Putting on a strong performance Wednesday at the Granite Gallop, the Coupeville Middle School cross country team placed three girls and a boy among the day’s top finishers.
The Wolf girls had three of the six fastest times, with Juniper Dotson (3rd), Sarai Dangerfield (4th), and Ava Clark (6th) helping spark CMS to a second-place finish in the team standings behind South Whidbey.
Meanwhile, the Coupeville boys were third, trailing just South Whidbey and King’s, with Jesse Kehoe delivering a 3rd place performance of his own.
Also notable was Danny Powers, who cracked his PR by a dazzling three minutes, a huge jump in time.
Overall, 22 Wolves hit the 1.67-mile course in Granite Falls, in what is the next-to-last race of the season.
