“Onward to May!” (Photos by JohnsPhotos.net)
As that old-school warbler Justin Timberlake sort of once sang, “Soon it’s going to be May.”
The final month of the school athletic year is almost upon us, which means the regular season grows short for spring athletes.
Postseason efforts, and the chance to win state tourney glory, will arrive before you know it.
In fact, one Coupeville High School program — track and field — officially gets playoff fever next week.
The Wolves begin the postseason trek next Wednesday, May 1, when they travel to Mount Vernon for the Northwest 2B/1B League Championships.
After that comes districts and state, but both down the road in May.
Still plenty of work to do for Wolf athletes.
Meanwhile, Coupeville’s other three spring teams continue to plow through regular season contests.
Baseball and softball both travel to La Conner May 2, with the latter of those squads hosting Nooksack Valley the day after for a non-conference tilt.
Girls’ tennis has the week off — from competition with other schools at least — but still has two more matches left to play after that before beginning its own postseason efforts.
As one month fades out and another looms on the horizon, a look at win/loss records through April 28:
