Livin’ large in the ritzy part of town.
That’s where the Coupeville High School varsity basketball teams are right now, with both the Wolf girls and boys sitting in first place in the Northwest 2B/1B League.
The teams are a combined 4-0 in conference action, and 7-1 overall heading into the final week of action in 2021.
Coupeville travels to Concrete Tuesday, Dec. 14, then meanders to Mount Vernon Christian Dec. 17.
Wrapping up the first part of the hoops season with non-conference showdowns against South Whidbey Dec. 18, the Wolf squads have a rare split.
Coupeville’s boys will be at home, while the girls make the epic journey to Langley.
After that, both teams will practice, but not play for a bit, as the holidays toss in a break.
Games don’t return until Jan. 4, with the majority of the season’s contests playing out in 2022.
