She is unflappable, untouchable, unstoppable.
Keeping her hot streak going, Coupeville High School senior Micky LeVine punched in a goal for the fifth straight game Thursday, sparking the Wolves to a 6-0 romp over visiting Chimacum in their first-ever Olympic League game.
Now 4-3-1 overall, 1-0 in league play, CHS is tied atop the four-team league with Klahowya (9-1, 1-0).
Chimacum (2-7, 1-1) and Port Townsend (1-9, 0-2) bring up the rear.
The Wolves will get an immediate chance to see how they compare to the league’s heaviest hitter when they face the Eagles on the road Saturday.
“We will learn where we are when we play Klahowya,” said a tired Coupeville coach Troy Cowan.
Cowan, who should have been celebrating the win, spent several hours post-game in the ER at Whidbey General and may have lost a second defensive leader.
Senior Jacki Ginnings is believed to have a concussion, which would be a repeat of an injury that knocked her out of action last season.
With junior Jenn Spark already lost due to a blown-out knee, the Wolf defensive unit is shrinking before Cowan’s eyes.
“Need to wait and see, but doesn’t look too promising,” he said. “Next Wolf up!”
Take away Ginnings injury and the rest of the game was a thrill ride for Coupeville.
Senior goaltender Julia Myers put Chimacum’s offense into the deep freeze, while her teammates up front went wild with their offense.
LeVine banged home her team-leading fifth goal on a penalty kick that was set up when Erin Rosenkranz had a shot knocked down by a Cowboy’s hand.
Rosenkranz found the back of the net herself, collecting her second goal of the season, while Marisa Etzell scored her first two.
Freshman Sage Renninger and Lauren Bayne rounded out the Wolf scoring attack, with each converting on the first goals of their high school careers.
