You dare to run on Madeline Roberts, you pay the price, fool.

“We have liftoff!”

Don’t hurt ’em, Hammer!

Too late.

In a college softball game Sunday that featured a match-up between former Coupeville High School teammates, Hailey Hammer had the last laugh.

Now a freshman at Everett Community College, Hammer went yard in the top of the seventh, blasting a fences-clearing solo shot to lift her squad to a 1-0 win against host Shoreline CC.

On the other side of the field, her former Wolf running mate, Madeline Roberts, now a sophomore for the Dolphins.

Both teams are now 4-2 in Northwest Athletic Conference play, putting them in a second-place tie behind Bellevue (5-1).

Everett is 9-9 overall, while Shoreline is 8-6.

Hammer’s long ball, her first as a college player, caught her a bit by surprise.

“Right over center field, it barely felt like I hit it far!,” she said with a laugh.

Dalton Martin is heading down the path Hunter Hammer blazed.

The Coupeville High School senior, who finished 5th in the discus at the 1A state track and field meet last year, signed a letter of intent Friday to Everett Community College.

Martin chose the school because it has a strong EMT program and it offered him the chance to throw on scholarship, said dad Bob.

EVCC competes in the Northwest Athletic Conference and added field events to its track team in 2011.

Hammer, a former CHS basketball and track star, was the school’s first big-time thrower.

After two years with the Trojans, he moved on to become an All-American at Trinity Lutheran.

Martin, who has played football, basketball, tennis and track during his time as a Wolf, competed in the shot put, discus and 4 x 100 as a junior.

He finished 3rd at districts in the shot put, while winning league, sub-district and district titles in the discus.

At the state meet in Cheney last spring, Martin unleashed a PR of 147 feet (nearly eight feet better than his previous best) to bring home a fifth-place medal.

Get ready Everett. The thunder is coming to town.

Coupeville High School senior softball slugger Hailey Hammer will be packing up her booming bat after graduation and taking her high-powered offensive game to the next level.

She has signed a letter of intent to play at Everett Community College next year, becoming the second Wolf in as many years to net a college softball scholarship.

Hammer follows in the footsteps of former teammate Madeline Roberts, who is currently a freshman at Shoreline Community College, one of Everett’s rivals in the Northwest Athletic Conference.

By choosing Everett, Hammer is also following in the footsteps of older brother Hunter Hammer, who was a successful track thrower and basketball player at the school.

For Hailey, the chance to become a Trojan was an easy one.

“It has been one of my tops since the beginning,” she said. “It’s close to home, runs in the family, with Hunter going we’ve made several trips over there and I loved the staff and coaches there.

“It was a great experience trying out for the team and I was ecstatic when they offered me a spot with a scholarship.”

Before she goes, though, she has one last high school season to play.

The Wolves are scheduled to kick off their softball season Monday against Sultan (4 PM), though that might be dicey with all the rain that fell Sunday.

But, eventually, the season will kick off and it will be Hammer’s 12th as a varsity player at CHS.

She has been the rare player to be a varsity fixture in three sports (volleyball, basketball, softball) for all four years of high school.
