Yodnum Nakakul achieved the American dream.
The always-upbeat foreign exchange student tossed in her first bucket of the season Friday, becoming the 15th player to score for the Coupeville High School JV girls basketball team.
Sparked by Nakakul’s basket — and a whole lot of other ones, as well — the Wolves romped to a 46-19 win at Friday Harbor.
The win lifts Coupeville to 3-3 in Northwest 2B/1B League play, 3-7 overall.
The Wolf JV closes its season next Thursday, Feb. 10 with another road trip, this one to La Conner.
Friday night Coupeville claimed the lead early and never let up.
Katie Marti dropped in a quick four points right out of the gate, and the Wolves ran away with a 9-2 lead after one quarter of play.
From there the Wolves stretched the margin out to 18-5 at the half, then 31-11 heading into the final frame.
Coupeville spread its offense out, led by Marti, who banged in a game-high 10 points.
Mia Farris and Desi Ramirez-Vasquez each added eight points, with Madison McMillan and Skylar Parker raining down five points apiece.
Kayla Arnold (4), Bryley Gilbert (2), Nakakul (2), and Brooklyn Thayer (2) rounded out the attack, with Edie Bittner and Reese Wilkinson also seeing floor time for the Wolves.
Marti made the nets jump, nailing a trio of three-point shots, while Parker also connected from long distance, dialing up a shot from the ferry parking lot.
