No more bus trips.
Wrapping up the road portion of their schedule, the Coupeville Middle School boys basketball teams swept a pair of games Monday while playing in Everett.
With the wins over Northshore Christian Academy, the Wolves have played five of seven games away from Whidbey.
Now, they get to close out the season with a three-game home stand, starting with a tussle Wednesday against Sultan.
After that comes match-ups with Langley (Dec. 16) and Granite Falls (Dec. 19).
How Monday’s road finale — which was two games and not three as usual, since Northshore doesn’t have a Level 3 team — played out:
Level 1:
Completing the season sweep of Northshore, the Wolves top squad rolled to a 61-33 win.
Powered by 8th grader Logan Downes, who almost played his hosts to a draw by himself, scorching the nets for 32 points, Coupeville improved to 2-5 on the season.
CMS jumped out to a 14-2 lead after one quarter of play, with four different players tickling the twine for buckets.
After that, the Wolves steadily pulled away, ringing up advantages in each quarter and scoring in double digits in each frame as well.
Downes spread out his offense, tossing in six points in the first, then adding 10, eight, and eight, scoring on a mix of field goals and free throws.
Running mate Cole White chipped in with 12 points, including netting a pair of long three-balls, while Zane Oldenstadt (8), Ryan Blouin (4), William Davidson (3), and Landon Roberts (2) put their names in the score-book as well.
Nick Guay and Hunter Bronec also saw floor time for the Wolves.
Level 2:
Coupeville’s winningest team continues to chug along, dismantling Northshore 46-26.
With the win, the Wolves sit at a fairly sparkling 5-1-1 on the season.
Up 8-4 after one, CMS stretched the lead to 23-13 at the half, then 30-20 through three quarters.
Finishing strongly, Coupeville closed to a 16-6 tune, with the points spread out among five different players.
Timothy Nitta led the way for the Wolves, rifling the net for a game-high 14, with a three-ball included, while Quinten Simpson-Pilgrim and Hurlee Bronec knocked down nine points apiece.
Hunter Bronec (7), Jack Porter (4), Johnny Porter (2), and Nathan Ginnings (1) also scored, with Mikey Robinett tearing up Northshore on the defensive end of the floor.
