Another successful season in the books.
Coupeville High School varsity volleyball coach Cory Whitmore made it seven straight winning seasons, guiding the Wolves to a 10-6 mark this fall.
That includes a third-consecutive 2nd place showing in league play — behind just four-time defending 2B state champ La Conner — and a strong showing at the bi-district tourney.
Coupeville thunked Northwest Christian in straight sets, then put together their best performance against the Braves in a tough championship match.
Next year promises great upheaval, with La Conner coach Suzanne Marble having retired after 30 seasons, and the District 1/2 tourney set to send two teams, and not just one, to state.
While the Wolves lose key seniors, they can return four letter winners, plus several other players who were vital to the JV going 12-2 and beating La Conner under the guidance of Ashley Menges.
But the future is the future, and the present was what was honored Tuesday, as the Wolf spikers capped the 2022 campaign with an awards banquet.
Coupeville’s five All-League players — Maddie Georges, Alita Blouin, Grey Peabody, Ryanne Knoblich, and Jill Prince — were acknowledged, while both the varsity and JV handed out multiple honors.
