It’s a donnybrook, and we’re only (almost) a third of the way into the fight.
With regular season play done for volleyball, soccer and tennis, and just one more week of football left, year #4 of the Olympic League is again a two-team tussle.
Klahowya, the second-biggest 1A school in the state, and Coupeville, the sixth-smallest, are all but tied as we begin to make the turn and look ahead to basketball season.
The Eagles hold a narrow 21-20 lead on the Wolves, when varsity wins across those four sports are totaled up.
Meanwhile, way in the back, Port Townsend sits with seven victories and Chimacum four.
Coupeville volleyball and Klahowya soccer, which both went 9-0 in conference action, winning their second and fourth consecutive titles, respectively, were the cream of the crop.
With both tennis squads tying with four wins apiece, the edge has come down to football, where the Wolves have been hammered by the worst spate of season-ending injuries in several decades.
KSS is not only much healthier, but gets the better draw in the season’s final game next week, traveling to Chimacum, while CHS visits state-ranked Cascade Christian.
However those games break down, one thing is certain — the battle for league supremacy remains truly a battle as we head into the second of three legs.
