Elizabeth Bitting’s pack is on the prowl.
The Coupeville High School boys’ cross country team, which returns all seven runners from the squad which finished 10th at last year’s state meet, is garnering some preseason hype.
The Wolves sit at #6 among 2B/1B schools in a preseason poll released Thursday by the Washington State Cross Country Coaches Association.
That puts them one slot ahead of Northwest 2B/1B League archrival Mount Vernon Christian.
Not bad for a CHS harrier program which only returned in 2017 after a two-decade absence.
The Wolves are not the only team from The Rock to get some love, as South Whidbey’s boys are currently ranked #4 among 1A schools by WSCCCA.
But this blog is called Coupeville Sports, so we’re focusing on Cow Town, where state meet veterans Carson Field, Landon Roberts, Ezekiel Allen, George Spear, Thomas Strelow, Kenneth Jacobsen, and Axel Marshall are all back in action.
And while the Coupeville girls might not be ranked as a team (yet), they also boast a two-time state meet qualifier in Noelle Western.
