Undefeated and it feels so good.

Coupeville Middle School eighth grader Lindsey Roberts has been flawless in individual track events this season, and nothing changed Thursday in Langley.

Winning all three solo events she participated in — 200, 1600 and the 100 hurdles — she capped a 13-0 regular season.

Now she and her CMS teammates will head to the two-day Cascade League Championships at King’s June 1 and 3.

Roberts and a large pack of Wolves will still have the taste of victory on their lips, having captured wins during their season finale.

Emma Smith (shot put, discus), Chris Battaglia (discus, high jump), Danny Conlisk (200, 1600) and Gabe Eck (200, long jump) were all double winners.

Tia Wurzrainer (800), Ja’Tarya Hoskins (high jump), Jean Lund-Olsen (110 hurdles), Gabe Carlson (long jump), Megan Thorn (high jump), Mason Grove (high jump) and Jaylen Nitta (800) also reached the top of the medal stand.

Soccer stops for nothing.

A bit of rain? Play on.

So that’s just what the mass of teams at Fort Nugent did this weekend, as the annual Rock On 3v3 tourney played out through good weather and bad.

Our severely underpaid camera crew fanned out to capture the soccer smorgasbord pictured above, while I stayed dry at my house.

Nice.

Danny Conlisk (second from right) may have been the lone Wolf on the line, but he won the race.

Chris Battaglia was locked in.

The Coupeville Middle School eighth grader won two events en route to four top-three finishes Wednesday at a three-team track meet in Sultan.

Battaglia swept to wins in the discus and high jump, placed third in the shot put and claimed second in the long jump — an event he picked up at the last moment because he needed something to do while waiting for his regular events.

“He had great results! Amazing athlete, some PRs … pretty good meet!,” said CMS coach Elizabeth Bitting.

Other multiple winners included Maya Toomey-Stout (100, long jump), Lindsey Roberts (100 Hurdles, 200) and Danny Conlisk (200, 1600).

Mallory Kortuem (400), Gabe Eck (100), Jasmine Nastali (long jump) and Cassidy Moody (100 hurdles) rounded out the Wolf winners, as CMS ran away with 12 titles.

Lakewood and Sultan had much deeper teams than Coupeville and used their superior depth to claim the team titles on a day when the temperature climbed to a sticky 80 degrees.

If Lindsey Roberts is the new Makana Stone, then Danny Conlisk is the new Lindsey Roberts.

Roberts continued her perfect start to her 8th grade track season, ripping off two more wins Wednesday at a four-team meet in Shoreline, but Conlisk went her one better.

While Roberts cruised to wins in both sprints (200) and sprinting while evading obstacles (100 hurdles), Conlisk rolled, snatching victories in the 100, 200 and 1600.

Together, the duo accounted for five of Coupeville Middle School’s eight wins.

Seventh grade hurdlers Cassidy Moody and Jean Lund-Olsen and eighth grade high jumper Chris Battaglia also came away with top of the podium performances.

Langley swept both team titles on the girls side of the competition, while King’s (8th) and Northshore Christian (7th) split the boys titles.

Lauren (left) and Kayla hang out with non-twin Lindsey Roberts.

There was too much awesomeness to contain in one body, so they split into Wonder Twins.

Lauren and Kayla Rose may only be freshmen at Coupeville High School, but the duo, who celebrate a joint birthday today, are already stars.

If there has ever been a moment in their young lives when they weren’t smiling, I have yet to see it.

Whether competing for the Wolves, cheering for each other and their classmates, or bouncing through the stands, harassing their parents for snack money, the Rose sisters are whirlwinds of joy and positive energy exploding across the universe.

Both played volleyball for CHS, while Lauren is a three-sport dynamo, adding in basketball and softball to the mix.

Of course, both are more than mere athletes, coming off as smart-as-a-whip, friendly, outgoing young women.

Whether Lauren is gunning down would-be base stealers who foolishly dare to run on her arm from behind the plate, or Kayla is snapping photos, they are a pair to make Coupeville proud.

Plus, unlike the equally awesome Luvera twins, Ana and Ivy (sorry girls), I can actually tell them apart, which is super helpful.

For me, at least…

As the Roses celebrate today, I want to wish both of them the best. May you have much cake as you kick-off another year together.

Two bright, shining stars twinkling, not in the skies above, but right here among us in Cow Town.

Happy birthday, Lauren and Kayla!
