Boom. Exclamation point on the season.
The Coupeville High School JV spikers still have a Halloween-themed practice on the docket, but the Wolves closed out their game schedule with a bang Thursday.
Sweeping host Friday Harbor in three torrid sets, the young guns nailed down their first road win of the campaign, snapped a three-game skid, and capped things with a sweet W.
The victory lifts Coupeville’s final record to 3-5 in Northwest 2B/1B League action, 5-9 overall.
Even playing with just six players — freshman Lexis Drake was back in Coupeville in her other role as a Wolf cheerleader celebrating big bro Jaje’s Senior Night on the gridiron — CHS brought the fury.
It capped a season of learning for a very young roster, which featured five freshmen and a limited bench.
“I will say, this last little chunk of the season, I’ve appreciated them more and more with the work they’re putting in,” said Coupeville coach Ashley Menges.
And while the JV team is done playing, at least one spiker continues on, as Chloe Marzocca, who delivered a team-high 11 aces Thursday, has been added to the varsity roster for the playoff push.
