The bats are still boppin’, but the wins have stopped coming.
For the moment, at least.
Coupeville sluggers Veronica Crownover and Sarah Wright both swung a big stick this week, but their South Whidbey Sox little league softball squad dropped both of its games.
The Sox were edged 8-5 by South Skagit Monday, then fell 10-8 to Oak Harbor Wednesday.
In the battle with the forces from the North, Wright cracked a triple and Crownover thumped an RBI double.
Both girls are eighth graders at Coupeville Middle School and were members of last year’s Central Whidbey league champs.
With most of that team having moved up to the high school, Wright, Crownover and CMS classmates Tamaki Nastali and Ema Smith are going South every day to keep on playing this season.
“All three of the teams (South Skagit, OH and our Sox) seem pretty evenly matched with new vs experienced players so this is going to be a really great competitive season,” said softball mom Kelly Crownover.
