They closed with a bang.
Reaching the end of the middle school cross country season Wednesday, Coupeville got third place performances from 7th graders Anna Powers and Henry Purdue at the Cascade League Championships.
Meet host South Whidbey earned both team titles at the seven-team event, with CMS nailing down third place in the boys’ competition and fourth in the girls.
Falcon 7th graders Adeline Stevens and Ash Kline claimed the individual crowns on the 3,000-meter course, with 180 runners competing.
Coupeville, which has steadily been building its numbers, sent 25 harriers to the line.
Henry Purdue (3rd) and Cyrus Sparacio (9th) landed in the top 10 in the boys race.
“It was a great end to the season!” said Wolf coach Amber Wyman.
“This really is an amazing group of athletes! They always push themselves to go the extra mile. Literally. They work hard and it shows when they race.”
While one season ends, Wyman is already looking forward to the future.
“I’m sad to see this season come to an end,” she said. “Especially since they just seem to be hitting their stride.
“I’m already looking forward to seeing what the returning athletes will do next season!”
