They’re pretty much untouchable.
The Coupeville High School JV volleyball squad has the best record of any Wolf fall sports team, and it can slay you in multiple ways.
Thursday night the young guns showed they had grit, rallying to topple visiting South Whidbey 18-25, 25-20, 15-12.
The non-conference victory lifts the Wolves to 7-1 on the season and gives them a season sweep of the two matches with their archrivals from Langley.
“Pretty good!” said CHS coach Ashley Menges. “I was glad the girls were able to pull out the win.
“We don’t see many tests throughout the season, so I was pleased to see they can handle the pressure as well as they did.”
The Falcons claimed the early advantage, but the Wolves, who got stats from all nine girls to see the floor, never folded.
“We had a few up and down moments, getting rattled at times, especially in serve receive, but they were able to pull it together when it was needed,” Menges said.
“We definitely are going to start fine-tuning some skills getting towards the second half of the season,” she added. “But so far the girls have made great progress, and, as always, I’m very proud of them.”
Next up for the JV spikers is a return to Northwest 2B/1B League action.
The Wolves put their 4-0 conference record on the line Tuesday, Oct. 11, when Concrete visits Whidbey.
