There have been three middle school track meets this season, and yet I have reported results from only two.

Why, you ask?

Because Northshore Christian Academy can’t get its stuff together, that’s why.

After hosting Coupeville and King’s May 14, Northshore, as the home team, would be expected to post results to athletic.net, the clearing house for all things track related.

They didn’t, though, stiffing the Wolves, both in person and online, leaving CMS without times or distances in any event.

Nothing was posted, nothing was announced in person.

Nada. Zip.

Boo, Northshore! You had one job, and you blew it.

If they had posted times, we’d be able to tell you that 7th grade stars Lindsey Roberts (6:33) and Reed Richards (6:34) set PRs in the 1600.

Well, I guess I just did, thanks to the efforts of CMS coach Janie Rosenkrance, who hand-timed that event, and mom Sherry Roberts, who passed on the info.

But, if you came here looking for stats on Chris Battaglia, the Eck brothers or Kalia Littlejohn, go check with Northshore, cause that apparently is a secret not to be revealed.

The next great track star is on her way.

While sophomore Makana Stone continues to shatter records for Coupeville High School, there’s another fast-rising sensation coming up through the middle school ranks to one day join her.

Coupeville Middle School 7th grader Lindsey Roberts, daughter of former CHS Athlete of the Year winners Jon and Sherry (Bonacci) Roberts, won all four of her events Thursday at a three-team meet in Granite Falls.

With wins in the 200, 1600 and 75 meter hurdles, plus the anchor leg on a victorious 4 x 100 relay squad, she sparked the Wolves to a team win over Lakewood and the host Tigers.

The CMS 7th grade boys finished second, while both 8th grade squads came in third.

Other multiple winners for Coupeville included Reed Richards, Mckenzie Meyer, Chris Battaglia, Ty Eck and Gabe Eck.

Lauren Bayne

Lauren Bayne holds up well under pressure.

The joint was jumpin’.

Backed up by a foot-stomping, lung-busting, “D-FENSE!!!”-screaming gym full of their classmates, the Coupeville Middle School 8th grade varsity put a beat-down on visiting Granite Falls Monday.

Having moved up to the high school gym for their home finale, the Wolves got a taste of the floor they will play on next year as freshmen and they reveled in it. Holding the Tigers scoreless until midway through the second quarter, Coupeville romped to a 33-17 victory.

The gym was packed, with the entire population of CMS spending the last half hour of their school day watching classmates like Katrina McGranahan and Payton Aparicio play, and the youthful fans made their presence felt.

Face paint, signs and sustained screaming that never waned, they came loud and proud.

Buoyed by the support, the Wolves stormed out to a 6-0 lead after one quarter, with only a couple of narrow misses keeping it from being a far bigger blowout.

Lauren Rose, Mia Littlejohn and McGranahan each hit a bucket, with Littlejohn’s coming on a steal where she streaked the length of the court, then juked the last defender out of her high tops at the end and calmly banked the ball over the girl’s head and off the glass with a gentle plop.

Not only did Granite Falls not score in the opening quarter, they didn’t have a single shot come remotely close to getting in the hoop.

Too often, they simply lost control under pressure from speedy Wolves like Lauren Bayne, and spent most of their time chasing after Coupeville fast breaks.

The Tigers finally broke through, only to have the Wolves quickly respond each time.

Kyla Briscoe hit back-to-back buckets to blunt one Granite Falls rally, while the duo of Littlejohn and McGranahan controlled the second half, working an outside-inside game.

The pair combined to outscore the visitors by themselves, with Littlejohn dropping in a game-high 13, including a three-point bomb, and McGranahan pounding away inside for 10 more.

Bayne and Briscoe popped for four apiece and Rose tossed in a bucket to round out the scoring.

After the beautiful start, the afternoon’s final three games didn’t go quite as well, though all had their moments.

8th grade JV: Abby Parker beat the buzzer with a running layup, set up by a steal and pass from Shelby Montoya, to salvage a 4-4 tie.

Yes, a tie, as middle school JV teams don’t play overtime. This is not soccer and the rule blows, frankly.

7th grade JV: Montoya scored Coupeville’s only bucket in an 8-2 loss.

7th grade varsity: A wild rally fell just short for the Wolves.

Trailing 12-7 midway through the fourth, Coupeville ripped off six straight to retake the lead.

Lindsey Roberts hit back-to-back pressure-packed buckets in front of parents (and former CHS hoops stars) Jon and Sherry Roberts, before Hope Lodell drilled the go-ahead jumper.

Unfortunately, that was the last gasp for the Wolves, as Granite put together a free-throw, a gorgeous running hook shot and a third-chance rebound to claim a 17-13 win.

Roberts paced Coupeville with eight points, while Kalia Littlejohn (3) and Lodell (2) rounded out the scorers. Sarah Wright controlled the boards all game for the Wolves.
