We’re headed to the finish line, and everything is at stake.
There are just under two weeks left in the regular season for Northwest 2B/1B League basketball teams, and the battle for playoff positioning is at full tilt.
The week ahead is a busy one for Coupeville, with the Wolves heading over to Mount Vernon Christian Tuesday, before hosting La Conner Friday on Senior Night.
After that, there’s just a matchup Feb. 6 at Friday Harbor before any potential postseason rumbles.
To make those playoffs?
Ignore 1B schools Darrington and Concrete in this equation, and Coupeville needs a top four finish among the five 2B schools.
Which means if the playoffs started today, the Wolf boys would be in, and the CHS girls out.
But, as noted before, there’s still two weeks of games left, so hope burns eternal for Scout Smith’s squad.
