She’s shining on the big stage.
Coupeville grad Taygin Jump, now a junior at Plattsburgh State, set a PR in the weight throw Friday, earning points for the Cardinals by finishing 7th in a field of 22 competitors.
The former Wolf was competing at the State University of New York Athletic Conference (SUNYAC) Indoor Track and Field Championships in Brockport, New York.
Jump’s best throw Friday traveled 44 feet, 10.25 inches, besting her previous top mark of 44-09, set just a week ago.

The Cardinals wrap the indoor season with two more postseason meets for qualifiers — the All-Atlantic Region Track and Field Conference Championships and the NCAA D-III Championships — before moving outdoors as the weather warms.
