Six games in, it’s too close to call.
The resurgent Coupeville High School boys’ basketball squad is sitting at 3-3, a flawless 1-0 in league play and a huge part of its success is the way the Wolves spread out the scoring load.
Seniors Risen Johnson and Wiley Hesselgrave are only separated by a three-point bomb currently, and hard-charging rebounding ace Jordan Ford is coming up strongly on the outside.
The dark horse in all of this, though, is sophomore Hunter Smith.
He scored a team-high 12 on opening night, then has been in street clothes for the past five games with a back injury. Smith is expected back soon, and if he comes out shooting, might make a quick run up the scoring charts.
Unlike the Wolf girls, we don’t currently have anything more than scoring totals.
CHS coaches are in the process of getting other stats, such as rebounds, assists and steals posted to MaxPreps.com, and, when they do, we’ll update you.
For now, the Wolf boys’ varsity scoring stats:
Risen Johnson 90
Wiley Hesselgrave 87
Jordan Ford 61
Ryan Griggs 37
Gabe Wynn 26
DeAndre Mitchell 25
Hunter Smith 12
Desmond Bell 3
Jared Helmstadter 2
Dante Mitchell 2
