One meet left, with one giant stage on which to shine.

Coupeville High School track and field athletes head to Yakima this week for the 2B state championships, which go down May 25-27.

Counting alternates for two relay squads, 22 Wolves will be on the bus as the wheels go round and round during the cross-state trek.

A number of those CHS track stars feature in our final look at the top 10 performances in 2B this season, while some do not.

While Coupeville had this past weekend off, other schools across the state wrapped up their own district, bi-district, and tri-district meets, and now the numbers are set in stone.

But again, as you scan the numbers below, a reminder that you can be in the top 10 and NOT go to state, while you can also be state-bound and NOT be on this list.

Track and field, forever tricky and full of intrigue.

Where CHS athletes rank among 2B competitors through May 22:

GIRLS:

100 — Monroe Myles (10th) 13.28

200 — Myles (7th) 27.17

400 — Lyla Stuurmans (7th) 1:03.60

Zip to the tape

One meet left to go, and it’s the big one.

Coming off of a sweep of the team titles at Saturday’s District 1/2 Track and Field Championships, Coupeville High School athletes now have their eyes set firmly on the state meet in Yakima.

Counting alternates for two relay teams, CHS coaches expect to pack 22 Wolves into a school bus, with the big dance playing out May 25-27.

With its body of work fully displayed, Coupeville boasts a fair number of athletes in the top 10 among students from 2B schools.

Though, thanks to the cutthroat nature of high school track and field, a couple of those top 10 performances didn’t translate to state meet berths for the Wolves or athletes from rival teams.

Only the winner of each event at Bi-Districts advanced, and several duels Saturday featured multiple contenders throw down stellar performances at the exact same time.

One example is the 1600, where CHS senior Mitchell Hall PR’d and delivered the 9th best performance in 2B this season, while Northwest Christian’s Asher Ingram hit the tape less than a second ahead of him.

You have to earn the right to advance as well, which is why Wolf junior Nick Guay is not state-bound in the high jump, despite having the 6th best mark in the event.

He didn’t compete at the bi-district meet, which left the door open for teammate Dominic Coffman (9th best in 2B) to claim a title, and a trip to state.

Or there’s the case of Coupeville senior Taygin Jump, who is #3 in 2B in the hammer throw.

Unfortunately, the event is not part of the state meet, denying her a chance to let it rip on the big stage.

And, in one final quirk, the CHS girls 4 x 400 relay team is ranked #4 in 2B, but when the Wolves won a bi-district title and punched their ticket to state Saturday, they did so with a different, and slightly slower, lineup.

Wolves reachin’ for that top mark

We’re entering the stretch run, where every second and every inch counts big-time.

High school track and field enters the postseason this week, with Coupeville traveling to La Conner Wednesday for the Northwest 2B/1B League Championships.

After that, depending on performance, is districts and the state meet.

That means, across the state, every track athlete is gunning to throw down PR’s, which creates near-constant movement on the top 10 charts.

Coming off of strong work at Saturday’s Sunny and 70s Invitational, seniors Claire Mayne and Tate Wyman hurdle their way back into the mix for a top spot.

Also jumping onto a top 10 chart is fellow 12th grader Taygin Jump, who made her debut in the hammer throw an auspicious one.

At the same time, several Wolves who sat out Saturday’s meet find themselves bumped off the list, for the moment at least.

And, in a side note, there’s the case of sophomore Katie Marti, currently ranked #10 in the javelin with a throw of 98 feet, 10 inches.

Paul Messner’s granddaughter also has a throw of 100-04, which came at the one-team Coupeville Classic Invitational.

While listed as Marti’s PR, that lob has not been acknowledged as an official mark yet, however, because of complicated regulations on how results are reported, and what is considered “official” and “unofficial.”

With that in mind, a look at where the Wolves rank state-wide among 2B athletes as of May 1:

GIRLS:

400 — Lyla Stuurmans (6th) 1:03.76

100 Hurdles — Claire Mayne (9th) 17.96

4 x 400 Relay — Stuurmans, Ryanne Knoblich, Mayne, Carly Burt (6th) 4:37.74

Shot Put — Carolyn Lhamon (4th) 33-09

Javelin — Katie Marti (10th) 98-10

High Jump — Knoblich (6th) 4-10

Hammer Throw — Taygin Jump (3rd) 56-08

BOYS:

400 — Aidan Wilson (6th) 53.08

800 — Wilson (2nd) 2:01.22

110 Hurdles — Tate Wyman (8th) 16.99

4 x 100 Relay — Nick Guay, Wyman, Wilson, Dominic Coffman (2nd) 45.37

4 x 400 Relay — Guay, Mitchell Hall, Hank Milnes, Wilson (10th) 3:42.76

Discus — Zac Tackett (10th) 127-05

High Jump — Guay (7th) 5-11; Coffman (8th) 5-10

Long Jump — Alex Murdy (5th) 19-11.75

Triple Jump — Wilson (5th) 40-08.75

Every second counts, every inch matters.

As we wind our way towards May, the number of regular season track and field meets dwindle, with the onset of the postseason just on the horizon.

Taking our weekly look at how Coupeville High School athletes stack up against other 2B stars, we have movement from last Monday.

A scan of the top 10 marks in each event show the Wolves going upwards four times, with sophomore Katie Marti jumping back into the elite in the javelin.

Aidan Wilson (400) and both 4 x 400 relay squads are also trending up after strong showings at the GearUp Eason Invitational, while CHS remains in the top 10 in 13 of the other 15 events it previously occupied.

And for those two guys (briefly) bumped from the list by newcomers — Nick Guay in the 200 and Tate Wyman in the 300 hurdles?

Both remain in the top 10 in other events, plus have a chance to compete again Saturday, April 29, when the Wolves attend the Sunny and 70’s Invitational in Lakewood.

Where CHS ranks in 2B as of April 24:

GIRLS:

100 — Monroe Myles (10th) 13.52

400 — Lyla Stuurmans (4th) 1:03.83

4 x 400 Relay — Claire Mayne, Carly Burt, Ayden Wyman, Aleera Kent (4th) 4:38.96

Shot Put — Carolyn Lhamon (3rd) 33-09

Discus — Lhamon (10th) 97-08

Javelin — Katie Marti (9th) 98-10

High Jump — Ryanne Knoblich (6th) 4-10

BOYS:

100 — Tim Ursu (9th) 11.64

400 — Aidan Wilson (6th) 53.08
