Coupeville’s best beat the big boys (and girls).

Competing at the Seattle Academy Relays in Shoreline Saturday (which, despite the title, included other events besides just relays), Wolf senior thrower Nick Streubel and sophomore sprinter Makana Stone each won an individual title.

Even better, they both set PR’s to do it.

Streubel launched the shot put 45 feet, nine and a half inches, almost an inch and a half further than his previous best, and a solid four inches ahead of his nearest competitor.

Stone cruised to a win in the 400 in 1:01.46, out-leaning the number two runner by more than a full second. Her fastest time in the event coming in to the meet was 62.11.

Coupeville’s best showing in the relay events — which the meet was named for — came in the girls’ 4 x 100, where the quarter of Sylvia Hurlburt, Lauren Grove, Nene Maxie and Marisa Etzell claimed second.

The meet drew eight boys’ teams and nine girls’ teams, with 3A Schorecrest taking both team titles. The Wolves, repping the smallest 1A school in the state, finished 3rd and 5th, respectively.

All your records will belong to Lathom Kelley!!

Lathom Kelley wants to erase Mitch Pelroy from the record books, and Pelroy couldn’t be happier.

Now playing football at Montana Western, Pelroy was a three-sport stud during his days at Coupeville High School, playing football, basketball and track and his name is still up on the big board in the CHS gym for his running exploits.

His time of 22.84 stands as the school record in the 200.

Now Kelley, a speedy sophomore who has taken great leaps in the weight room in off-season workouts, is coming hard for Pelroy’s status as top dog in the sprints.

He ran a 23.85 in the season-opening Whidbey Island Jamboree Thursday (his best as a freshman was 24.93), finishing just off of meet winner Dejon Devroe of host Oak Harbor.

Not bad for a guy from the smallest 1A school in the state going head-to-head with a dude from a bigger 3A school.

Now Kelley wants more.

“Sorry Mitch, but my goal is to take your name off that board. With only good intentions though,” Kelley said.

Pelroy, a proud alumni, welcomed the spirit of his successor.

“Oh, I know you will take it off man,” Pelroy said. “I hope you get it soon!”

The exchange warmed the heart of CHS football/basketball coach Dustin Van Velkinburgh, a guy who can still get from one place to another pretty quickly himself.

“I love it when alumni encourage current athletes. Sign that things are changing around here,” Van Velkinburgh said. “Keep up the amazing work Mitch and Lathom. I couldn’t be more proud of the both of you.”

The most dominant track athlete on Whidbey Island is back, and she hasn’t lost a step.

Spoiler: she won both races.

Sprinting to wins in the 200 and 400, Stone beat runners from 1A South Whidbey, 2A Lakewood and 3A Oak Harbor.

And thus it begins!!

Cue the rain. Cue the wind. It’s time for spring sports on Whidbey.

Did you really think the gentle, balmy, blue sky-drenched weather that we’ve seen the last week would last into the start of the actual seasons?

Oh, you sad, sad fool…

Well, weather or not, the 2014 spring sports season — the last one for Coupeville High School in the 1A/2A Cascade Conference — officially kicks off today, when the Wolf boys’ soccer squad hosts a jamboree (2 PM) at Micky Clark Field.

Lake Stevens and South Whidbey are in town, the event officially puts a stamp on Kyle Nelson’s hiring as Wolf coach (replacing the retired legend, Paul Mendes), and it will go on, regardless of weather.

Soccer doesn’t stop for anything short of a hurricane, and then it depends on what category of hurricane we’re talking about.

The lone CHS golfer, two-time state meet qualifier Christine Fields, was actually supposed to kick off the new season Friday, but excess rain caused a scheduled match at Useless Bay Golf and Country Club between South Whidbey, Overlake and the Lone Wolf to be postponed.

Monday, weather permitting, the season will move into being a full-on reality, with baseball traveling to South Whidbey, softball hopping across to Port Townsend and girls’ tennis welcoming Port Townsend to town.

Tuesday, Friday Harbor comes to Coupeville for soccer and tennis, Fields and her Falcon traveling mates go to Bush and softball squares off at home with arch-rival South Whidbey and its new coach.

Get your bets in now. How many games will be postponed and rescheduled due to weather in ’14?

I’m saying 71, and I feel pretty confident in that number.
