No record is safe!!

One by one, they fall.

School track records are set to be broken, but this year it feels like more are falling at Coupeville High School than at any time in recent memory.

With a pack of incredibly talented freshman girls teaming up with some seasoned pros, another mark seems to bite the dust every other meet.

Running at the Cascade Conference League Meet in Seattle Thursday, Wolf girls shattered three school marks.

Two were actually re-breakings, as Makana Stone lowered her time in the 200, a week after she busted a mark that had stood since 2005, and the 4 x 200 team went berserk.

That squad (Stone, fellow frosh Sylvia Hurlburt and seniors Madison Tisa McPhee and Jai’Lysa Hoskins) broke the school mark earlier in the season, but went several steps better Thursday. Not only did they lower their own mark, they set the fastest time in 1A this season.

The third mark to fall came in the 4 x 400, when Hoskins, Stone, freshman Kirsten Pelroy and sophomore Marisa Etzell ran a 4:15.92, four seconds better than their previous season best and shattering the school mark of 4:17.09.

And guess what? There are still three meets left (districts, tri-districts and state).

Better use pencil when you’re writing in the new school records, and keep an eraser nearby.

Simply the best (in the state)!!

Wolves and Falcons unite, as CHS hurdler Madison Tisa McPhee, left, and South Whidbey’s splendid distance runner Lillianna Stelling celebrate their mutual awesomeness.

There may be no stopping them.

Repping the red and black of the smallest school in the eight-team 1A/2A league, the four girls who make up Coupeville High School’s 4 x 200 relay team didn’t just win their event at the Cascade Conference League Meet Thursday in Seattle.

They didn’t just re-break their own school record.

They ran the single fastest time in 1A this season (1:47.51), setting themselves up as the favorites as the Wolves head to sub-districts, tri-districts and state.

Seniors Madison Tisa McPhee and Jai’Lysa Hoskins and freshmen Sylvia Hurlburt and Makana Stone are like gunfighters throwing open saloon doors and watching everyone flee from in front of their steely gazes.

And while the Wolves may not have the raw numbers to compete for a team title (the girls finished sixth, the boys eighth), Coupeville made an impact at Woolsey Stadium.

Stone blitzed to wins in the 100 and 200 (where she set a PR), crushing a group of runners from King’s who were supposed to give her trouble, then ran legs on two winning relay teams. She has now won an astounding 32 times in her first year.

Hot on her heels was Tisa McPhee, who swept both hurdles events and now has 21 wins on the season.

The 4 x 200 squad wasn’t the only quick Wolf relay team, as the 4 x 400 unit claimed the 7th fastest time in 1A this season and the 4 x 100 notched the 8th fastest time.

While the short races got the buzz, Wolf sophomore Erin Rosenkranz delivered the biggest time drop of the day, slicing off an amazing 26 seconds from her best time in the 3200.

Here’s 39 kids who could go (nicely) harass their coaches!!

One week out and still no posted results.

At this point, I’m starting to assume the Coupeville Middle School track coaches may never (ever, ever) post results from last Tuesday’s season-opening meet in Langley.

So, if you’re a CMS athlete and you’ve been inquiring as to when you’ll get some time in the spotlight, you have two choices — accept it or loudly tell your coaches every day you want to see your name in bold type.

Up to you guys and how dedicated you are to the cause of being a pain in the rear.

But, thanks to Eileen Stone, I can make sure that all of you get your name in print at least once this season. So, there’s that.

The 2013 CMS track rosters:

7th grade:

Noah Allison
Lauren Bayne
Laurence Boado
Kyla Briscoe
Maggie Crimmins
Hayley Dauphinais

Tyler King was in a hurry, a hurry to be awesome!!

Tyler King in full-on beast mode.

Tyler King picks his moments.

With his University of Washington track team facing off with arch-rival Washington State University Saturday for the 97th time in their storied history, the Huskies needed one more point to claim a victory on the mens’ side of the battle.

Up stepped King, the former Coupeville High School star, and he delivered more than one point, zooming to a second-place finish in the 3000 meter race.

He clocked in at a brisk eight minutes, 15.97 seconds on the school’s brand-new purple track, which was making its debut, and sealed the deal for the UW.

The two schools first faced off in 1901, but this year’s battle will go down as the Year of the King.
