Lauren Bayne claimed the spotlight as her own.

With three of its fastest runners (Makana Stone, Sylvia Hurlburt and Kirsten Pelroy) not competing Thursday in Sequim, the Coupeville High School girls’ track squad turned to its youngsters for its highlights.

Bayne, a speedy freshman, set PRs in all three of her events, while claiming the only victory of the day for the Wolves in the 3200.

She won that event by nearly 16 seconds.

Abby Parker tied Bayne with three PRs, while Delaney Armstrong, Connor Thompson, Mitchell Losey and Jesse Hester all had two apiece.

The meet drew seven schools, with the host school taking top honors in both team races.

Coupeville finished fifth on the girls side and sixth on the boys.

18 cheers for Amanda Foley!!

Posted in Cheer, Drama, Happy birthday, Track, tagged Amanda Foley, Cheer, CHS Wolves, drama, Happy birthday, Track on April 23, 2015| Leave a Comment »

Amanda Foley

Amanda Foley overflows with talent.

The Coupeville High School senior, who celebrates a birthday today, does a little bit of everything and does it all supremely well.

Cheer, track, drama, band, ASB board and that’s just the start.

When I did a feature story on her in 2013 — https://coupevillesports.com/2013/09/01/cheerleading-isnt-just-short-skirts-and-big-smiles/ — it was easy to see she was a bright, brilliant young woman well on her way to accomplishing great things.

Today, as she nears graduation and plans for success at the next level — college and beyond — Foley remains one of the best this town has to offer.

Right now, as I write this, she is on a bus with her Wolf teammates, headed to another track meet.

I want to wish her the best — at the meet, on her birthday and in her boundless future.

You’re a bright shining star, Amanda.

Keep being yourself. Keep being super awesome.

The Wolves strolled to victories in the 4 x 100 and 4 x 200, besting relay units from Olympic League rivals Klahowya and Port Townsend, as well as 2A Sequim and Canadian interloper Ketchikan.
