“Faster they run, faster they’re done!!”

Carolyn Lhamon came from behind to win the 800.

“The CMS Wolves ran like the Sequim wind.”

Coupeville Middle School track coaches Elizabeth Bitting, Jon Gabelein and Larry Hurlburt have put a lot of time and effort into teaching their young athletes, and it’s paying off big time.

Competing in the final regular-season meet Tuesday, a three-team rumble with Forks and host Sequim, CMS threw down multiple PR’s and captivated their coaches.

“The boys and girls threw further, jumped higher, ran faster, and/or jumped farther than ever before,” Gabelein said. “Our athletes continue to refine their craft.

“I wish there were several more weeks left for them to enjoy the results of hard work during outings like this.”

The Wolves host the Olympic League Championships May 23, an event which brings together the six conference schools for the final time.

And it’s not just a season-capper, but a farewell, as Coupeville jumps to the new North Sound Conference next fall for both high school and middle school sports.

Tuesday’s meet included big moments for both individuals, such as Carolyn Lhamon passing the leader in the final steps to win the 800, and for teams.

Both of Coupeville’s girls relay teams shattered their season-best times.

“With so many PR’s, improvement is being generated team-wide,” Gabelein said. “They may be discovering that the faster they run, the faster they’re done.”

   Wolves (l to r) Lindsey Roberts, Lucy Sandahl (in front), Natalie Hollrigel, Mallory Kortuem and Maya Toomey-Stout will compete in multiple events.

The wait was worth it.

After competing in the Olympic League finals, the Coupeville High School track and field squad had to wait a full week to see what the Nisqually League could throw down.

The two leagues link up May 18-19 for the West Central District 3 Championships, the final meet before state, and several Wolves were on pins and needles.

Those who finished in the top three at the OL meet knew they were district-bound, but those who finished #4 had to wait, as their times or distances would be compared against the NL #5 finisher.

With the NL meet wrapping up Saturday, the news is great for Wolf Nation, as all 10 of Coupeville’s #4’s top their NL counterparts.

All total, 26 Wolves (14 girls, 12 boys) are headed to districts, with the CHS girls represented in 17 events and the boys planning to compete in 14 events.

The top two finishers in each event at districts advance to the state meet in Cheney May 25-26.

Leaps, bounds and (camera) snaps!!

It takes a village.

Coupeville Middle School pulled off a successful home track meet Tuesday, with a little help from parents, coaches, athletes (MS and HS), fans and local paparazzi.

The camera clicker wandering the fringes, firing away, was John Fisken, and the pics above are courtesy him.

Young guns claim the track!!

   “And never come back!” Jordyn Rogers heaves the shot put to somewhere up around Oak Harbor.

Elizabeth Bitting was a tired, but very happy, coach Tuesday night.

With a lot of help, she and her Coupeville Middle School track and field team pulled off a very successful home meet that played out under sunny skies.

The Wolves hosted Chimacum and Blue Heron and other than a few hiccups in running the hurdles, things went pretty peachy.

“The day went well,” Bitting said. “We had teachers, parents, high school coaches and high school athletes volunteer. ALL were amazing!!!

“I had many comments as to how professional they were and how the high school athletes took command of their events,” she added. “It was great seeing (CHS coach) Randy King step in as our starter!”

For her young athletes to compete on the same track as the high school stars do, and enjoy a still fairly brand-new set-up, is something for which Bitting is very grateful.

“Middle school had some PR’s; all had great attitudes! Lots of smiles!,” she said. “I think they were happy to be able to run on their track and have friends and family watch and cheer them on!”

Rip the track up!!

Posted in Track, tagged , , , , on May 6, 2018| 1 Comment »

If you bought early on Jacob Smith stock, it’s about to pay off.

The Coupeville High School senior is getting quicker as the season winds down, and, with his performance Friday at the Olympic League Finals, he’s positioned himself as a legitimate state title contender.

Smith, who shattered a 31-year-old school record in the 100, is the second-fastest male runner in all of 1A in the event.

Add the 200, where he sits as the third-fastest, and the 4 x 100, where he and his teammates are in 7th place, and he’s on target to have a busy time in Cheney at the end of May.

Smith, who has two state meet medals to his credit, has a chance to join elite company if he makes it to state and does well.

Only 21 Wolf track and field stars have won three or more medals during their career and only eight have gone as high as five.

Coupeville junior hurdler Lindsey Roberts, who has also been a top 10 fixture all season, has four medals.

One more and she joins Makana Stone (7), Natasha Bamberger (6) and Yashmeen Knox (5) as the only CHS girls in the Five-Timers Club.

For the moment, though, the Wolves sit a little under two weeks until districts, and three from state. While they train, all they can do is watch the rankings.

While the Olympic League meet is in the books, other conferences haven’t run their events yet. So, expect a little shuffling in the Top 10 lists, even at the top.

But, at this exact moment, 8:31 AM, Sunday, May 6, here’s how Coupeville stacks up against the best of 1A:

 

Girls:

100 Hurdles — Lindsey Roberts (7th) 15.82 *Same position on charts*

 

Boys:

100 — Jacob Smith (2nd) 11.12 *Up three slots*

200 — Smith (3rd) 22.87 *Up one slot*

4 x 100 — Jean Lund-Olsen, Cameron Toomey-Stout, Sean Toomey-Stout, Smith (7th) 45.01 *Down one slot*

High Jump — Ariah Bepler (3rd) 6-02 *Up one slot**
