No old farts allowed.

Saturday was all about the young guns, with the Coupeville High School track and field team competing at the 12-team Stanwood Frosh/Soph Invitational.

As the title of the event indicates, the meet was restricted to 9th and 10th graders, with athletes vying against rivals from their own graduating classes.

Though, in a couple of cases, Wolf freshmen moved up a rung and ran in relays with the sophomores.

Despite repping one of the smallest schools in attendance, the 2B Wolves held up well against their larger rivals.

The CHS girls earned a 6th place showing in the team standings, while their male counterparts finished 10th.

The 3A Stanwood girls and 4A Redmond boys, both featuring very deep rosters, finished atop the mountain.

Overall, the Wolves posted 30 PRs, with two athletes winning individual titles.

Freshman Tamsin Ward was tops in the shot put, while sophomore Wyatt Fitch-Marron scraped the sky in the high jump.

That duo has combined to snag five victories across the season’s first three meets.

Coupeville’s entire team gets back into action this coming Wednesday, Apr. 1, when the Wolves travel to the mainland for a Northwest 2B/1B League meet hosted by Mount Vernon Christian.
