Schedule? Where we’re going, we don’t need a schedule.
OK, actually we do, so everyone needs to pay attention, because the North Sound Conference just threw a wrench into this coming week’s plans.
Specifically, the changes concern Senior Night games for Coupeville High School volleyball, football, band and cheer.
The CHS home volleyball match against Sultan scheduled for Thursday, Oct. 25 has been bumped forward a night and will go down Wednesday, Oct. 24.
JV plays at 5:15, varsity at 7, and Wolf seniors Ashley Menges and Emma Smith will be honored before the varsity match.
Then, the CHS home football game against Granite Falls is leaving behind Friday Night Lights and also jumping forward a day.
The gridiron clash is now Thursday, Oct. 25, with kickoff at 7. Senior football players, cheerleaders and band members will all be honored before the game.
The changes are being made by the league because of the possibility of three football teams finishing in a tie for the fourth, and final, NSC playoff berth.
That would happen if Coupeville beats Granite and Sultan loses to league champ Cedar Park Christian.
It things play out that way, the three football teams would meet Saturday, Oct. 27, with two teams playing a half, then the winner facing off with the third team for the playoff berth.
By bumping the regular season finale from Friday to Thursday, it would give the teams an off day before the potential playoff.
Volleyball was bumped up, so Senior Nights wouldn’t conflict.
The result is the spikers will have an extra rest day before they start the district playoffs Oct. 27.
