Figures.

Tempt the soccer gods by scheduling a non-conference game against a conference foe, and there will be some payback.

Tuesday, it came in the form of a 2-2 tie for the Coupeville High School girls’ soccer squad, the third time in seven games this season the Wolves have walked off the pitch with a draw.

The game, played at Port Townsend, pitted two 1A Olympic League opponents, but won’t count in the league standings or affect playoff positioning.

Both schools wanted to fill out their schedules and agreed to the extra game, but only the final two times the squads face — Oct. 20 at Port Townsend and Oct. 29 in Coupeville — are considered conference battles.

The tie left Coupeville at 2-2-3 on the season, while the Redhawks went to 0-5-2.

Defending 1A state champion Klahowya (6-1) and Chimacum (1-5) round out the Olympic League, with none of the teams having played an “official” league match yet.

The Wolves get a rare home game this Saturday (CHS plays nine of 15 on the road this year), and the game, set for noon, pits them against the defending Class B champs, Crosspoint Academy (2-2).

While Coupeville wasn’t able to bring home a victory Tuesday, it did hit two offensive milestones before reaching the halfway point of the season.

Freshman Kalia Littlejohn rattled home her seventh goal (she’s scored in six of seven games), beating last year’s team-high mark.

Micky LeVine capped her CHS career by scoring six times as a senior in 2014.

With Littlejohn’s score, and one from sophomore Sage Renninger (her third of the year), the Wolves have 21 goals through seven games.

That matches their total for the entire 2014 season, when they finished 6-7 overall, 3-3 in league play.
