Weak weather, strong performances

Back in double digits.

Coupeville 7th grader Tamsin Ward claimed three more wins Thursday during a three-team middle school track and field meet in Langley.

Coming out on top in the 100 and shot put, while also running a leg on a triumphant 4 x 200 relay squad, the young Wolf reached 10 victories on the season.

That leaves Ward one off her pace from last season, when she debuted with 11 wins.

The two CMS teammates closest to her in claiming gold medals are 8th grader Beckett Green and 7th grader Brooklyn Pope, who both have won seven times this season.

Pope joined Ward, Elizabeth Marshall, and Emma Cushman on that 4 x 2 team Thursday, while also claiming an individual title in the high jump.

Green seized the day in the 200, with fellow Wolf 8th graders Johnathan Jacobsen (High Jump) and Roger Merino-Martinez (Long Jump) rounding out Coupeville’s winners.

Host South Whidbey won the girls team titles, while King’s claimed the boys’ crowns.

The day played out in less-than-spectacular conditions, but the Wolves held up well.

“Despite some rainy and cold weather, the middle school athletes had a successful last regular season meet!” said CMS coach Amber Wyman.

“Our athletes gave it their all! We are very proud of their accomplishments and are looking forward to seeing what they can do in their final two meets at Lakewood.”

Those meets comprise the Cascade League Championships, with prelims set for May 22 and finals for May 29.

Tamsin Ward fires the shot put.

Former Wolf sizzles in Sunshine State

She finished her season with a flourish.

Outperforming her seed by five spots, Fernandina Beach High School junior Savina Wells claimed eighth place in the high jump Thursday at the FHSAA Class 2A State Track and Field Championships in Florida.

She was one of three Pirates to compete at state, and one of two to score points, joining javelin chucker Luke Twardy.

The former Coupeville supernova tied her season-best mark with a jump of four feet, 11.75 inches, barely missing her PR, which stands at 5-00 from her sophomore campaign.

Wells, who grew up playing multiple sports on Central Whidbey’s prairie, earned her ticket to state by winning a jump-off at regionals May 7, after finishing in a three-way tie for second place.

Along with the high jump, she also competed in the javelin, discus, and long jump this season, finishing fifth in the first of those events at regionals.

This was Wells second season of track at Fernandina Beach, and her first trip to state.

She also plays volleyball and basketball for the Pirates.

Ulrik and Izzy’s younger sister, sometimes referred to as “The Chosen One” by Cow Town sports bloggers back in the day, was a four-sport sensation as a young Wolf, also ripping up the softball field.

Coupeville’s loss became Florida’s gain when she and her family moved to the Sunshine State after her freshman year.

Sun, smiles, and success

It was a milestone moment.

Saturday’s District 1/2 track and field championships were the last home event for a Coupeville High School sports team during the 2023-2024 school year.

The sun was blazing (after a less than stellar start to spring), 18 Wolves qualified for the state meet, and wandering photographer John Fisken stayed busy, clicking away.

The pics above and below come to us courtesy him.

To see everything he snapped, and possibly ponder some purchases, pop over to:

The chase continues for Wolf track stars

Posted in Track, tagged , , , , on May 13, 2024| Leave a Comment »

Carly Burt made a move. Lyla Stuurmans, too.

The duo were the highest risers for the Coupeville High School track and field team, which has six athletes in the top 10 statewide rankings through May 13.

Based on her performance at the district meet, Burt jumps from 7th into a tie for 5th among all 2B female pole vaulters.

Meanwhile Stuurmans gets back into the top 10 in the 400, giving her two slots as she was already camped out among the best long jumpers.

And yet, in a quirk, the Wolf junior won’t get a chance to compete at state in that last event, as she finished third at districts, and only the top two advance.

Stuurmans did punch her ticket to Yakima in both the 400 and 800, however, which takes a little of the sting away.

With just one meet left, the aforementioned state championships, which go down May 23-25, here’s where Coupeville athletes currently sit in the top 10 rankings for 2B:

 

GIRLS:

400 — Lyla Stuurmans (10th) 1:03.88

Shot Put — Katie Marti (10th) 33-05

Discus — Reese Wilkinson (7th) 111-06

Pole Vault — Carly Burt (5th-tie) 8-06

Long Jump — Stuurmans (5th) 15-08

 

BOYS:

High Jump — Nick Guay (3rd-tie) 6-00

Pole Vault — Cael Wilson (4th) 12-00
