He’s got some zing in his fling.

Coupeville High School sophomore Khanor Jump finished 3rd in the hammer throw Saturday at a meet held at Evergreen State College in Olympia, smashing his PR by a solid seven feet.

The Wolf ace launched his implement 117 feet, two inches, thoroughly besting his top mark from his freshman campaign of 110-02.

The hammer throw is not part of the traditional lineup for Washington state high school teams during the regular season, so throwers have to find other outlets.

Jump was competing in the Hammer Meet Series Polar Bear event, part of a string of competitions which will lead up to the Washington Hammer State Championships, which are held separately from the WIAA state meet.

He finished 22nd in that finale last year, second-best showing of any freshman in the field, but obviously wants more this time around.

“Good improvement from last year, great start!” said CHS coach Bob Martin. “Pretty sweet!”

She’s shining on the big stage.

Coupeville grad Taygin Jump, now a junior at Plattsburgh State, set a PR in the weight throw Friday, earning points for the Cardinals by finishing 7th in a field of 22 competitors.

The former Wolf was competing at the State University of New York Athletic Conference (SUNYAC) Indoor Track and Field Championships in Brockport, New York.

Jump’s best throw Friday traveled 44 feet, 10.25 inches, besting her previous top mark of 44-09, set just a week ago.

A standout volleyball and track and field athlete during her Cow Town days, Aleksia and Khanor’s big sister is majoring in Environmental Planning & Management at Plattsburgh.

The Cardinals wrap the indoor season with two more postseason meets for qualifiers — the All-Atlantic Region Track and Field Conference Championships and the NCAA D-III Championships — before moving outdoors as the weather warms.

Busy day, productive day.

Wyman soared 21 feet, 00.75 inches in the former and hit the tape in 8.79 seconds in the latter, setting a PR while clearing the obstacles.

He also clocked a 7.48 in the 60-meter sprint, as well.

She lives to hurl things.

Coupeville High School grad Taygin Jump is in her third season competing in the world of collegiate track and field for Plattsburgh State, and she hasn’t lost any of her desire to throw stuff far, far away.

Friday afternoon, the Cardinal junior was in Canton, New York for the St. Lawrence Open, where she competed in the weight throw and shot put.

In the first of those two events Jump tossed her implement 44 feet, nine inches — tying her PR — to finish 4th in a field of 20 competitors.

That allowed her to score five points for Plattsburgh.

Jump also notched 14th place in a 23-woman shot put rumble, launching the orb 26-03.

Next up for the former Wolf and her current teammates is the SUNYAC Indoor Championships in Brockport, New York Feb. 27-28.

After playing volleyball and competing in track during her CHS days, Aleksia and Khanor’s big sis has been pursuing college studies in Environmental Planning & Management while making numerous academic honor rolls.

Why wait for the weekend?

Spicing up the early part of the week, Coupeville grad Taygin Jump and her teammates hosted the Plattsburgh State Tuesday Track and Field Meet, the lone home indoor rumble for the Cardinals.

Her previous best was 44-6.75, set at the SLU Open Feb. 21, 2025.

The Plattsburgh junior also claimed 8th place in the shot put Tuesday, throwing the orb 27-2.75.

When she’s not crushing it in the world of track and field, Aleksia and Khanor’s big sis studies Environmental Planning and Management at the New York-based institution of higher learning.
