Volleyball can be a cruel sport.
Case in point, Tuesday’s road trip to La Conner, where the Coupeville High School varsity spikers won more points than their hosts, yet ultimately lost the match.
The Braves slipped away with a 19-25, 29-27, 25-21, 20-25, 15-13 victory, while the Wolves led on the cumulative scorecard by a 111-108 tally.
With the loss, Coupeville, the defending Northwest 2B/1B League champs, slips to 1-2 in conference action, 2-3-1 overall.
That leaves Scout Smith’s squad with some ground to make up, as it trails Mount Vernon Christian (3-0), La Conner (2-0), Darrington (1-0), and Orcas Island (1-1) in the early going.
Friday Harbor (0-2) and Concrete (0-3) round out the standings, with Coupeville slated to travel to Darrington Thursday for the fourth of its 10 league tilts.
