He holds the line.

And sometimes comes busting through it, with fire in his eyes.

Coupeville High School freshman Ryan Labrador, who celebrates a birthday today, is a rising star in the world of Wolf sports.

As a football lineman, he was rock-solid his first time around, playing both ways and getting some attention from his coaches.

Given a chance to play some extensive varsity time in the season finale against Vashon Island, Labrador erupted for three tackles.

That one-game performance shot him up the CHS charts and landed him in the top 20 for the season, indicating a bright future on the gridiron.

Now, he’s out and about this spring as a member of the Wolf track and field team.

Tossing the shot put and javelin, Labrador is well on his way to follow in the footsteps of accomplished older teammates like Dalton Martin and Grey Rische.

As he moves forward in his CHS sports career, we just want to take a moment to wish him the best. Both on, and off, the athletic stage.

Happy birthday, Ryan!

Sylvia

Sylvia Hurlburt, quick with the feet, quick with the sarcasm.

Two meets are in the books, and the Wolves are already hitting top times.

Coupeville High School’s track and field squad currently has six individuals and two relay teams in the top 10 in their events among 1A competitors.

Leading the way is the girls 4 x 100 relay unit of Lauren Grove, Sylvia Hurlburt, Lindsey Roberts and Makana Stone.

In their one outing, they broke the tape in 52.42 seconds, which is good for second-best in 1A behind a fearsome foursome from Lynden Christian.

Other Wolves currently in the top 10 in their events:

Sylvia Hurlburt — 10th in the 200 (28.02)

Lindsey Roberts — 8th in the 100 Hurdles (17.76)

Abby Parker — 2nd in the 1500 (6:15.98)

Jakobi Baumann — 2nd in the 3000 (12:37.59)

Danny Conlisk — 2nd in the 1500 (4:56.75)

Jordan Ford — 7th in the high jump (5-06)

Gabe Eck, Ford, Jacob Smith, Jared Helmstadter — 7th in 4 x 100 (46.75)

Parker and Conlisk are the only Wolves to currently also sit in the top 10 in their event when you look at all classifications (4A-1B).

Conlisk is 9th in the 1500, while Parker is 7th in the same event.

Ashlie Shank

If Ashlie Shank was less than thrilled to be on a bus at 8 AM, she hides it well.

Lindsey Roberts

  Like a cheetah erupting in pursuit of its prey, Lindsey Roberts goes from 0-60 in two steps.

Jordan Ford

  Flying down the backstretch, speedy Jordan Ford can feel the flames shooting off of his feet.

Bayne

   Lauren Bayne doesn’t actually jump over the hurdles. She just glides from start to finish, never really coming down.

A PR in every event.

Well, maybe not every event, but a lot of them for sure, as the Coupeville High School track and field squad set 26 individual marks Saturday.

Having jumped across to the mainland, camera gear in hand, travelin’ photo man John Fisken clicked away madly at the Port Angeles Invitational, and the photos above are courtesy him.

Sylvia

Mitchell Carroll

   When he wasn’t strumming his guitar, Mitchell Carroll finished 3rd in the triple jump.

The competition was deep, but Coupeville rose to the occasion.

Competing at the 13-team Port Angeles Invitational Saturday, the Wolf track team racked up 26 PRs, with an especially strong showing on the girls side of the competition.

The Wolf girls, sparked by a second-place showing in the 200 from Sylvia Hurlburt, and thirds in the 100 hurdles (Lindsey Roberts) and discus (Skyler Lawrence) placed 7th as a team.

That was the best showing by a 1A school, putting them ahead of Olympic League rivals Klahowya and Chimacum, as well as non-conference foe Forks and three 1B schools.

Sequim took the title, with the top six schools all being 2A.

On the boys side, 2A North Kitsap finished on top, while Coupeville, whose best showing was a third in the triple jump from Mitchell Carroll, placed 11th overall in the team race.

Teams were allowed to have one competitor in each varsity event, with everyone else competing as JV athletes.

Jordan Ford took home Coupeville’s lone title on the day, winning the JV long jump.
