Every second counts. Every inch matters.

As the high school track and field season turns towards the homestretch, every week presents a shuffling of the top marks across the state.

That’s shown this time around, as Coupeville stars try and hold on to their places among the best athletes in the 2B classification.

For the moment, Lyla Stuurmans (800) and Cael Wilson (long jump), who were in the top 10 last Monday, get bumped. But they can get back in.

The Wolves host the Coupeville Classic Invite this Saturday, April 26, before beginning the postseason run through the league, district, and state meets.

The finish line nears, but the battle rages.

Where the Wolves sit among all 2B athletes statewide through April 21:

GIRLS:

Shot Put — Katie Marti (10th) 32-11

Pole Vault — Aleksia Jump (10th-tie) 7-00

BOYS:

400 — Preston Epp (10th) 52.48

800 — Carson Field (6th) 2:05.43

4 x 100 Relay — Marquette Cunningham, Davin Houston, Epp, Chase Anderson (9th) 45.67

4 x 400 Relay — Anderson, Blake Burrows, Cael Wilson, Epp (7th) 3:38.79

High Jump — Wilson (4th) 6-01; Houston (9th) 5-08

Pole Vault — Wilson (3rd-tie) 12-00; Axel Marshall (10th-tie) 10-06

Triple Jump — Matthew Ward (8th) 39-11

Their time on the sidelines is done.

With spring break having played out last week, Coupeville High School track and field athletes could do little more than bide their time with no new meets.

That allowed for other prep stars from across the state to slip past the Wolves in some places on the top 10 charts for 2B schools.

But now, class is back in session and Coupeville returns to competition at the Birger Solberg Invitational in Bellingham this coming Saturday.

For Wolves like Carson Field, who slipped from #1 to #4 in the 800 over the course of the past week, the chance to control their own fates is once more open.

Let the number-crunching begin anew!

For now, through April 7, here’s where CHS oval queens and kings sit among all 2B competitors:

GIRLS:

800 — Lyla Stuurmans (8th) 2:33.53

Shot Put — Katie Marti (7th) 32-08

Pole Vault — Aleksia Jump (7th-tie) 7-00

BOYS:

800 — Carson Field (4th) 2:05.85

4 x 100 Relay — Marquette Cunningham, Matthew Ward, Preston Epp, Chase Anderson (9th) 46.20

High Jump — Cael Wilson (4th) 6-00; Davin Houston (6th) 5-08

Pole Vault — Wilson (6th) 11-06; Axel Marshall (8th) 10-06

Another week in the books; another week of watching the numbers move up and down.

Every meet produces new results, as the statewide Top 10 performance list for 2B track and field athletes fluctuates.

As we sit here on Mar. 31, there are 12 Coupeville High School stars on that tally, with Cael Wilson appearing twice.

And, if state titles were given out in March instead of May, Wolf senior Carson Field would join an exclusive list, as he currently tops everyone in the 800.

But there’s still a long way to go, so check back next week, and the week after that, and so on.

For now, at this moment:

GIRLS:

800 — Lyla Stuurmans (6th) 2:33.53

Shot Put — Katie Marti (6th) 32-08

Pole Vault — Aleksia Jump (10th) 7-00

BOYS:

800 — Carson Field (1st) 2:05.85

3200 — George Spear (6th) 10:53.38

4 x 100 Relay — Marquette Cunningham, Matthew Ward, Preston Epp, Chase Anderson (7th) 46.20

High Jump — Cael Wilson (4th) 6-00; Davin Houston (6th) 5-08

Pole Vault — Wilson (5th) 11-06; Axel Marshall (7th) 10-06

Wolves storm to strong showing

Let the PRs and wins rain down.

The weather report Wednesday promised death and destruction, or at least epic-sized hail, lightning, and thunder, but the Coupeville High School track team is too quick for Mother Nature.

Putting up a strong team-wide performance in Mount Vernon, the Wolves collected 13 wins, 69 PRs and a triumph in the boys’ team standings at a 10-team meet.

The CHS male athletes, spurred on by eight victories, racked up an even 200 points to stay way ahead of runner-up Mount Vernon Christian, which finished with 126.5.

On the girls’ side of things, MVC survived a three-way battle with La Conner and Coupeville to claim the team title.

The Hurricanes amassed 158 points, with the Braves (125.5) and Wolves (114) hot on their heels.

Lyla Stuurmans (800, 1600), Cael Wilson (High Jump, Pole Vault), Katie Marti (Shot Put, Discus) and Carson Field (800, 1600) each won two events, while Preston Epp was tops in the 400 and ran a leg on a triumphant 4 x 100 relay unit.

He was joined by Marquette Cunningham, Davin Houston, and Chase Anderson on that squad.

Rounding out Coupeville’s winners were Matthew Ward (Triple Jump), Aleksia Jump (Pole Vault), and George Spear (3200).

The results left Wolf coaches suitably impressed.

“They’re in a groove,” said Bob Martin. “Great meet — fast, focused, and ahead of the storm!”

Part of Coupeville’s squad returns to action this Saturday with an appearance at the Stanwood Freshman/Sophomore Showcase, with the spotlight fully turned on the young guns.
