Coupeville Sports

We’re a week or two into year four of the 1A Olympic League and one thing remains consistent — it’s still a two-team race.

Klahowya, the biggest of the league’s four schools by far, and Coupeville, its smallest, are the heavyweights.

Port Townsend and Chimacum? With a couple of exceptions, cannon fodder.

Take 10 of the 11 varsity sports Coupeville fields a team in (we skip track, since team records are a moot point) and the win totals from 2014 to spring 2017 are:

Klahowya – 145
Coupeville – 133
Chimacum – 74
Port Townsend – 70

After the Eagles were top dogs the first two years, Coupeville (which has raised its win total each year) took the crown in 2016-2017.

As of end of play Saturday night, the early fall totals have Klahowya clinging to a 4-3 lead on Coupeville, while the other schools have yet to notch a league win.

Counting non-conference games, the Wolves (8-6) and Eagles (8-5) are tied (with Coupeville the only school to have at least one victory in each sport).

Meanwhile Port Townsend (1-9) is taking a major hit in its biggest sport, football, while Chimacum (2-8), is struggling in everything except football.
