Coupeville Sports

Holly Craggs and Co. are hoping to play at home Tuesday and Thursday.

Mother Nature is a fickle wench.

And yet, as we head down the home stretch of the regular season in spring sports, she’s claiming that she’s going to play nice. So, probably time to get out the snow gear…

With home games every day this upcoming week, the weather forecast calls for temperatures in the 50’s, sun and clouds, and, most importantly, a 0% chance of precipitation from Sunday through Friday.

It’ll be like frickin’ summer, won’t it?!

If the weather lives up to predictions, it will offer local fans a chance to see almost all of the various Coupeville High School teams, with very little competition for your viewing eyes. Only Tuesday has multiple events scheduled and every team is home at least once, except track.

Well, and golf, but Austin and Christine Fields never get to play in Coupeville, with all of their home meets being in Langley, so we won’t count them here.

Monday offers baseball against Sultan, Tuesday has softball and girls’ tennis both hosting Lakewood, Wednesday is Senior Night for boys’ soccer against Granite Falls, Thursday has girls’ tennis against Granite Falls and Friday wraps up with Sultan back in town for baseball.

If you haven’t been out yet, this is the time.

And, if you have endured through the sideways rain, the freezing temps and the gusting prairie winds, it may make for a nice change of pace.

Me, I’m thinking about breaking out the shorts again.
