He’ll rest tomorrow.

Coupeville grad Tate Wyman had a busy, and productive Friday, competing in three track and field events almost at the same time at the Cascade Collegiate Conference Outdoor Championships.

Wyman, now a sophomore at Oregon Tech, bounced between the 4 x 100 relay, the long jump, and the 110 hurdles while vying at Southern Oregon University in Ashland.

Literally.

The former Wolf ran in the relay, zipped over and did two jumps, rambled off to run the hurdles, then returned to finish his field event.

And how did he do while ping-ponging around?

Pretty dang good, as Wyman nabbed three top five finishes and two PRs before he was done.

Ayden and Devon’s big bro finished 3rd in the long jump, sailing 22 feet, 5.75 inches, beating his previous collegiate best.

He also set a PR in the hurdles, claiming 4th in 15.75 seconds, while running a leg on a relay team which earned 5th in 42.31.

The oldest of the Wyman siblings is continuing a run of excellence, as he was a top cross country runner and track athlete before graduating in 2023 from Coupeville High School.

You can start calling him Tate the Great.

Saturday was a standout day for Coupeville grad Tate Wyman, now a sophomore track and field athlete plying his trade a state away.

Competing on his home turf at the Oregon Tech Invitational in Klamath Falls, the former Wolf put in his strongest performance of the season, winning two of three events he vied in.

Wyman soared 21 feet, eight inches in the long jump, setting a PR and finishing an impressive eight inches better than anyone else in the field.

He also ran a leg on a triumphant 4 x 100 relay unit which set a season best at 42.66 seconds, before finishing the day as part of a 4 x 400 squad which hit the tape in 3:38.27, earning 5th.

Coming off today’s home meet, the Hustlin’ Owls are slated to be back in action next Saturday, April 26, traveling to Salem, Oregon for the Berney Classic.

Busy day, successful day.

Coupeville grad Tate Wyman, now a sophomore at Oregon Tech, was back in action Saturday, competing in the EOU Last Chance Meet in La Grande.

It was his first action in three weeks, as several indoor track and field meets were erased recently by bad weather.

Wyman competed in three events Saturday at the meet hosted by Eastern Oregon University, setting PRs in two, and narrowly missing in the third.

His best finish was a second-place performance in the 60-meter race, where he hit the tape in 9.08 seconds, a hair off his college PR of 9.10.

The former Wolf also earned third in the long jump (21-03.25) and sixth in the 400 (53.51), nailing down his best-ever collegiate marks in both events.

Wyman, whose younger sisters Ayden and Devon are following in his fast footsteps at CHS, competed in cross country and track and field during his Cow Town days, earning a second-place state meet medal in the 4 x 100 as a senior.

She survived and thrived.

Coupeville High School junior Lyla Stuurmans closed out the two-day heptathlon at the Washington State Combined Events Championship Saturday, adding another PR in the javelin as she topped or tied her best career mark in four of seven events.

Her heave went 61 feet, four inches, while she also flew 14-01 in the long jump and hit the tape in the 800 in two minutes, 34.29 seconds, which was a season-best.

Stuurmans claimed 5th in the 800, her top finish in any event at the prestigious showdown at Lake Stevens High School.

The championships drew 32 competitors from across all classifications (4A-1B), with Rochelle Jeffries of Foster making off with the heptathlon crown.

Saturday’s finale came on the heels of Friday’s opener, in which Stuurmans competed in the 200, the shot put, the high jump, and the 100 hurdles.

She’s the second Wolf in as many years to qualify for the championships, as Aidan Wilson competed in the decathlon in 2023.

We’re in double digits.

Coupeville senior Alex Murdy became the 10th track and field state champion in school history Friday, smashing his PR as he sailed to a win in the long jump at the 2B championships in Yakima.

The mad dog of the basketball court splashed down with a jump of 20 feet, 11 inches, beating his previous top mark by a stunning eight inches.

Murdy finished an inch-and-a-half in front of runner-up Tony Belgiorno of Morton-White Pass.

The duo were well ahead of the 16-man field, with Stephen Pittman of Goldendale earning 3rd place with a jump of 20-02.50.

Murdy, who is in his first full season of track at CHS, topped 19 feet six times this season, but didn’t break 20 feet until the final two meets of his prep career.

He won a bi-district title May 13 in Coupeville with a jump of 20-03.

With his victory Friday, Murdy joins Wolf alumni Jeff Fielding, Natasha Bamberger, Amy Mouw, Jon Chittim, Kyle King, Chris Hutchinson, Steven McDonald, Tyler King, and Danny Conlisk as a state champ.

He is the first to win in a field event, with all previous Coupeville championships coming in running events.

Overall, CHS athletes have won 19 state titles — 17 in track and two in cross country.
