While we wait for results to be posted online for Thursday’s middle school track meet at Langley, the final regular season performance for Coupeville, here are some snappy pics to marinate in.

Day two was all about PRs.

While the Coupeville High School track squad didn’t add any more state qualifiers Saturday during the wrap-up of the District III meet at North Mason, the Wolves did set a string of top marks.

Six of the 10 CHS athletes who competed during day two put up the best time or throw of their high school careers.

Throwers Dalton Martin (shot put) and Skyler Lawrence (discus) both finished third Saturday, missing state by a single slot.

The duo had already qualified in different events Friday, with Martin winning the discus and Lawrence beating the field in the shot put.

The two, along with Makana Stone (400) and the 4 x 100 and 4 x 200 girls’ relay squads (Stone, Marisa Etzell, Sylvia Hurlburt and Lauren Grove) will head to Cheney May 29-30.

Complete Day 2 results:

Girls:

200 — Makana Stone (4th) 27.29; Sylvia Hurlburt (5th) 27.39 *PR*; Marisa Etzell (8th) 28.49

Skyler

   Skyler Lawrence was back on the victory stand Friday, but this time she was on top of the podium after winning a district title in the shot put.

The trip to the state track meet was a lonely one for Makana Stone last year.

This year she’ll have plenty of company.

Stone, who finished second in the 400 last year as a sophomore, will be going back to Cheney for a third straight year, and this time she’ll be taking a bunch of teammates with her.

Six Wolves punched tickets to the 1A state meet with their performances Friday at districts, and there’s still a full day of competition ahead.

The two-day District III meet, held at North Mason High School, wraps up Saturday.

In day one, Wolf throwers Dalton Martin (discus) and Skyler Lawrence (shot put) won district titles, with both setting PRs with their throws.

Stone claimed second in the 400 and both of the relay teams she is running on — the 4 x 100 and 4 x 200 — finished second as well with season-best times.

She’s joined on both squads by Sylvia Hurlburt, Marisa Etzell and Lauren Grove.

Top two finishes earn a berth to state.

At the half-way point, Coupeville is fourth in the girls’ team standings and seventh in the boys.

Cascade Christian and Port Townsend hold the leads currently.

Chris Battaglia was locked in.

The Coupeville Middle School eighth grader won two events en route to four top-three finishes Wednesday at a three-team track meet in Sultan.

Battaglia swept to wins in the discus and high jump, placed third in the shot put and claimed second in the long jump — an event he picked up at the last moment because he needed something to do while waiting for his regular events.

“He had great results! Amazing athlete, some PRs … pretty good meet!,” said CMS coach Elizabeth Bitting.

Other multiple winners included Maya Toomey-Stout (100, long jump), Lindsey Roberts (100 Hurdles, 200) and Danny Conlisk (200, 1600).

Mallory Kortuem (400), Gabe Eck (100), Jasmine Nastali (long jump) and Cassidy Moody (100 hurdles) rounded out the Wolf winners, as CMS ran away with 12 titles.

Lakewood and Sultan had much deeper teams than Coupeville and used their superior depth to claim the team titles on a day when the temperature climbed to a sticky 80 degrees.

“TOLD YA!!!!!!!!”

They had the wins, and, even though they didn’t have enough places to carry the day, they put on a big show.

Despite boasting less than half the student body of league rival Klahowya, the Coupeville High School girls’ track team came dangerously close to capturing a team title at Saturday’s Sub-District meet in Bremerton.

Riding the crest of eight wins, including a sweep of the relays and sprints, the Wolves finished second to the Eagles, who used far superior depth to eke out a 97-74 win.

Port Townsend and Chimacum trailed far behind.

On the boys side, Port Townsend claimed top honors, followed by Klahowya, Chimacum and Coupeville.

Like all track meets, however, the real focus was on individual accomplishment, with top three finishers earning a berth to next weekend’s district meet, the last stop before state.

Wolves who finished fourth in their event may still live on, as well, once all the numbers come in.

If their time/throw was better than the #5 result from the Nisqually League, they will also move on.

As it stands now, Coupeville will advance eight girls and four boys in individual events, plus two relay teams.

Coupeville got two wins from zippy junior Makana Stone (200, 400) and one apiece from Sylvia Hurlburt (100), Skyler Lawrence (Shot Put), Lauren Bayne (High Jump) and Lauren Grove (Triple Jump).

The Wolves also swept the 4 x 100 and 4 x 200 (Grove, Hurlburt, Stone, Marisa Etzell), while Dalton Martin claimed Coupeville’s lone boys title in the discus.
