Taygin Jump came in like a wrecking ball and went out like a star.
The Coupeville grad capped her freshman track and field season at Plattsburgh State Friday with a stellar performance at the State University of New York Athletic Conference Outdoor Championships.
Competing in Geneseo, Jump claimed seventh place in the javelin, earning points for the Cardinals.
She threw her implement 102 feet, eight inches.
That was one of two events Jump lined up for at SUNYAC, also finishing 18th in the hammer throw with a lob of 115-00.
During her freshman collegiate season, the former Wolf vied in numerous events, participating in both indoor and outdoor track seasons.
During her time at CHS, Aleksia and Khanor’s older sister played volleyball, both in school and with her club team, while also competing in track and field.
