“Way to show up and show out!”

The trek out to Forks is a fairly long one, but a worthwhile one, especially in the eyes of Coupeville High School track and field coaches.

The Wolves were up at the crack of dawn Saturday, primed for a long day, but the choice to take part in the Forks Lion Club Invitational was the right one.

“No rain, some sun, and a whole lot of speed!” said CHS coach Elizabeth Bitting.

“Great racing and jumping all around, with tons of PRs and some impressive placings.”

The trip was a change from the original schedule, which had the Wolves slated to go to Cashmere today.

Joining the fracas in Forks allowed Coupeville to take more athletes than the other option, and it paid off with the CHS girls claiming a team title at the seven-team meet.

The Wolf boys finished with a solid second-place performance in the team standings, trailing only 2A powerhouse Olympic.

Along the way, Coupeville racked up nine wins and 29 PRs, with Lyla Stuurmans pulling off the double delight with victories in the 800 and 1600.

She was joined by Matthew Ward (triple jump), Aleksia Jump (3200), Carson Field (800), Olivia Hall (400), Cael Wilson (high jump), Katie Marti (discus), and the boys 4 x 100 relay unit.

After bouncing across the backroads of America, the Wolves will get to stay closer to home for their next meet, as they host the Coupeville Classic Invite next Saturday, April 26.

That will be the final regular-season event before the postseason run begins.
