Running away from the pack.
That’s what the Coupeville 7th grade SWISH boys’ basketball squad is currently doing, throwing down wins left and right.
The latest came Saturday as the Wolves blitzed Granite Falls 49-39.
The win lifts Coupeville to 6-1 on the season and clinches at least second place in a 15-team league.
Using a platoon system, the Wolves opened the game with its 6th graders on the floor and they ran out to an early 8-4 lead.
Then Coupeville tossed in its 7th graders and the game was soon out of reach.
Jake Mitten paced the Wolves with 14 points and 13 rebounds, while Daniel Olson knocked down 13 and Caleb Meyer tickled the twines for eight.
Logan Martin (6), Matthew Kelley (6) and Connor Barton (2) rounded out the scorers.
Kelley (5), Martin (4), Hawthorne Wolfe (4), Daniel Barajas (2) and Dakota Eck (1) helped Mitten out on the boards, while Meyer added three assists and three steals.
The Wolves have one game remaining on their regular season schedule, but have also accepted an invitation to the Washington State Middle School Championships in Spokane Mar. 11-13.
