Hit ’em hard, hit ’em fast, hit ’em more than once.

Jumping out to a big lead early Tuesday, the Coupeville High School varsity baseball squad scorched host Friday Harbor 9-3 to capture an important win.

All victories matter, but earning a season split with one of their chief rivals pushes the Wolves into the lead in the chase for playoff seeding.

Coupeville returns to Whidbey with a 4-2 record in Northwest 2B/1B League play and are currently the top 2B school in the conference, a half game up on Friday Harbor (4-3) and well ahead of La Conner (1-4).

The Wolves, who are 5-8 overall, head to Mount Vernon Christian Friday, where they’ll go for a season sweep of the Hurricanes.

Tuesday’s tilt on Friday Harbor was all Wolves, all day, as they avenged an earlier season loss to the Wolverines.

Two runs in the top of the first, with Peyton Caveness and Cole White walking, before Steven Gonzalez drilled a run-scoring groundout and Jack Porter whacked an RBI double, set the stage.

With Wolf senior Seth Woollet putting up goose eggs on the scoreboard, CHS tacked on three more runs in the second, and another three in the third to stretch the lead out to 8-0.

The big hits in the second inning came courtesy 8th grader Carson Grove, who looped a two-run single to right, and sophomore Chase Anderson, who smoked an RBI single to left.

It was the season debut for Anderson, who has been dealing with an injury, and he promptly delivered in the DH role.

Turn to the third and the base knocks continued to fly to all fields, with Camden Glover and Caveness socking back-to-back RBI doubles to left.

White sent another runner screaming for home on a hot grounder to shortstop, and Coupeville was flying high.

Woollet, who gave up a double to the first batter he faced, then retired nine straight.

He allowed just four baserunners across six innings of work, striking out two and keeping the Wolverines off balance all day.

Friday Harbor finally pushed a runner across in the fifth, though Coupeville matched it with a final tally of its own in the top of the seventh.

Landon Roberts bounced a single through the defense, then came around to score on a two-out double off the bat of Glover.

With Woollet leaving the mound before the seventh, Coop Cooper and Glover tag-teamed the final three outs, with Glover ending the game emphatically with a strikeout.

Coupeville dominated the stat sheet, outhitting Friday Harbor 9-5, and picking up seven walks to go with its base knocks.

Glover and Aiden O’Neill paced the offense with two hits apiece, while Grove, Caveness, Roberts, Porter, and Anderson each had one.

White walked three times, with Caveness and Cooper getting aboard twice thanks to free passes.

In fitting fashion, four of those seven walks came when Wolf hitters got plunked by wayward pitches.

This could be the start of something good.

Coupeville grad Joey Lippo collected three hits as the University of Maine at Presque Isle baseball squad snapped a nine-game losing streak on the diamond.

The Owls hammered the University of Maine at Farmington 12-4 in the second game of a doubleheader Tuesday, nabbing their first victory since March 13.

Now sitting at 2-14 on the season, Lippo and Co., who also had several games rained out recently, have 12 contests left on the schedule.

The former Wolf, currently in his senior season at UMPI, has been doing his part, hitting .318 with 20 hits, 14 RBI, and 10 runs.

Lippo leads the Owls in at-bats (65), triples (1), and RBI, while he’s #2 in batting average and hits.

He’s also collected 41 putouts while patrolling the outfield for Presque Isle.

During his CHS days, Lippo played tennis, basketball, and baseball for the Wolves, while at UMPI he has golfed in addition to his work on the diamond.

Live by the walk-off, die by the walk-off.

A game after rallying to pull off a stunner against La Conner, the Coupeville High School varsity baseball squad had the tables turned Saturday in Forks.

Unable to hold on to a two-run lead in the bottom of the seventh, the Wolves absorbed a 5-4 loss to the Spartans, with the game ending on a two-run single from Landin Davis.

The non-conference loss drops CHS to 4-8 on the season, with back-to-back huge rumbles next week against Northwest 2B/1B League rivals.

The Wolves travel to Friday Harbor Tuesday, then visit league leader Mount Vernon Christian Friday.

Coupeville was in control for much of Saturday’s showdown in Forks, jumping out to an early lead, then holding on to it until the game’s final moments.

CHS plated a run in the top of the first, thanks to singles from Peyton Caveness and Steven Gonzalez, before adding three more tallies in the third to push the lead out to 4-0.

The surge was set up by Caveness and Cole White being plunked by wayward pitches.

After that, Jack Porter bashed a two-out RBI double, and Landon Roberts laced a two-run single to center to keep things hopping.

Unfortunately for the Wolves, that was last runs they would score, as they failed to convert after having the bases loaded in the fourth.

Forks got a run in the third but did most of its damage late.

An RBI single in the sixth sliced the margin to 4-2, but it was bottom of the seventh when the Spartans truly came to life.

After notching five hits all day, the hosts drilled five consecutive singles in the final inning, pulling out the come-from-behind win and sending their fans home happy.

Coupeville picked up six hits on the day, with Porter’s double leading the way.

Caveness — who was also hit by pitches three times(!) — Roberts, Coop Cooper, Gonzalez, and Camden Glover also had base knocks.
