Coupeville Sports

They’re #1 and #7.

With Liberty (Spangle) taking a loss to Freeman Tuesday, every softball team in 2B has two or more losses — except Coupeville, which sits at 15-1 heading into action Wednesday against visiting Orcas Island.

But while the Wolves have the highest win percentage among the 47 schools playing the diamond game in their classification, they are tripped up a bit by their opponent’s winning percentage when it comes to tallying RPI rankings.

Coupeville currently lands at #7 when the Washington Interscholastic Activities Association and its Ratings Percentage Index have the final say.

That’s up one slot from last week and can only be helped by the rise of Forks, the only team to take a game from the Wolves this season.

Those Spartans, who split a home doubleheader with CHS, are on a nine-game winning streak to get to 11-3 and crack the top 10 for the first time in the latest rankings.
