They closed with a bang.

Reaching the end of the middle school cross country season Wednesday, Coupeville got third place performances from 7th graders Anna Powers and Henry Purdue at the Cascade League Championships.

Meet host South Whidbey earned both team titles at the seven-team event, with CMS nailing down third place in the boys’ competition and fourth in the girls.

Falcon 7th graders Adeline Stevens and Ash Kline claimed the individual crowns on the 3,000-meter course, with 180 runners competing.

Coupeville, which has steadily been building its numbers, sent 25 harriers to the line.

Henry Purdue (3rd) and Cyrus Sparacio (9th) landed in the top 10 in the boys race.

“It was a great end to the season!” said Wolf coach Amber Wyman.

“This really is an amazing group of athletes! They always push themselves to go the extra mile. Literally. They work hard and it shows when they race.”

While one season ends, Wyman is already looking forward to the future.

“I’m sad to see this season come to an end,” she said. “Especially since they just seem to be hitting their stride.

“I’m already looking forward to seeing what the returning athletes will do next season!”

They’re headed for the finish line and picking up speed.

While there the Wolves acquitted themselves quite nicely, with the boys earning second place in the team standings and the girls third.

Zipping across the 1.7-mile course, CMS 7th grader Henry Purdue had his team’s best finish, claiming second, just four seconds off of the pace set by an 8th grader from Cedar Park Christian.

Cyrus Sparacio (5th) and Anna Powers (8th) also copped top 10 performances.

Amber Wyman’s team wraps up its season next Wednesday, Oct. 16, when the Wolves travel to Langley for the Cascade League Championships.

The Wolves invaded the eye of the storm Saturday morning.

Traveling to University Place, the Coupeville Middle School cross country squad participated in the massive 28th annual John Payne Invitational.

The event drew entries from 97 high schools, 21 middle schools, and 13 running clubs.

CMS competed in the 1.5-mile youth race, with the Wolf boys finishing 3rd in the team standings, and girls’ 9th.

Coupeville claimed 5th in the overall team standings.

It was a go-go day from start to finish, said CMS coach Amber Wyman.

“That race was fast and furious! We got there shortly before 9:30, got settled, grabbed bibs, headed straight to the start and they headed out!”

The calm before the storm.

Having survived the event, the Wolves have two meets left on their schedule.

The middle school harriers will join their CHS counterparts next Saturday, Oct. 12 at the 4th annual Mountain Loop Invitational in Granite Falls.

After that, CMS closes the campaign with a trek to South Whidbey Wednesday, Oct. 16 for the Cascade League Championships.

“I am so proud of all my runners!”

The breeze just made them run faster.

Staying one step ahead of the cool air coming off the water at Fort Casey State Park Thursday, Coupeville Middle School cross country runners held up well in their lone home meet of the season.

The Wolves welcomed six other Cascade League schools to Whidbey, then presented them with an enticing 1.7-mile course.

South Whidbey claimed the girls’ team title, while King’s captured the boys’ crown. Coupeville finished third in both competitions.

Aleya Lewis of Lakewood and Ash Kline of South Whidbey earned individual honors, with the Wolves placing Henry Purdue and Cyrus Sparacio in the top 10.

CMS coach Amber Wyman sent 26 runners to the line Thursday and came away impressed with her young athletes.

“It was a beautiful day, and the runners really pushed hard!” she said.

“We had some tough competition, but I am so proud of all of my runners for how hard they work at practice and all the effort they give.

“It is really paying off!”

The Wolves get right back at it this Saturday, Oct. 5 when they travel to University Place to take part in the 28th annual John Payne Cross Country Invitational.
