It’s the final push.
Coupeville High School fall sports teams wrap the regular season this coming week, setting the stage for possible playoff action.
Well, except for cross country, which is already in the thick of the postseason.
Having run at the Northwest 2B/1B League meet, the Wolves head to tri-districts Thursday at Fort Steilacoom Park, with an eye on advancing to the state meet.
For the other CHS squads, it’s finale time.

Football hosts Friday Harbor Thursday. Win and they square off with the same school again — likely Saturday in Anacortes — in a two-quarter tiebreaker to determine which NWL team advances to state.
Soccer bounces island to island, landing on Orcas Tuesday.
The Wolf booters will need a win, and some side luck, to net a playoff berth outright or a chance to play a tiebreaker for a postseason ticket.
No matter how the varsity fares, JV soccer has picked up an extra game, and will host Friday Harbor Saturday.
Finally, we have volleyball, which hosts La Conner Tuesday and travels to Friday Harbor Thursday.
Barring an epic upset loss to the latter of those two teams, which is 1-12, Coupeville advances to districts and will begin their quest for state on the road.
With a split league, 1B and 2B schools have different criteria for making the playoffs, but below are the overall standings through games of Oct. 21:
