They’re headed home for a long stretch.
Fresh off a hard-fought loss at La Conner Tuesday night, the Coupeville High School JV volleyball squad gets five straight matches at home.
The Wolves, who have been playing with the minimum six players, five of whom are freshmen, return to action Tuesday, Oct. 3 against Friday Harbor.
After that comes tilts with Forks, Concrete, Mount Vernon Christian, and Providence Classical Christian.
Neither the Wolf varsity nor JV spikers have to play away from Coupeville again until Oct. 17.
Freshmen (l to r) Capri Anter, Myra McDonald, Dakota Strong, and Lexis Drake show great promise.
CHS fans who catch the JV squad (0-2 in league play, 1-4 overall) during their homestand will see a scrappy band of ballhawks who continue to fight hard even when giving up the advantage in terms of bodies on the bench.
While the wins may not have come as frequently as in the past, Wolf coach Ashley Menges has her squad on the upswing, teaching them to play with passion and courage.
Thursday stats:
Capri Anter — 2 kills, 7 digs, 8 aces
Haylee Armstrong — 3 kills, 1 dig, 2 assists, 2 aces
Lexis Drake — 3 kills, 1 ace
Chloe Marzocca — 9 digs, 2 assists, 4 aces
Myra McDonald — 2 digs, 1 assist
Dakota Strong — 1 kill, 4 digs
Haylee Armstrong and Co. play at home for the next three weeks.
