The sun is out in Coupeville, but no tennis balls will fly in Langley Thursday afternoon.

The girls’ tennis rumble between the Wolves and host South Whidbey has been postponed, and CHS Athletic Director Willie Smith will look to reschedule.

Coupeville, which is 1-0 in Northwest 2B/1B League play and 1-1 overall, has two matches scheduled for next week.

The Wolves travel to Granite Falls Monday, Mar. 27, then host Friday Harbor Mar. 31.

The score remains 0-0 Thursday afternoon. Or 1-0, in favor of Mother Nature. (Lucy Tenore photo)

Advantage, Coupeville.

The Wolf girls’ tennis team went island-hopping Tuesday and pulled out a 3-2 win against archrival Friday Harbor in the first of four meetings between the Northwest 2B/1B League rivals.

The match was knotted at 2-2 when Lucy Tenore and Skylar Parker teamed up to win a fierce fight at second doubles.

With the victory, Coupeville gets to 1-0 in league play, 1-1 overall, with a non-conference road match at South Whidbey set for Thursday.

Friday Harbor and CHS are the only schools in the seven-team NWL to field tennis programs, and the Wolverines and Wolves will clash three more times this season.

Coupeville is slated to host matches Mar. 31 and Apr. 21, then will hop back on the ferry May 2.

The click of the camera, the ping of the phone.

However they capture the moment, photographers are out there, everywhere, documenting spring sports in Coupeville and in towns near and far.

The photos above and below showcase Wolf track and field, girls’ tennis, softball, and baseball, with nary a rain drop in sight.

Rolling right along.

With surprisingly decent weather to kick off spring sports, Coupeville High School teams are wading into action on diamonds, ovals, and courts everywhere.

All four Wolf spring programs have at least one competition under their belts, and, weather permitting, the week ahead is a busy one.

CHS softball plays three times, hosting league rival La Conner Tuesday, before playing a unique non-conference doubleheader Saturday afternoon.

The Wolves start the day with a bout against Forks, then return later in the day to play Granite Falls, with those two teams squaring off for their own game in between.

Across the road, the Coupeville baseball squad welcomes La Conner to town Tuesday, before Forks comes to Robert Sherman Field Saturday.

The Wolf track and girls’ tennis teams have more of a road-heavy schedule next week.

The netters travel to Friday Harbor Tuesday, then amble down the island Thursday to tangle with South Whidbey.

Coupeville track and field hosts a meet Wednesday, before travelling to Bellingham Friday and Stanwood Saturday to participate in large invitationals.

As we exit the first week of spring sports and head towards week #2, an early look at how the Wolves and their league rivals are faring so far:

The weather was fair, and the tennis was hot.

The Coupeville High School netters kicked off a new season Thursday, putting up a strong fight before being nipped 3-2 by visiting Granite Falls.

“Not bad for a first match,” said longtime Wolf tennis guru Ken Stange.

With only one other Northwest 2B/1B League rival playing girls tennis — the Wolves and Friday Harbor clash four times — CHS has four non-conference matches scheduled against 1A schools.

Coupeville will play home and away series with Granite Falls and South Whidbey, with the rematch against the Tigers set for Mar. 27.

After opening at home, the Wolves play their next three matches on the road, not returning to their own courts again until Mar. 31.
