Build the future, today!

Well, OK, things don’t actually get going until September, but you get the point.

Coupeville schools are putting a big push on robotics, with a two-pronged approach.

They want to expand their middle school team, which is open to students in grades 6-8, while also developing their first team at the high school (9-12) level.

There’s a new award-winning rider on the horizon.

Coupeville Middle School 7th grader Christopher Zenz has come to our attention, after he and his faithful steed, Joel Miller, placed second in their class at a school show held Sunday at the Whidbey Equestrian School.

Zenz, who is taught by Rhed Locke of Big Rhed Barn, competed in Western Dressage.

The show drew multiple riders across 13 levels.

They came, they saw, they impressed the judges.

The Coupeville Middle School robotics club spent Saturday at Glacier Peak High School in Snohomish, competing in the First Lego League Qualifier.

Led by coaches Alison Perera and Doug McVey, the Wolves had two teams competing — the Robotic Wolves and Technical Duties.

CMS left school at the crack o’ dawn (or 6:00 AM) and pulled back into Cow Town about 14 hours later.

“It’s been a long day,” Perera said. “Super proud of the kids for persevering through a long day!”

Coupeville finished 8th and 9th out of a field of 31 teams.

While CMS didn’t advance to the semifinals this year, it was still a strong run for the talented students.

“It was a tough field with some great innovative projects and cool robot designs,” Perera said. “It was a great day after a great season!”

Students did a presentation in the morning, then played the robot game in the afternoon, with both CMS teams notching higher scores than they did in previous practices.

It’s a meet so big, they break it into two parts.

The Cascade League Track and Field Championships pits seven middle schools against each other, with Coupeville right in the thick of things.

Day one went down Thursday at Lakewood, with day two set for Wednesday, June 1 at the same location.

The opening session featured a mix of prelims and finals, with Coupeville coming away with a rock-solid 30 PR’s spread among its athletes.

The biggest splash of the day came courtesy Wolf 8th grader Malachi Somes, who ran away with a victory in the finals of the 1600.

Notching a career-best time, he topped a 12-man field, holding off his closest competitor by more than five seconds.
