One team gives them trouble.

Take Mount Vernon Christian off the schedule and the Coupeville High School JV boys’ basketball squad is undefeated in conference clashes this season.

Unfortunately for the Wolves, the Hurricanes pop up twice on their list of opponents, and both times MVC has emerged as the victor.

Such was the case Tuesday, as an undermanned CHS team, hitting the floor with just eight active players, fell 59-26 on the road, snapping a three-game winning streak.

The loss drops Coupeville to 6-2 in Northwest 2B/1B League play, 7-7 overall, with two games left to play.

First up is the home finale Friday against La Conner, before the Wolf young guns travel to Friday Harbor Feb. 6 to wrap things up.

Tuesday’s tilt featured a well-balanced, potent MVC team which jumped out to an early lead and never relented.

Up 14-7 at the first break, the ‘Canes stretched the lead out to 28-15 by halftime, then 48-21 through three quarters of play.

While both teams were fairly even at the free throw line, with MVC hitting four of eight and the Wolves netting 4-10, the host team owned a 5-0 advantage when it came to popping the net on three-balls.

Coupeville got scoring from five of eight players, with Jayden McManus banking in nine points and Khanor Jump tickling the twines for eight to lead the way.

Liam Lawson (6), Ayden Warren (2), and Nathan Coxsey (1) also tallied points, with Jaden Flores Garcia, Brian Thompson, and Trent Thule rounding out the rotation for CHS coaches Craig Anderson and Jon Roberts.

History made, upset denied

They almost shook everything up.

Squaring off with Northwest 2B/1B League heavyweight Orcas Island Friday, the Coupeville High School varsity boys’ basketball squad overcame a substantial foul disparity and a second-quarter defensive letdown to push the Vikings to their limit.

But it wasn’t to be, as the visitors held on late to claim a 64-54 win and stay alive in the battle for a conference crown.

The loss drops Coupeville to 3-4 in league play, 6-9 overall, while Orcas gets to 6-1 in NWL action.

Brad Sherman’s squad heads to Mount Vernon Christian this coming Tuesday to face off with the league’s top team, before hosting last place La Conner Friday on Senior Night.

Friday’s fracas started with a brief road bump, as Orcas hit a pair of three-balls en route to claiming an early 10-2 lead.

After that it was Coupeville’s turn to get torrid behind the arc, as Chase Anderson drilled a pair of treys and Camden Glover splashed home another one across a two-minute span.

Closing the quarter on a 14-4 run, the Wolves claimed their first lead of the night at 16-14 thanks to some precision free throw shooting from Riley Lawless.

The CHS big man scored before actually playing a single second, as he replaced Anderson, who got crunched in the face while driving hard to the hoop.

With his teammate getting looked at in the locker room, then returning with an ice pack, Lawless inherited Anderson’s free throws.

He hit one, then promptly yanked down a rebound on the next play and earned two more charity shots of his own, both of which he drained.

Anderson returned to the lineup to start the second frame, and the Wolves ripped off three straight buckets to cap a 14-0 run and open a 22-14 lead.

The baskets came fast and furious, with Malachi Somes and Davin Houston banging home layups off of passes from Anderson and Carson Grove, respectively, before Anderson took a steal coast-to-coast.

But as suddenly as the offense began to flow, it stopped.

Taking advantage of a steady stream of foul calls on the Wolves, Orcas hit free throw after free throw and slow-crawled its way to its own 16-0 spurt, reclaiming the lead at 30-22.

The bleakness finally stopped as Anderson banked in a bucket a half-tick before the halftime buzzer, and the teams played a back-and-forth brawl in the third.

Glover and Anderson connected on three-balls on consecutive trips down the floor, but Coupeville could never quite regain the advantage.

From seven points down, the Wolves got back to within 41-38 by the end of the period, thanks to a jumper from Liam Blas and two more free throws from Lawless, but that was as close as CHS could get.

Blas rippled the nets on his own three-ball early in the fourth quarter, but Orcas responded with a 9-0 run to push the lead out to 52-41.

Down the stretch, the Wolves hung tough, cutting the deficit to 58-54 with under a minute to play, only to see the Vikings refuse to buckle.

Overall, Coupeville won the side battles, hitting seven treys to three by Orcas, while also shooting a higher percentage at the free throw line (9-12 vs. 16-23 for the Vikings).

Anderson led all scorers with 24 points, while Glover (11), Blas (5), Somes (5), Lawless (5), Grove (2), and Houston (2) also tallied points and Easton Green and Aiden O’Neill rounded out the rotation.

It was a historical night for Anderson, as he jumped from #13 to #10 on the CHS boys’ basketball career scoring chart for a program in its 109th season.

With 871 points and counting, he slid past Bill Jarrell (855), Arik Garthwaite (867), and Denny Clark (869), with the last of that trio having been a top 10 career scorer since 1964.

Heading into Tuesday’s tilt at MVC, Anderson is three points behind the #9 all-time scorer — his coach, Brad Sherman.

They’re our best hope.

Night in and night out this winter, the JV boys’ basketball squad has been the most-successful hoops team at Coupeville High School.

That proved true once again Friday, as the Wolves used an impressive defensive stand in the second half to overcome a slow start and grab a 35-28 win over visiting Orcas Island.

With the victory, the CHS young guns have won five of their last six and get to 6-1 in Northwest 2B/1B League play, 7-6 overall.

That puts them as the only one of Coupeville’s four high school basketball teams to currently be posting a winning record.

With three games left on the schedule, the Wolves also get a chance for revenge, as they travel to Mount Vernon Christian Tuesday to face the only league team to topple them so far.

Friday’s rumble did not start all that positively for Coupeville, as Orcas Island jumped out to a 14-4 lead by the first break.

After that, however, the Wolves begin to find their rhythm.

Four different CHS players hit a bucket during an 8-8 stalemate in the second quarter, before Coupeville used an 8-6 mini-run in the third to cut the deficit back to 28-20.

The fourth quarter? Time to get savage.

With Jayden McManus running wild, pouring in 11 of his team-high 15 points in the final frame, the Wolves pulled a 15-0 shutout across the game’s final eight minutes to snag the victory.

Six CHS players scored, with Khanor Jump (6), Nathan Coxsey (4), Josh Stockdale (4), Liam Lawson (4), and Chris Zenz (2) providing plenty of support for McManus.

Brian Thompson, Ayden Warren, and Trent Thule rounded out the rotation for the Wolves.

The climb continues.

Sparked by a dominant performance from Camden Glover, the Coupeville High School varsity boys’ basketball squad drilled host Concrete Tuesday night, continuing a recent rise up the standings.

With a 72-32 decimation of the Lions, Brad Sherman’s road warriors get to 3-3 in Northwest 2B/1B League action, 6-8 overall.

Cresting at the right time, the Wolves have won five of their last eight games overall, and their last three against conference rivals.

The win lifts CHS into a three-way tie with Darrington (3-3, 9-6) and Friday Harbor (3-3, 3-13) for third place in the seven-team NWL.

Mount Vernon Christian (5-0, 11-4) and Orcas Island (5-1, 9-5) currently top the standings, with Concrete (1-4, 4-12) and La Conner (0-6, 0-15) bringing up the rear.

Coupeville has four regular season games left on its schedule, all against league foes, starting with a home game Friday against Orcas Island.

The Wolves will enter play that night coming off a wire-to-wire win in Concrete.

With Glover and Chase Anderson combining to singe the nets for 15 points, CHS broke out to an 18-2 lead through one quarter of play, before steadily adding to the lead.

From 35-16 at the half, the Wolves pushed the advantage to 54-22 through three quarters, before rumbling in for the win.

Glover finished with a varsity career-high 28 points, all coming in the first three quarters, while Anderson banked in 14 in support.

Davin Houston (8), Riley Lawless (6), Malachi Somes (6), Carson Grove (4), Liam Blas (3), Easton Green (2), and Aiden O’Neill (1) all kept the scorebook keeper busy, while Nathan Coxsey rounded out the rotation.

With his 14 points, Anderson moves into a tie with Hunter Smith at #13 all-time on the CHS boys’ basketball scoring chart, which launched 109 seasons ago. The duo each have 847 points.

Up next is Bill Jarrell (855) and Arik Garthwaite (867), with Denny Clark (869) sitting at #10 and Anderson’s coach, one Brad Sherman, currently #9 at 874.

Josh Stockdale was a one-man wrecking crew.

Pouring in 21 points Tuesday in Concrete, the Coupeville High School junior outscored his hosts by himself, spurring the Wolf JV boys’ basketball squad to a 57-17 win.

The victory lifts CHS to 5-1 in Northwest 2B/1B League play, 6-6 overall.

Tuesday’s tilt was a lopsided affair from start to finish, as the Wolves exploded out to a 16-1 lead by the first break.

Stockdale and Nathan Coxsey both dropped in five points during the opening frame, as Coupeville put the game well out of reach.

Concrete, which had great difficulty scoring in three of the four quarters, did make a stand in the second, outscoring the Wolves 12-9 to cut the deficit back slightly to 25-13 at the half.

But after that it was all Wolves, all the time, with Stockdale banking in 15 of his 21 after halftime.

Coupeville used a 12-4 surge in the third to seal the deal, before blowing up the scoreboard in the fourth to the tune of 20-0.

Khanor Jump knocked down 10 points in support of Stockdale’s efforts, while Coxsey tickled the twines for nine and Ayden Warren rattled the rim for eight.

Liam Lawson (5) and Brian Thompson (4) rounded out the offensive attack, with Trent Thule and Jaden Flores Garcia also seeing floor time for the Wolves.
