She throws big, she studies big.

Coupeville grad Taygin Jump, who is heading into her senior year at Plattsburgh State in New York, was named Tuesday to the Eastern Athletic Communications Association 2025-26 Academic Honor Roll.

Jump, who is majoring in Environmental Planning & Management, is a member of the Plattsburgh women’s track and field team, where she has competed in the shot put, hammer, javelin, discus, and weight throw for the Cardinals.

Jump, who is studying Environmental Planning and Management, is a thrower for the Cardinals.

She’s coming off a strong performance at the State University of New York Athletic Conference Outdoor Track and Field Championships, where she finished 5th in the javelin and set a PR in the hammer throw.

She’s a one-woman wrecking crew.
