If she was still in Coupeville, she’d be two inches off the school record.

Of course, Savina Wells, onetime Wolf supernova, now lives in Florida, where she’s a sophomore at Fernandina Beach High School.

So, while her current accomplishments have no impact on the CHS track and field record board, her high-flying exploits still reverberate with her Whidbey fan club.

Wells cleared the high jump bar at an even five feet Thursday, tying her PR, to win a title at the district meet, and advance to regionals.

The CHS all-time mark for girls, set by Yashmeen Knox in 1999, is 5-02.

Wells has also vied in the long jump and 100 in her first season at Fernandina Beach, after delivering strong volleyball and basketball campaigns.

While growing up in Coupeville, Savina, younger sister of fellow Wolf stars Ulrik and Izzy Wells, was a marquee player in multiple sports.

Volleyball, basketball, softball, track and field, and doing cartwheels across the little league fields at Rhododendron Park — she was the undisputed queen.

And might have been referred to as “The Chosen One” in stories written at 2:00 AM by overly excitable bloggers.

Or at least that’s the rumor.
