They’re young, but dangerous.
The Coupeville High School C-Team volleyball squad continues to tear through opponents.
The Wolves, a scrappy band of freshmen coached by Krimson Rector, are 2-0 in match play, and can now add a strong showing at a tournament in Oak Harbor to their resume.
Playing in a seven-team field Saturday, Coupeville opened by winning five of six sets to capture 1st place in their pool.
The Wolves held off Kent-Meridian 26-24, 22-25, 25-20, then scorched Mount Vernon Christian 25-21, 25-19, 25-9.
“The girls got a lot of good play in,” Rector said.
A lunch break between pool play and entry into the gold bracket cooled the Wolves off a bit, and they fell in their rematch with Kent-Meridian, a large 4A school.
Coupeville walked away with 4th place in the tourney, ready to get back to pounding on opposing squads.
The Wolf C-Team plays twice this coming week, facing South Whidbey at home Tuesday, then traveling Thursday to Granite Falls.
No stats were kept for the Oak Harbor tournament.
