Every race a new PR.

Or at least it might seem that way lately for Coupeville grad Tate Wyman, who has been ripping up the oval in the collegiate track and field world.

The former Wolf, now a sophomore at Oregon Tech, was back at work this weekend at the John Knight Twilight meet in Monmouth, Oregon.

Wyman competed in three events over two days, setting personal bests in both the 200, where he hit the tape in 22.93 seconds, and the 400 hurdles, where he clocked in at 1:01.19.

Joining his teammates, Ayden and Devon’s big bro also ran a leg on a 4 x 100 relay squad which finished in 43.43.

Tate and his associates are back in action next weekend, with the Hustlin’ Owls slated to host the Oregon Tech Invitational April 18-19.

Wyman wows ’em, again

Tate Wyman

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.

Oregon Tech returns to action April 5 with an appearance at the Jenn Boyman Invitational in McMinnville, Oregon.

“Our athletes were on fire today!”

They came, they saw, they held their own.

Competing at the 23-team Rainier Icebreaker Saturday, the Coupeville High School track and field teams put in a long day’s work.

The Wolves left the gym at 6:30 AM and didn’t get back to home base until 10 PM.

But it was worth it, said CHS coach Elizabeth Bitting.

“It was a long day with some great results.

“Not only was the sun out bright and hot but our athletes were on fire today! Lots of PRs and lots of improvements.”

The Wolves racked up 27 personal bests, with 21 athletes garnering at least one.

Freshman Ivy Rudat led the way, setting records in the 200, 400, and long jump, while Kayla Crane, Myra McDonald, Reese Wilkinson, and Lexis Drake all earned two PRs.

Overall, the CHS girls finished 10th in the team standings, while the boys were 16th. Montesano claimed both titles.

Next up for the Wolves is a home meet Wednesday, Mar. 20.

But for now, Coupeville’s track stars can take a moment to bask in the afterglow of a solid performance on a big stage.

“The experience they get from invitationals like the Rainer Icebreaker is invaluable,” Bitting said. “It was a good day!”

“A great race and day!!”

Small in numbers, but big in results.

Four of Coupeville High School’s six active cross country runners set PR’s Thursday in Langley, with two claiming especially impressive finishes.

Running at a six-team North Sound Conference meet at South Whidbey High School, Wolf senior Danny Conlisk and freshman Alana Mihill both cracked the top 10.

Mihill, who was running solo with Catherine Lhamon off the Island for the day, set a PR, while Conlisk nailed a season-best covering the 5,000 meter course.

Fellow Wolves TJ Rickner, Uriah Kastner and Chris Ruck also set personal records.

“It was a great race and day,” said Coupeville coach Natasha Bamberger.

“Danny was with the top four runners from South Whidbey throughout most of the race and had an amazing finish,” she added. “Alana a great surprise; took off after the front pack, stayed in contact, pulling herself up.

“Many coaches from other teams cheering her, the lonely Wolf girl out there today.”

Bamberger also praised senior Uriah Kastner, who was a “workhorse, passing runners on the toughest hill sections.”

Coupeville, which has its first in-school cross country program after a two-decade break, gets a chance Saturday to run with the big boys (and girls).

The Wolves are off to Lakewood High, where they’ll be joined by the Coupeville Middle School harriers, for the Nike Hole in the Wall Invitational.

That event is expected to draw in as many as 5,300 runners across 13 races.

“It will be a great day for the team,” Bamberger said. “What a stacked season of huge invitationals.

“These kids are not getting a cushy start. They are having to work for everything they get.”

 

Complete Thursday results:

 

GIRLS:

Alana Mihill (10th) 24:48.62 *PR*

 

BOYS:

Danny Conlisk (10th) 18:58.23
TJ Rickner (47th) 23:19.30 *PR*
Uriah Kastner (49th) 23:26.35 *PR*
Chris Ruck (61st) 25:23.04 *PR*
Kyle Burnett (63rd) 25:30.85

Wolf harriers chase down PR’s!!

The trail was littered with PR’s.

Running Saturday at the 14-team King’s Roller Coaster Trail Run in Shoreline, Coupeville High School’s cross country runners brought great joy to their coach.

“Super excited about the team today!,” said Natasha Bamberger. “All the way down the list Coupeville runners getting their personal bests today.

“The team has been working very hard and they are starting to see the results of their hard work pay off,” she added. “It was an exciting day! I could not be happier with their results!”

While Coupeville’s top runner, Danny Conlisk, was missing in action as he recovers from a bout with illness, two Wolf sophomore shone brightly.

Zinging across the three-mile course, Catherine Lhamon dropped nearly a minute from her previous best, while Sam Wynn shaved almost 50 seconds off his PR.

Both are putting in the work during practices, and it’s paying off big time.

“Catherine’s goal is to break 20 minutes and she is well on her way to achieving that goal,” Bamberger said. “Sam crushed his PR; this is really good for him to be hitting his PR this early in the season.

“On Thursday we were running hill repeats, and Sam missed his PR last week by three seconds,” she added. “I could tell all week he was working extra hard because he really wants that PR.

“When everyone was done with their seven hill repeats, Sam said, you know what, I’m doing an extra!!”

 

Complete results:

 

GIRLS-varsity:

Catherine Lhamon (13th) 22:02
Alana Mihill (34th) 24:34

 

BOYS-varsity:

Sam Wynn (37th) 19:39

 

BOYS-JV:

Uriah Kastner (40th) 22:53
Kyle Burnett (50th) 23:43
TJ Rickner (51st) 23:45
Chris Ruck (57th) 24:07

 

**Coupeville Middle School runners also competed in Shoreline, but times haven’t been posted due to technical issues. A separate story will run here on Coupeville Sports when times are released.**
