If the lights are shining, so is Taygin Jump.
The Coupeville High School grad, now a sophomore at Plattsburgh State, was back in action Friday at the RPI Friday Night Under the Lights Invitational in Troy, New York.
The track and field star accounted for five of her team’s 46 points, claiming 5th in the javelin (out of a field of 22 competitors) and 8th (of 27) in the hammer throw.
Jump set a collegiate PR in the latter event, flinging her implement 127 feet, five inches, while launching the javelin a solid 95-09.
A stellar multi-sport athlete who participated in volleyball and track back in her CHS days, the former Wolf is majoring in Environmental Planning and Management/Geology.
Plattsburgh State athletes will be back in action next weekend with two meets.
The Bobbi Palma Spring Classic in Albany, New York goes down Friday, April 18, while the Middlebury Invitational is the next day in Vermont.
