Saturdays are for throwing.

Coupeville grad Taygin Jump, now a junior at Plattsburgh State in New York, was back at it this weekend, chucking things as a college track and field athlete.

The former Wolf was competing at the Bomber Invitational, hosted by Ithaca College, where she placed 24th out of 47 competitors in the weight throw.

Jump tossed her implement 40 feet, 00.75 inches, while her college PR is 44-6.75.

With the indoor track season hitting full stride, Plattsburgh State has a busy schedule.

Next up for the Cardinals is the Blue and Orange Invitational in Utica, New York next Saturday, Feb. 7.

When she’s not throwing things into the wild blue yonder Jump is majoring in Environmental Planning and Management.

Aleksia and Khanor’s big sis, a standout volleyball and track and field athlete during her CHS days, has been on the Honor Roll during each of her collegiate seasons.

So now you’re trolling Instagram for content?

Of course, I am.

Doing so enables me to drop some new photos of Coupeville grad Madison McMillan repping her college softball uniform in advance of the spring season.

Edmonds College kicks off play Feb. 20 against Mt. Hood, with a 32-game campaign running through early May.

McMillan, who made her living belting home runs which soared off the CHS diamond and landed down around Prairie Center, is a freshman for the Tritons.

When she chucks things, they stay chucked.

Coupeville grad Taygin Jump, now a junior at Plattsburgh State, was back in action Saturday, competing at the St. Lawrence Invitational in Canton, New York, where she racked up some points for the Cardinals.

The former Wolf placed 12th in the shot put, unleashing a throw of 24 feet, nine inches, but it was the weight throw where she really left her mark.

Jump let fly on a throw of 42-5.25 to claim 2nd place out of a field of 14 competitors, earning eight points for Plattsburgh.

A volleyball and track star back in her CHS days, Aleksia and Khanor’s older sister is majoring in Environmental Planning & Management when not busy as an athlete.

Plattsburgh returns to action next Saturday, Jan. 31 with an appearance at the Bomber Invitational in Ithaca, New York.

Track’s back.

Staying indoors, where January weather is a little less of a problem, two Coupeville grads launched a new season of competition this weekend.

Taygin Jump, a junior at Plattsburgh State, was busy at the Middlebury Winter Classic in Vermont Saturday, while Tate Wyman, an Oregon Tech junior, vied at the Nevada Invitational Friday and Saturday.

Jump finished 8th in the weight throw, chucking her implement 42 feet, 3.25 inches, while also claiming 12th in the shot put with a heave of 29-01.

Plattsburgh returns to action next Saturday, Jan. 24, at a meet hosted by St. Lawrence in New York.

Wyman hit the oval running, competing in three events at his first 2026 meet.

The former Wolf set a PR in the 60-meter hurdles Friday, hitting the tape in 8.79 seconds, while also soaring 20 feet, eight inches in the long jump.

Saturday he was back in action, running the 200 in 22.97 seconds.

Oregon Tech is slated to head back to Nevada Feb. 5-6 for the Wolfpack Classic in Reno.

When they’re not competing in the arena, Jump is studying Environmental Planning & Management, while Wyman is hard at work in the field of embedded systems engineering technology.
