They had themselves quite a day.
The Coupeville High School track and field team dominated Saturday at the 1A Olympic League Sub-District meet in Poulsbo.
Where to start?
At the top, where the Wolf girls ended up, and they will add a plaque to the school’s Wall of Fame.
Paced by freshman Maya Toomey-Stout and senior Skyler Lawrence, Coupeville collected five wins and 12 PRs while advancing at least 13 girls on to Districts.
With 102 points, the Wolves topped Klahowya (93), Port Townsend (50) and Chimacum (19) to reign as 1A League/Sub-District champs.
CHS finished 5th overall (out of 11 teams) in the Olympic League Championships.
That scoring system pitted the four 1A schools against the seven 2A schools which also sit under the league’s banner.
Toomey-Stout, who won the 100 and 200, while also running a leg on a victorious 4 x 200 relay team, was picked as the 1A Female Track Athlete of the Meet.
Lawrence, who claimed first in shot put and second in discus, was the 1A Female Field Athlete of the Meet.
Naika Hallam rounded out the female Wolf winners, capturing the javelin title.
On the boys side, CHS finished second in Sub-Districts, 5th in the OLC.
Port Townsend won the 1A boys title with 93 points, while Klahowya (75) narrowly edged Coupeville (74). Chimacum (19) was a distant fourth.
Ginormous 2A school North Kitsap won both team titles in the OLC tally.
The Coupeville boys were led by sprinter Jacob Smith, who was tabbed as the 1A Male Track Athlete of the Meet.
He won the 100 and 200 (a race in which his winning 1A time was better than any 2A runner) and ran a leg on a triumphant 4 x 400 unit.
Super sophomore Danny Conlisk joined Smith as a three-time winner, capturing the 400 and 800 in addition to being on the relay squad.
Ariah Bepler (High Jump) and Mitchell Carroll (Triple Jump) rounded out the Wolf boys who won league titles.
Carroll won his event by edging Port Townsend’s transcendent Seren Dances, who won three events (Long Jump, 110 Hurdles, 300 Hurdles).
Coupeville is off until May 19-20, when it clashes with the best of the Nisqually League at the District meet in Renton.
Top three finishers from Sub-Districts are guaranteed a berth at Districts, the last stop before state.
For those who finished fourth in Poulsbo, they have to wait a week until the Nisqually League holds its Sub-District meet.
With five 1A schools to the Olympic League’s four, the Nisqually is guaranteed four slots at districts.
The #4 finisher in each event from the OL will be compared to the #5 finisher in the NL, with the better time or distance getting the eighth and final slot to districts.
Coupeville had 12 fourth-place finishes, the most shocking coming in the girls 4 x 100.
That relay unit, which is ranked #9 in all of 1A, had a baton drop and scrambled to recover against teams they would have normally thrashed.
For now, CHS knows it will advance a minimum of 20 athletes (13 girls and seven boys), with six of them having qualified in three events.
