And so it begins.
Basketball is officially back today, as the first high school games tip off in the CHS gym. For the next three months or so, the sound of shoes squeaking on the hardwood will echo across the land.
Up first is a non-conference boys’ battle, as the Wolves host Meridian. JV tips at 5:15, varsity at 7.
Coupeville hits the road Tuesday for a twinbill in Langley against their longtime Island rivals, South Whidbey.
Now a non-conference affair with CHS having jumped from the 1A/2A Cascade Conference to the 1A Olympic League, that doesn’t diminish the annual rumble for bragging rights.
The Wolf girls play at 5, the boys at 6:45, with the teams respective JV squads going at opposite times.
CHS fans then get back-to-back home doubleheaders Friday and Saturday to cap the opening week of play.
Darrington hits Whidbey Friday (boys 5:15, girls 7), with Bellevue Christian visiting Saturday (girls 12:15, boys 2).
Time to lace up the high tops and let loose the dogs of war.
