This time they got to run.
A week after the original event was postponed due to a lack of ferry service, the Coupeville High School cross country team finally made it to Orcas Island Wednesday.
While there, the Wolves faced off with Mount Vernon Christian and the host Vikings, acquitting themselves quite nicely.
CHS senior Mitchell Hall won the boys race, with his closest rival on the 5,000-meter course being teammate Carson Field.
Claire Mayne was Coupeville’s top female runner on the day, claiming third place.
The Wolves now have a gap on their schedule, not competing again until Saturday, Oct. 8.
That day they’re planning to join the hubbub at the 40th annual Hole in the Wall Cross Country Invitational at Lakewood High School.
