He made a strong first impression.

Coupeville grad Logan Martin capped a stellar freshman season of track and field at Central Washington University this weekend, claiming two 6th place finishes at the Great Northwest Athletic Conference Championships in Monmouth, Oregon.

The Wolf alumni opened the two-day event by hucking the hammer 169 feet, four inches Friday, then came back around Saturday to wing the discus 132-07.

Martin was competing in fields of 15 and 16 athletes, respectively.

The CWU men’s team finished 4th out of nine schools in the team title race, with their fab frosh scoring six points across his two events.

Western Washington University claimed both the men’s and women’s team titles, with Martin’s female teammates finishing 5th overall.

During his time at CHS, Bob and Abbie’s youngest son played tennis, soccer, basketball, and track for the Wolves.

Logan won multiple state meet medals in track, and was part of the first Coupeville boys’ basketball team to advance to the state tourney in 30+ years.

They are the unsung heroes.

If you want to pull off a successful track and field meet, you need a ton of volunteers willing to go the extra mile.

Wednesday afternoon the action was hopping as Coupeville Middle School hosted South Whidbey in the home finale, and those volunteers were the glue holding things together.

Capturing them on film was wanderin’ photo clicker John Fisken, who provides us with the pics seen above and below.

Anna Myles is a strict, but fair judge.

The weather was nice, the results nicer.

Coupeville Middle School track and field athletes took advantage of sunny skies and warm temps Wednesday, capturing 16 wins and 84 PR’s at the last home meet of the season.

The Wolves, who head to Sultan May 18, before competing in the Cascade League Championships the following week, faced off with next-door neighbor South Whidbey during Wednesday’s rumble.

The CMS boys won the 6th/7th grade battle, while the Falcons were victorious in 6th/7th girls, and both 8th grade battles.

Wolf 6th grader Tamsin Ward, continuing a torrid start to her school career, led the way with wins in the 100, shot put, and high jump.

That gives her eight victories across her first three middle school meets.

CMS 7th graders Nick Laska (Shot Put, Discus), Beckett Green (100, 200), and Shiloh Sandlin (800, Long Jump) were double winners, while Kayla Crane (800) was the lone Wolf 8th grader to nab a title.

Other Coupeville winners included 7th graders Wyatt Fitch-Marron (High Jump), Mikayla Wagner (1600), Arianna Cunningham (Discus), and Nathan Niewald (400), as well as two relay squads.

The girls 4 x 200 unit was comprised of 6th graders Hyley Farrell, Sage Stavros, Kennedy O’Neill, and Elizabeth Marshall, with the boys 4 x 1 crew featuring Laska, Niewald, Roger Merino-Martinez, and Green.

The strong performances from everyone on the roster left coaches Jon Gabelein and Amber Wyman pleased.

“The athletes seemed to prefer the warm and dry environment today after surviving last week’s cold and wet adventure,” Gabelein said.

“The improvements shown allowed a lot of them to walk away feeling proud of new PR’s instead of just sunburn.”

Wyman, who also “appreciated the warm dry weather!” praised her young athletes as well.

“Every week these athletes impress me with their hard work and dedication,” she said. “Today was no different!

“We had a few push through injuries to not let their team down,” Wyman added. “And so many that pushed themselves outside their comfort zone to try something new.

I’m so proud of this team!”
