Tate Wyman is burning up the track, and the books.

The Coupeville High School grad, now a sophomore at Oregon Tech, finished 2nd in the 100 and 3rd in the 200 Saturday at the Nancy and Norm Berney Classic in Salem.

Wyman hit the tape in 11.44 seconds in the shorter event, and 23.04 in the longer one.

He also stacked up well against a large field of competitors, with 27 men participating in the 100 and 16 coming to the line for the 200.

Overall, Wyman picked up 14 points for the Hustlin’ Owls.

His performance at Saturday’s meet capped a stellar couple of days for the former Wolf, who was honored earlier in the week for his academic performance.

Wyman was named to both the Daktronics-NAIA Scholar-Athletes list, which honors students who have at least a 3.50 grade point average, and to the Cascade Conference All-Academic team.

You can start calling him Tate the Great.

Tate Wyman probably ate his Wheaties.

Fueled by something, the Coupeville grad had a stellar day Saturday while competing as a collegiate track and field athlete.

Wyman, now a sophomore at Oregon Tech, set two PRs, and narrowly missed a third, while vying at the Cal Poly Humboldt Invitational in Arcata, California.

The former Wolf ace claimed 4th place in the long jump, traveling 21 feet, eight inches through the air — nearly five inches better than his previous top performance.

He also finished 10th in the 100 in 11.31 seconds — almost a full second better than his previous PR — and hit the tape in 11th in the 200 in 23.03.

Wyman’s best mark in the last of those events is 22.94.

Ayden and Devon’s older brother was a standout track and cross country runner during his CHS days, helping the Wolves finish 2nd in the 4 x 100 at the state championships during his senior season.
