The pole vaulters got them on the scoreboard.
Freshman Axel Marshall and junior Cael Wilson captured Coupeville’s first medals Friday during day two of the 2B state track and field championships.
Competing at Zaepfel Stadium in Yakima, Marshall soared 18 inches higher than his previous PR to finish fifth, while Wilson claimed 8th in the event for a second-straight season.
Marshall is the 88th Wolf to earn a state meet medal in the modern era (1963-2024).
While the duo were the only medal winners for Coupeville, the Wolves did nail down six PR’s on the day.
The three-day meet wraps Saturday, kicking off with the “opening ceremonies,” then getting into another full day of competition.
Coupeville will have Aleera Kent (3200), Carson Field (3200), Nick Guay (High Jump), Carly Burt (Pole Vault), Aleksia Jump (Pole Vault), Reese Wilkinson (Discus), and Zac Tackett (Discus) in action during the finale.
