Coupeville Sports

Samantha Martin played impressively in her doubles win.

Complete and utter domination.

That’s what the undefeated Coupeville High School girls’ tennis team (3-0) laid down on visiting Archbishop Thomas Murphy Tuesday afternoon. A good old fashioned butt-whuppin’, as it were.

The varsity swept to a 5-0 win, while the Wolves won seven of eight matches overall.

Since ATM had only seven players, the third varsity doubles match was a forfeit, then the extra player teamed with their top singles player to play doubles (ATM’s lone win) and the two doubles teams played a second match (and lost both).

Now you can say, well, ATM is in its first year of fielding a net squad. To which Wolf fans, not fond of being on the end of many, many whippings administered in many sports by the money-oozing private school, reply, cry me a river.

As the smallest public school in the Cascade Conference, we’ll take our moments. And there were plenty of them Tuesday.

1st Singles — Amanda d’Almeida beat Haley Sizelove 8-2

“This was a good match for Amanda,” said Wolf coach Ken Stange. “The wind gave her some trouble early, but she figured out how to deal with the wind from both sides of the court.”

2nd Singles — Allie Hanigan def. Dana Tran 8-0

“Allie knows that court 2 is dangerous on a windy day. She also knows how to adjust to balls that would make even the most old school knuckle-ball pitchers jealous.”

1st Doubles — Holly Craggs/Iris Ryckaert beat Taylor Herrera/Madeline Hoben 8-1

“Forrest Gump would say that Holly and Iris go together like peas and carrots.”

2nd Doubles — Ana Luvera/Mary Massengale beat Amy Camilleri/Lena Villani 8-2

“Ana’s sister Ivy couldn’t play today, so Mary made her varsity debut. She did not disappoint! They played very well today.”

3rd Doubles (Official) — Coupeville wins by default

3rd Doubles (Unofficial) — Breanna Koym/Emily Gallahar lost to Susana Bartra/Sizelove 8-3

4th Doubles — Jacki Ginnings/Micky Levine beat Herrera/Hoben 8-5

“Jacki and Micky played very well against the #1 doubles team from ATM. These two girls are so athletic and never give up on any ball. I wish I had a fraction of the reaction speed they both possess.”

5th Doubles — McKenzie Rice/Samantha Martin beat Villani/Camilleri 8-6

“Playing against the #2 doubles team from ATM, my frosh duo pulled out a close match. The season just grew more enjoyable for those two!”
