Girl sprinters produced most of the highlights for the Coupeville High School track team at the subdistrict meet in Bremerton Saturday, May 16.

The female runners, however, weren’t the only stars, as the Wolves gathered nine first-places.

The top three finishers in each event will represent the Olympic League at the district meet at North Mason High School at 3:30 p.m. Friday, May 22, and 10 a.m. Saturday, May 23.

The first two finishers at district will qualify for the state meet.

“It was a great track meet, drama and perseverance, highs and lows,” Coupeville coach Randy King said. “Our students represented our school in a classy manner. Proud of all.”

Makana Stone took part in four of the wins at subdistrict. She captured the 200 meters (26.97) and 400 meters (1:00.69) and ran on the winning 4×100 (52.14) and 4×200 (1:49.93) relay teams with Lauren Grove, Sylvia Hurlburt and Marisa Etzell.

Hurlburt also won the 100 (13.34) and was second in the 200 (27.57). Grove finished first in the triple jump (27-03.5) and fourth in the 100 (14.24). Etzell completed a 1-2-3 effort by the Wolves in the 200 by finishing third (28.28).

Skyler Lawrence was first in the shot put (29-07.75), second in the discus (86-11) and fourth in the javelin (74-07).

Lauren Bayne won the high jump (4-04) and ran third in the 3,200 (13:10.19).

Abby Parker took third in the 800 (2:47.27) and seventh in the javelin (63-07), and Naika Hallam was third in the javelin (78-11) and seventh in the shot put (20-03.25).

Delany Armstrong placed in three events, nabbing sixth in the discus (49-05), seventh in the 100 (15.46) and eighth in the 200 (32.24).

Alexxis Otto was fourth in the discus (74-11) and fifth in the shot put (24-01), while Allison Wenzel took sixth in the javelin (71-03).

As a team, the Coupeville girls finished second in the meet with 74 points. Klahowya was first with 97, while Port Townsend finished with 45 and Chimacum 23.

“Sylvia Hurlburt ran her fastest 100 meters of the year as did Makana in the 200,” King said. “Both of them rocketed out at the start of their wins and finished where they started.”

Bayne also set a personal recored in the 3,200, dropping 16 seconds, King said.

“Skyler Lawrence has really been consistent in improving on her throws and we were excited for her championship on Saturday,” King added. “She threw a season best in the discus but has gone another 20 feet further in practice, so we hope to see that next week.

“Naika Hallam, in her first year of track and field, qualified in the javelin, which is a nice accomplishment as well.”

The Coupeville boys were led by Dalton Martin, who won the discus (133-05) and placed second in the shot put (39).

Connor Thompson finished second twice (high jump, 5-04; triple jump, 37-08).

Jesse Hester, Jared Helmstadter and Jacob Smith each placed twice. Hester ran third in the 110 hurdles (22.83) and fourth in the 300 hurdles (51.74); Helmstadter finished third in the 200 (24.18) and fifth in the 100 (12.07); and Smith was seventh in both the 100 (12.25) and 200 (25.24).

Mitchell Losey claimed fifth (115) and Grey Rische eighth (97-09) in the javelin.

Lathom Kelley, who holds one of the state’s top 1A times in the 300 hurdles, injured his hamstring in the league meet the previous week and didn’t recover enough, King said, to take part at subdistrict.

Port Townsend won the boys team title with 95 points, followed by Klahowya (82), Chimacum (34) and Coupeville (28).

“Dalton Martin has continually been improving in the discus and throwing very well,” King said. “Connor Thompson Moler had a big day in the triple jump and high jump.

“Jared Helmstadter ran his fastest 200 meters of the year to qualify for the next round as well.

“Gutsy performance in the high hurdles by Jesse Hester, who tumbled down hard (while) in second place and got up to qualify for districts, finishing third.”
