Taygin Jump ended the regular season with a bang.

The Coupeville grad, now a sophomore track and field star at Plattsburgh State, competed in three events Friday at the SLU Twilight Invite in Canton, New York, handily winning both the hammer throw and javelin toss.

Jump chucked her hammer 125 feet, five inches, finishing 21 feet, 11 inches ahead of the second-place finisher.

The former Wolf ace also claimed the title in the javelin with a heave of 95-09, this time placing exactly 22 feet ahead of her nearest rival.

The one event Jump didn’t win Friday was the discus, but she set a PR anyway, claiming fourth place (out of 11 competitors) with a throw of 82-09.

Aleksia and Khanor’s older sister, who is majoring in Environmental Planning & Management/Geology, tallied 26 points for the Cardinals, who finished second in the team standings.

Up next is the State University of New York Athletic Conference Outdoor Championships May 2-3 in Cortland, New York.

Let it fly!

Coupeville grad Taygin Jump, now a sophomore at Plattsburgh State, kept busy Saturday, competing in three events at the Middlebury Invitational in Vermont.

The former Wolf topped out with a 4th place finish in the javelin, tossing her implement 93 feet, nine inches.

Jump also chucked the hammer 101-10 and smashed her PR in the discus with a throw of 77-05.

The triple-threat performance allowed her to keep a season of success rolling along, but she’s not done yet.

Plattsburgh State is slated to be in Canton, New York next Friday, April 25 for the SLU Twilight Invite hosted by St. Lawrence University.

Jump, who is majoring in Environmental Planning & Management/Geology, was a top-notch volleyball player (school and club) and track and field athlete during her days growing up in Coupeville.

If the lights are shining, so is Taygin Jump.

The Coupeville High School grad, now a sophomore at Plattsburgh State, was back in action Friday at the RPI Friday Night Under the Lights Invitational in Troy, New York.

The track and field star accounted for five of her team’s 46 points, claiming 5th in the javelin (out of a field of 22 competitors) and 8th (of 27) in the hammer throw.

Jump set a collegiate PR in the latter event, flinging her implement 127 feet, five inches, while launching the javelin a solid 95-09.

A stellar multi-sport athlete who participated in volleyball and track back in her CHS days, the former Wolf is majoring in Environmental Planning and Management/Geology.

Plattsburgh State athletes will be back in action next weekend with two meets.

She’s off to a roaring start.

Coupeville grad Taygin Jump, now a sophomore at Plattsburgh State, opened the outdoor track and field season Friday by flinging her javelin into the wild blue yonder.

When the implement came crashing back down to Earth at the Hamilton Outdoor Invitational in Clinton, New York, the former Wolf had a PR of 103 feet, eight inches, good for 2nd place in a 14-woman field.

Jump joined teammates Marissa LeDuc (Long Jump) and Isabella Scott (400), as well as Plattsburgh’s 4 x 100 relay squad in claiming runner-up finishes in the opener.

When she’s not chucking things at track meets, or pursuing her well-documented love of rocks, Aleksia and Khanor’s older sibling is pursuing a degree in Environmental Planning & Management/Geology.

Plattsburgh track and field returns to action April 11 at the “RPI Friday Night Under the Lights” in Troy, New York.
