Dangerously close.
Facing off with 1A Granite Falls Monday, the 2B Coupeville High School girls’ tennis squad came within a handful of points of toppling the Tigers.
But, for the second time in as many matches this season, the Wolves were edged 3-2 by their bigger school rivals.
The non-conference road loss drops Coupeville to 1-2 on the year, with a home match against Northwest 2B/1B League foe Friday Harbor set for this Friday, Mar. 31.
Mother Nature willing.
Monday’s match featured wins by #1 singles ace Helen Strelow and #1 doubles duo Hayley Fiedler and Vivian Farris, with all three Wolf seniors getting to a pristine 3-0 on the campaign.
