Tate Wyman is burning up the track, and the books.

The Coupeville High School grad, now a sophomore at Oregon Tech, finished 2nd in the 100 and 3rd in the 200 Saturday at the Nancy and Norm Berney Classic in Salem.

Wyman hit the tape in 11.44 seconds in the shorter event, and 23.04 in the longer one.

He also stacked up well against a large field of competitors, with 27 men participating in the 100 and 16 coming to the line for the 200.

Overall, Wyman picked up 14 points for the Hustlin’ Owls.

His performance at Saturday’s meet capped a stellar couple of days for the former Wolf, who was honored earlier in the week for his academic performance.

Wyman was named to both the Daktronics-NAIA Scholar-Athletes list, which honors students who have at least a 3.50 grade point average, and to the Cascade Conference All-Academic team.

Taygin Jump ended the regular season with a bang.

The Coupeville grad, now a sophomore track and field star at Plattsburgh State, competed in three events Friday at the SLU Twilight Invite in Canton, New York, handily winning both the hammer throw and javelin toss.

Jump chucked her hammer 125 feet, five inches, finishing 21 feet, 11 inches ahead of the second-place finisher.

The former Wolf ace also claimed the title in the javelin with a heave of 95-09, this time placing exactly 22 feet ahead of her nearest rival.

The one event Jump didn’t win Friday was the discus, but she set a PR anyway, claiming fourth place (out of 11 competitors) with a throw of 82-09.

Aleksia and Khanor’s older sister, who is majoring in Environmental Planning & Management/Geology, tallied 26 points for the Cardinals, who finished second in the team standings.

You can start calling him Tate the Great.

Wyman soared 21 feet, eight inches in the long jump, setting a PR and finishing an impressive eight inches better than anyone else in the field.

He also ran a leg on a triumphant 4 x 100 relay unit which set a season best at 42.66 seconds, before finishing the day as part of a 4 x 400 squad which hit the tape in 3:38.27, earning 5th.
