Savina Wells celebrated her 15th birthday in appropriate fashion — as a winner.
The Coupeville High School freshman was one of 10 players to score Tuesday, as the Wolf varsity girls basketball team obliterated host Concrete 59-25.
The victory lifts CHS to 3-0 in Northwest 2B/1B League play, 4-1 overall, heading into a big showdown at Mount Vernon Christian Friday night.
As the Wolves prep for the weekend — they also have a non-conference clash at South Whidbey Saturday — they sit a half-game off the lead in the NWL.
Defending champs La Conner are 4-0 in league action, 7-0 overall.
Tuesday’s road trip to the wilds of Concrete went off about as well as possible, with the Wolves popping the net from the word go.
Maddie Georges sank two shots from behind the three-point arc in the first quarter, part of an eight-point opening for the junior guard, while Ja’Kenya Hoskins controlled the paint.
Up 17-2 at the first break, Coupeville stretched the margin out to 31-7 by the half, then 50-16 heading into the final frame.
It was the sort of well-balanced, everybody-contributes effort CHS coach Megan Smith is thrilled to see.
“We have a solid team! They are in it to win it,” she said.
“And I am beyond impressed with all the strides I have seen them make so far,” Smith added. “It’s only up from here.”
Georges paced the Wolves with a game-high 13, including a trio of three-balls, while Audrianna Shaw knocked down 12 in support.
Izzy Wells (8), Hoskins (6), Carolyn Lhamon (5), Nezi Keiper (4), Savina Wells (4), Gwen Gustafson (4), Abby Mulholland (2), and Lyla Stuurmans (1) also scored, with freshman Katie Marti also seeing floor time.
JV sidelined:
Concrete only has one team, so Coupeville’s younger stars had the night off.
