They let them hang around for a bit.
But just a bit.
Putting the game away with a strong surge across the second and third quarters Friday, the Coupeville High School JV girls basketball team buried visiting Sultan 33-15.
With the win, the Wolves earn a season sweep of the Turks, while surging to a flawless 3-0 in North Sound Conference action, 6-2 overall.
Now, like their varsity counterparts, the JV girls won’t play in front of their home fans for almost three weeks.
Both girls programs have five straight games on the road ahead of them, not returning to the Coupeville gym until January 31, when Granite Falls comes to The Rock.
Friday night the Wolves came out a bit slowly, settling for a 5-5 tie at the first break.
After that, it was Turk crunchin’ time, as Coupeville used 9-2 and 15-3 runs across the next two periods to break things open.
CHS coach Megan Smith spread the offensive love around, with Alita Blouin and Ryanne Knoblich carrying most of the load in the second quarter, before Gwen Gustafson and Jessenia Camarena began to heat up in the third frame.
Blouin finished the game atop a very-balanced scoring attack, rattling the rims for eight points, while Camarena, Knoblich and Gustafson knocked down six apiece.
Savana Allen (4), Morgan Stevens (2), and Ella Colwell (1) also scored, while Claire Mayne, Abby Mulholland, and Heidi Meyers all played strongly on defense for the Wolves.
