomish Saturday, giving Whidbey’s gunslingers two chances to return fire.
