It was there, then it was gone, but they want to get it back.
Playing on turf in Bothell Tuesday, the Coupeville High School girls soccer squad had a close game slip away, causing the Wolves to fall 3-1 to host Cedar Park Christian.
The loss drops CHS to 1-2 in North Sound Conference play, 1-4-1 overall.
Coupeville came out strongly in the first half, with Genna Wright rifling home a goal to knot things at 1-1 headed into the break.
That tally, her second of the season, moves the Wolf sophomore into a four-way tie with Mallory Kortuem, Avalon Renninger and Lindsey Roberts atop the team scoring chart.
The Wolves scoring touch went cold after halftime, however, while Cedar Park broke through with a go-ahead goal and then an insurance score.
“We just were not able to convert on a number of chances in the second half,” said Coupeville coach Kyle Nelson.
The two teams will clash again Oct. 11 on Whidbey, and Nelson is already looking towards the match-up.
“Should be a good game when we host them later in the season.”
The Wolves, who are in the midst of a four-game road trip, return to action Saturday, when they face Mount Vernon Christian in a non-conference rumble.
After that, seven of the final eight games on the regular-season schedule are league affairs.
