“It was a great night and a great start to the season.”
The match was moved because of a flood that devastated the South Whidbey High School gym in August, but no matter the location, the Coupeville JV volleyball squad was on point in its season opener Tuesday night.
Playing at the local community center in Langley, the Wolves fired up coach Ashley Menges, fighting back to win in three intense sets.
The 25-14, 22-25, 25-8 victory launches a new season, and showcased strong work from the CHS veterans.
“My sophomores did a really great job with leading the court tonight,” Menges said. “Capri (Anter) had a great night.”
Anter paced the Wolves with a team-best nine kills, while seven of her teammates also picked up at least one winner.
“Consistency and aggression were great out the gate and lots of players had really great moments,” Menges said.
“We do of course have much more to work on, one being focus throughout the set,” she added. “But it was really fun to watch and saw a lot of really great things.”
