Split apart Thursday by the demands of the high school season, a huge chunk of the Whidbey Islanders GU18 soccer squad found themselves on opposite sides of the playing field in Oak Harbor.

In the end, the host, 3A Oak Harbor, led by goalie Perry and big scorers Vivien Valles and Jacalyn Hefflefinger, bounced 1A Coupeville 4-0 to raise its record to a perfect 2-0. The Wildcats effectively own the Island, having beaten 2A South Whidbey 1-0 earlier this season.

The Wolves, playing their first game under new coach Troy Cowan, were unable to get the ball past Perry, the mad photo bomber of the Islanders. The ‘Cats gave her a broad show of support, with four players, including two who are NOT Islanders (Faith Franssen and Jennifer Turnek) finding the back of the net.

Lauryn Plush added two assists to spark the Oak Harbor offense.

The Islanders, a select soccer team coached by Sean LeVine and Scott Rosenkranz which features players from all three Whidbey Island high schools, were well represented.

Jacki Ginnings, Erin Rosenkranz, Micky LeVine, Tori Wellman, Jennifer Spark and Julia Myers all suit up for CHS, while OHHS is repped by players such as Valles, Perry, Becca Pabona, Morgan Zylstra and former Wolf Paige Waterman.
