The best photo ever taken of a girl who has no freakin' clue she's about to be pick-pocketed by the incoming Lauren Rose.

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!

The life of a track star — sitting around, waiting for your event to be called.

"By the time they get this race started, we'll be in college..."

“By the time they get this race started, we’ll be in college…”

Lindsey Roberts is in a hurry.

The Coupeville Middle School eight grader hasn’t been caught in a race this year yet, adding four more wins (200, 1600, 100 hurdles, 4 x 100 relay) to her resume Thursday in a three-team meet in Langley.

Oh yeah, and Roberts also set PRs in all three of her individual races. No big deal, just another day at the (oval) office.

The Wolf girls were especially strong in the relays, winning the 4 x 100 in both the 7th grade race (Mallory Kortuem, Avalon Renninger, Tia Wurzrainer, Maya Toomey-Stout) and 8th grade contest (Roberts, Ashlie Shank, Emma Smith, Jasmine Nastali).

On the boys side, CMS won seven events, sweeping the long jump (Sean Toomey-Stout, Gabe Eck), High Jump (Mason Testroet, Chris Battaglia) and 1600 (Tucker Hall, Danny Conlisk).

Battaglia was a two-time champ, also claiming first in the discus.

The meet brought together Island rivals Coupeville and Langley, with main-lander Granite Falls tossed in just for fun.

More photos, less typing.

With results from Thursday’s Coupeville Middle School track meet in Langley not yet posted (simmer down, I’ll keep an eye on athletic.net), we’ll get you primed with a medley of photos.

The pics were shot by two parents who both wish to remain in the background and don’t want photo credits and yes, the focus is on the girls side of the track oval.

If you’re a mom or dad and have shot photos of the Wolf boys, send them my way.

I can only run what I have.

So, here you go.

Lindsey Roberts is the new Makana Stone.

Setting her track season off with a bang, the Coupeville Middle School eighth grader won all three of her solo events Wednesday at a season-opening four-team meet in Shoreline.

Shredding her opponents just like Stone, who has set school records left and right for the Wolves in three seasons of high school track, Roberts won the 200, 1600 and 100 hurdles.

She accounted for three of Coupeville’s seven wins on the day, with fellow eighth graders Danny Conlisk (1600) and Gabe Eck (long jump) joining her at the top of the charts.

The CMS seventh graders were led by Maya Toomey-Stout (100 hurdles) and the 4 x 200 relay squad (Jillian Mayne, Anna Dion, Oliana Stange, Megan Thorn), who also recorded wins.

Host King’s won the eighth grade boys’ team battle, while Lakewood captured the seventh grade boys title and swept both girls competitions.

The air was warm, but the running was crisp.

Taking advantage of a gorgeous April day Sunday, tons of people who like going out for a competitive jog crammed into Oak Harbor for the Whidbey Island Marathon.

While no one from Coupeville competed in that event, a bunch of Cow Town natives did take part in the half marathon, 10K and 5K that were also held.

Their results are below, with two caveats:

1) If I missed anyone when combing through the results, I blame my eyes going blurry at the endless stream of names.

2) If you listed Duluth, Minnesota as your hometown, you’re out of luck. Same thing with British Columbia, Tallahassee or, God forbid, Oak Harbor itself.

This is called Coupeville Sports for a reason.
