The six-pack stands strong.
Playing with no bench for a second-straight match, the Coupeville High School JV volleyball squad put up a strong fight Tuesday, before being nipped by The Bush School.
The 25-23, 25-17, 19-17 non-conference loss, coming on the road in Seattle, drops the Wolves to 4-7 on the season.
Despite hitting Floyd Webb Court with no subs, Coupeville kept things close all night against their private school rivals.
The first set, in particular, was a nailbiter, with the teams tied 23-23 before the host Blazers pulled away in the late moments.
While the second set was a little more lopsided, the third frame was right back to being a back-and-forth battle.
After playing back-to-back matches against non-league teams to kick off the week, Coupeville returns to Northwest 2B/1B League action Thursday night.
This time the Wolves skip big city life and wander away to the wilds of Darrington for a clash with the Loggers.
Will they have more than the minimum six players for that royal rumble? Only time will tell.
Tuesday stats:
Capri Anter — 1 kill, 4 digs, 1 ace
Haylee Armstrong — 2 kills, 1 dig, 3 assists, 7 aces
Carly Burt — 1 kill, 3 digs
Lexis Drake — 2 aces
Chloe Marzocca — 1 kill, 3 digs, 1 assist, 3 aces
Myra McDonald — 1 dig, 3 aces
