They’re going to miss out on the hum of bus tires on asphalt.
The schedule for the Coupeville High School JV girls’ basketball squad took a hit Tuesday, with both Orcas Island and Darrington cancelling the remainder of their seasons due to a “lack of players.”
The change, which does not affect varsity action, eliminates two road trips for Kassie O’Neil’s team of young hoops hotshots.
Coupeville’s JV girls will now miss a trek to the wilds of Darrington this Friday, Jan. 5, and an island-hopping escapade Jan. 12.
Sitting at 2-4 coming into 2024, the Wolf JV has actually already played Orcas once, in a non-league game in which the Vikings poached CHS stars Haylee Armstrong and Bryley Gilbert to have enough players to field a full five-player unit.
As the schedule sits today, O’Neil’s crew has seven games remaining, with five at home.
First up is Auburn Adventist Academy, which travels to Cow Town Jan. 8.
