One step backward, four steps forward.
After taking its only loss of the season to 2A Anacortes, the Coupeville High School JV volleyball squad has taken its game to a higher level.
The latest example? Thrashing host Orcas Island Saturday 25-10, 25-8, 25-20 in a non-conference bout.
The fourth-straight win for the Wolf young guns, it lifts them to a sparkling 5-1 on the season.
CHS coach Chris Smith mixed and matched lineups, playing 11 girls Saturday, and all came through with something positive for a streaking team.
Leading the way was freshman setter Maddie Georges, who doled out 17 assists, ripped nine service aces, and still found time to collect two kills and two digs.
Helping her along were big hitter Kylie Chernikoff, who piled up eight kills, and serve-masters Jaimee Masters (five aces) and Alita Blouin (four aces).
Also joining the kill parade were Jill Prince (3), Abby Mulholland (2), Taygin Jump (2), Ryanne Knoblich (1), and Anya Leavell (1).
Heidi Meyers and Jump tossed in two aces apiece, while Knoblich scraped the floor to pick up three digs, and Ivy Leedy chipped in with hustle plays.
The Wolf JV returns to action with a busy week ahead.
Coupeville hosts North Sound Conference rivals King’s Monday and Sultan Wednesday, then travels to Port Townsend Thursday for a non-league tilt.
