Taygin Jump
Staten Island is home to more than just a ferry owned by Saturday Night Live stars.
Friday it was also the site of the FastTrack National Invitational, a collegiate track and field meet which drew a large group of competitors.
In the thick of things was Coupeville grad Taygin Jump, another person familiar with ferries from her time on Whidbey.
Now a sophomore at Plattsburgh State, the former Wolf let loose in the weight throw and shot put.
Jump chucked the first implement an even 40 feet, while tossing the second orb a solid 27-3.50.
This is her second indoor track season as a member of Cardinal Nation, following on the heels of her volleyball and track and field exploits at CHS.
When she’s not throwing things, the oldest of Phil and Christina Jump’s three children is pursuing a degree in Environmental Planning & Management/Geology.
