The calendar is shrinking and the competition is getting tougher.

There are two regular-season track meets left for Coupeville High School athletes — including a home one with Lopez and Friday Harbor Monday (3:15 PM) — before the postseason takes everyone’s focus.

As of Sunday morning, eight Wolves have posted one of the top 10 performances in 1A this season.

Sophomore Lindsey Roberts leads the way, with her name popping up three times, once in an individual event and twice as part of relay teams.

Fellow state meet vet Jacob Smith, a junior, is the lone Wolf to appear in two different individual events.

The Top 10 CHS performances (valid as of 10:42 AM Sunday):

Girls:

100 Hurdles — Lindsey Roberts (7th) 16.30

4 x 100 Relay — Lauren Grove, Roberts, Maya Toomey-Stout, Mallory Kortuem (10th) 52.17

4 x 200 Relay — Grove, Kortuem, Roberts, Toomey-Stout (7th) 1:50.23

Hey, big city folks, Jacob Smith is fast.

The Coupeville High School junior stared down a field packed with 2A and 3A runners Saturday at the 7th annual Lil’ Norway Invitational in Poulsbo and left them choking on his exhaust.

Beating 29 other runners, he zipped to a win in the 100, then came within .37 of a second of adding a victory in the 200.

Smith’s rapid runs (his 4 x 100 relay team also claimed 2nd) and a 2nd in the triple jump by Mitchell Carroll propelled the Wolf boys to a 4th place finish (out of 19 teams), the best showing by a 1A school.

The Coupeville girls, led by second-place finishes in the 100 hurdles (Lindsey Roberts) and 4 x 100 relay, finished 7th.

Like the boys team, the girls had the best showing of any of the six 1A schools in attendance at North Kitsap High School.

The meet also drew one 3A school, eight 2A schools and four B schools.

North Kitsap won the boys team title, while Port Angeles topped the girls race. Both are 2A schools.

Coupeville’s tent wasn’t as full as normal, as each school was limited to two athletes (and one relay team) per event.

Jacob Smith made his move.

Running a very strong race at the Cashmere Invitational Saturday, the Coupeville High School junior propelled himself into the Top 10 for boys who have run the 100 in 1A this season.

He’s the only Wolf to appear on the leaders list in two individual races, while sophomore Lindsey Roberts (100 hurdles and two relays) shows up three times total.

With Danny Conlisk sliding back in to the Top 10 in the 400 (he won his race at Cashmere), CHS has eight athletes currently among the very best in their classification.

Girls:

100 Hurdles — Lindsey Roberts (5th) 16.30

It was an epic journey, but worth it.

Traveling more than 300 miles round trip, the Coupeville High School track and field squad joined 17 other schools at the Cashmere Invitational Saturday, and left its mark while there.

The Wolf boys, led by a win in the 400 from sophomore Danny Conlisk and second-place finishes in both the 100 and 200 from junior Jacob Smith, placed 5th.

Meanwhile, the CHS girls, who got a second-place finish from freshman Cassidy Moody in the high jump, claimed 9th overall.

While Coupeville didn’t take as many bodies along as it would have if it had just been a regular meet, the Wolves still saw 12 different athletes set PRs.

Conlisk was the only one to notch two personal records on the day, claiming PRs in both of his events, the 400 and 800.

His win in the 400, coming against a field of 23 other runners, came by .01 of a second (52.70 vs 52.71), as he out-leaned Nathan Berglund of Deer Park.
