Mother Nature strikes again.
The 2019-2020 Coupeville High School basketball season continues to be jumbled by weather-related incidents.
After twice being tripped up by wind storms, this time around it’s snow bedeviling the Wolves.
CHS was slated to send its girls squads to Granite Falls Tuesday, while the boys teams were set to welcome Cedar Park Christian to town.
With both of those rival schools closing due to the wintery weather, however, gyms everywhere will remain silent.
The games, which are North Sound Conference rumbles, will be rescheduled and the hope is to do it fast.
The girls games at Granite Falls have been bumped to Thursday.
If weather improves, the Wolf boys will play at home Wednesday.
Those games would be set for 5 PM (JV and C-Team) and 6:45 (varsity).
In a twist, the Wolf C-Team would actually play Sultan in the middle school gym, and not CPC, as that game was already on the schedule for Wednesday.
The C-Team could then possibly pick up the Cedar Park game at a later date, said CHS Athletic Director Willie Smith.
Of course, continued snow and ice could make this all moot.
Friday, all five CHS hoops teams are scheduled to travel to Langley to face South Whidbey.
Temperatures are projected to be in the 40’s Island-wide by then.
