Every time out, a positive.
A fairly-inexperienced band of Coupeville High School boys C-Team basketball players continue to show improvement, and Friday’s trip to Langley was no exception.
While the young Wolves fell 56-28 to host South Whidbey, it was one of their best offensive performances of the season.
Plus, a huge chunk of the points came from two guys who haven’t had much chance to put the ball in the hoop this season, always a good sign.
Friday night it was time for Nick Armstrong and Coen Killian to shine, and the duo came through, dropping in a season-high six points apiece.
Add a team-high eight points for go-go guard Dominic Coffman, six for inside enforcer Ben Smith — back in action after a sustained bout with illness — and two for Brayden Coatney, and the offensive attack was nicely-balanced.
While they didn’t score Friday, Coupeville also got strong work from Ty Hamilton, Caleb Sonntag, Josh Upchurch, and Alex Wasik.
The Wolf young guns are set to see tons of floor time this coming week, unless Mother Nature rears her vindictive head.
The C-Team hosts Cedar Park Christian Monday, travels to King’s Tuesday and CPC Friday, then plays a doubleheader in Granite Falls next Saturday.
The Wolves will face-off with both the host Tigers and Sultan that day.
