Jacob Smith made his move.

Running a very strong race at the Cashmere Invitational Saturday, the Coupeville High School junior propelled himself into the Top 10 for boys who have run the 100 in 1A this season.

He’s the only Wolf to appear on the leaders list in two individual races, while sophomore Lindsey Roberts (100 hurdles and two relays) shows up three times total.

With Danny Conlisk sliding back in to the Top 10 in the 400 (he won his race at Cashmere), CHS has eight athletes currently among the very best in their classification.

Girls:

100 Hurdles — Lindsey Roberts (5th) 16.30

4 x 100 — Lauren Grove, Roberts, Maya Toomey-Stout, Mallory Kortuem (5th) 52.17

It was an epic journey, but worth it.

Traveling more than 300 miles round trip, the Coupeville High School track and field squad joined 17 other schools at the Cashmere Invitational Saturday, and left its mark while there.

The Wolf boys, led by a win in the 400 from sophomore Danny Conlisk and second-place finishes in both the 100 and 200 from junior Jacob Smith, placed 5th.

Meanwhile, the CHS girls, who got a second-place finish from freshman Cassidy Moody in the high jump, claimed 9th overall.

While Coupeville didn’t take as many bodies along as it would have if it had just been a regular meet, the Wolves still saw 12 different athletes set PRs.

Conlisk was the only one to notch two personal records on the day, claiming PRs in both of his events, the 400 and 800.

His win in the 400, coming against a field of 23 other runners, came by .01 of a second (52.70 vs 52.71), as he out-leaned Nathan Berglund of Deer Park.

The oval just got crowded.

With the high school squad already off running (and throwing), the brand-new Coupeville track and field facilities welcomed middle school athletes into the mix this week.

Co-coaches Elizabeth Bitting and Jon Gabelein (she’s a vet, he replaces Bob Martin, who moved up to the high school squad) are joined by assistant coach (and former Wolf great) Larry Hurlburt.

They’ll be working with 26 athletes and the team’s five-meet season kicks off with a trip to Port Angeles April 27.

Thursday, Apr. 27 @ Port Angeles
Wednesday, May 3 @ Port Townsend
Tuesday, May 9 home meet
Thursday, May 16 @ Sequim

Giant killers.

Facing off with three large 2A schools Wednesday, lil’ Coupeville (small even by 1A standards) pulled off three wins and set 32 PRs at a four-team track meet in Bremerton.

The Wolves didn’t have the depth to upend North Kitsap, Olympic and Sequim in the team standings — the CHS girls finished third, the boys fourth — but they more than held their own as individuals.

Sophomore sensations Danny Conlisk (400) and Lindsey Roberts (100 hurdles) ran away with titles, with Conlisk narrowly missing out on a double dip.

He came within a second of also winning the 800, one of seven 2nd place finishes compiled by the Wolves.

The third win came courtesy the men’s 4 x 100 relay squad, which was comprised of seniors Jacob Martin and Mitchell Carroll and juniors Cameron Toomey-Stout and Jacob Smith.

Cassidy Moody is one to watch.

The Coupeville High School freshman has thrown her name into state title contention in the past week, setting a PR in the high jump at Thursday’s home track meet.

Clearing an even five feet, she vaults all the way into a tie for the third-best performance by a 1A girl this spring, just four inches off state leader Sienna Swannack of Lakeside (Nine Mile).

Moody’s charge into the top 10 gives CHS eight athletes (five girls and three boys) who currently sit in the top 10 in at least one event among all 1A athletes this spring.

The Wolves narrowly miss out on having nine, as sophomore Danny Conlisk sits at #11 in the 400 and #12 in the 800.

Coupeville’s top 10 performances as of Sunday morning:

Girls:

100 Hurdles — Lindsey Roberts (3rd) 16.30

4 x 100 — Roberts, Mallory Kortuem, Maya Toomey-Stout, Lauren Grove (5th) 52.69

4 x 200 — Grove, Toomey-Stout, Kortuem, Roberts (6th) 1:51.51

High Jump — Cassidy Moody (3rd) 5-00

Boys:

200 — Jacob Smith (4th) 23.12

Long Jump — Jacob Martin (4th) 20-07

Triple Jump — Mitchell Carroll (10th) 39-11
