East coast to West coast, there’s a former Wolf throwing everywhere.

Coupeville grads Taygin Jump and Logan Martin were both in action at the collegiate level Friday, with the former in New York and the latter in Oregon.

Jump, a freshman at Plattsburgh State, was at the RPI Under the Lights Invitational in Troy, where she finished seventh in the javelin (out of 22 competitors) and 8th in the hammer throw (out of 24 chuckers).

Her throws landed 83 feet, two inches, and 112-06, respectively.

Meanwhile, Martin, a Central Washington University sophomore, was busy at the Larry Byerly Invite in Clackamas, a day after competing in Spokane.

He earned fourth in a 33-man field in the hammer throw Friday, lobbing the implement 174-01.

During their CHS days, both former Wolf aces were multi-sport stars.

Jump played volleyball in addition to her track and field activities, while Martin was on tennis, basketball, and soccer squads before earning three second-place performances at the state track meet his senior season.

He was ready for the spotlight.

Coupeville grad Logan Martin, now a sophomore at Central Washington University, won the hammer throw Thursday at the Whitworth Twilight meet in Spokane, crushing his foes.

The former Wolf chucked the implement 179 feet, which put him way ahead of runner-up Cody Wheeler of Whitworth, who notched a throw of 156-01.

In all, Martin bested a field of 15 athletes.

He also competed in the discus at Thursday’s meet, earning sixth place (out of 20 throwers), chucking it 135-01.

Martin, a four-sport star during his CHS days, will get right back at it Friday, when he travels to Portland to throw the hammer in the Larry Byerly L & C Invite.

Logan Martin, living up to the hype.

Logan Martin didn’t have much down time Friday.

The Coupeville grad, now a sophomore at Central Washington University, threw in three events at the John Knight Twilight meet in Monmouth, Oregon.

Martin’s best showing came in his premier event, the hammer throw, where he placed second out of 16 competitors, launching the implement 173 feet, one inch.

He was nearly two feet ahead of the third-place chucker, and hot on the heels of eventual winner Donaven Humphries of Clackamas College.

While the hammer is where Martin wows the audience, he also competes in the shot put and discus, and placed in the top half of the field in both events in Oregon.

The former Wolf finished 11th (out of 23 throwers) in the shot put with a heave of 40-07.75 and 12th in the discus (out of 24 hurlers), with his throw plummeting back to Earth at the 120-09 mark.

His performance Friday continues a life-long odyssey of being really, really good at athletic pursuits, as Martin played soccer, tennis, and basketball in addition to track and field during his CHS days.

Central Washington is next scheduled to compete April 11 at the Whitworth Twilight meet in Spokane.

Logan Martin traveled across the USA, then threw the hammer almost all the way back.

The Coupeville grad, now a sophomore at Central Washington University, earned 2nd place (out of 38 competitors) Friday at the Bobcat Invitational in San Marcos.

Operating at the Texas State Track and Field Complex, Martin chucked his implement 177 feet, three inches.

That was a season best showing for the former Wolf and left him nearly eight feet in front of the third-best thrower.

Matt Thomas of Grand Valley State won, launching the eighth-best throw (200-01) in NCAA D-II action this spring.

During his time in Cow Town, Martin was a standout soccer, tennis, and basketball player, who earned three 2nd place medals at state championship events during his senior season of track and field.

Central Washington returns to action April 5 at the John Knight Twilight meet in Monmouth, Oregon.

They’ve gone to a higher level but are still making headlines.

Three Coupeville High School grads pulled on college athletic uniforms Saturday, continuing to provide an inspiration to current Wolves.

From track meets to rowing regattas, here’s what they were up to:

Logan Martin:

Now a sophomore at Central Washington University, he was busy throwing things far away at the Oregon Preview in Eugene.

Martin opened with a strong sixth place finish in the hammer throw (out of 15 competitors) Friday.

His throw landed 173 feet, one inch away from where he let it go.

Saturday, Martin was back at it, launching the shot put 42-01.25 to claim 12th place.

Lucy Sandahl:

The former Wolf celebrated Senior Day with four fellow Seattle Pacific University rowing teammates at the Falcon Regatta.

Facing off with the University of Washington and the top two NCAA D-II teams — the University of Central Oklahoma and Cal Poly Humboldt — on the L.W. Ship Canal, the Falcons more than held their own.

Sandahl was the coxswain in two boats, guiding her 4+ boat to a win and her 8+ boat to a second-place finish.
