Score one for the public schools.

The Coupeville High School girls’ tennis team rolled into Seattle Saturday and captured a hard-fought 3-2 win over the University Prep JV squad, sending a shot across the bows of ritzy private schools everywhere.

With the non-conference victory, the Wolves get to 4-3 on the season and finally get to think about heading home for a match.

CHS hosts Friday Harbor Wednesday in the third of their four Northwest 2B/1B League showdowns, the first time the Wolves have hosted a match since April 3.

They rolled in, they rolled on the court, they rolled out.

Dominating the day, the Coupeville High School girls’ tennis squad swatted host Granite Falls 4-1 in Monday’s varsity rumble, then put a punctuation mark on things by sweeping the JV matches as well.

The non-conference victory lifts the Wolves to 3-3 on the season, with another road trip set for this Saturday.

CHS is slated to travel to Seattle that day for a tilt with private school power University Prep.

The Wolves are in the midst of a stretch where they will go nearly four weeks between home matches.

After playing three of their first four on the Cow Town courts, culminating in an April 3 match, the hardcourt aces don’t get to smack any winners in front of their home fans again until April 29.

 

Monday’s results:

 

Varsity:

1st Singles — Tenley Stuurmans won 8-0

2nd Singles — Milana Light won 8-0

The hardcourt battle rages on.

Friday Harbor bounced back from an early-season defeat to beat visiting Coupeville 3-2 Friday afternoon, putting the two girls’ tennis squads in a tie in the chase for a conference crown.

With the loss, the Wolves fall to 1-1 in Northwest 2B/1B League play, 2-3 overall, while the Wolverines sit at 1-1, 2-2 after finishing their week Saturday by beating the Anacortes JV.

Coupeville and Friday Harbor, the only two of the seven NWL teams to play the net game, have two more matches on the schedule this season.

The first rumble, April 29, is set for Cow Town, while the final meeting goes down on Friday Harbor May 6, weather willing.

For Coupeville, it has two non-conference tussles to play before renewing its league rivalry.

The Wolves are slated to travel to Granite Falls this Monday, before trekking to Seattle Saturday to square off with University Prep.

The season rolls on.

The weather hasn’t been stunning, but most Coupeville High School athletic events on the schedule have been played this spring, as the Wolves survive and thrive.

Looking at the week ahead, it’s heavy on home affairs, with five of nine contests set to go down on the prairie.

Chief among those is the Cow Town Classic Invite, hosted by the CHS track and field team Saturday morning.

While the Wolf girls’ tennis team travels to Granite Falls Monday and University Prep Saturday, both of Coupeville’s diamond squads get to play two of three on their own fields.

The Smash Sisters and diamond men travel to Concrete Tuesday, before hosting back-to-back games Thursday and Friday.

The first of those are against the same Lions squads they play earlier in the week, with Friday’s twin-bill a non-conference rumble with Island rival South Whidbey.

As we head into the next-to-last week of April, a look at where things currently sit:

 

Northwest League baseball:

School League Overall
MV Christian 6-0 10-2
Coupeville 5-1 7-4
Friday Harbor 4-2 5-5
La Conner 2-3 3-7
Orcas Island 2-4 3-7
Concrete 0-3 0-3
Darrington 0-6 0-11

 

Northwest League girls’ tennis:

School League Overall
Coupeville 1-1 2-3
Friday Harbor 1-1 2-2

 

Northwest League softball:

School League Overall
Coupeville 6-0 11-1
Friday Harbor 4-2 7-6
Orcas Island 3-2 4-5
La Conner 2-2 4-3
Concrete 0-4 0-4
Darrington 0-5 1-6

Spring is sizzlin’.

Maybe not weather wise, where most events have played out in cold, gusty prairie wind, and the occasional burst of rain, but Coupeville High School sports teams are racking up wins.

Softball is 9-0, baseball sits at 7-2, and girls’ tennis is a solid 2-2, while track and field has battled for titles at every meet this season.

Who knows? At some point the sun may come out and stay out.

Until then, we have the pics seen above and below to warm up the souls of Wolf parents.

Girls’ tennis dominates on every court.

The CHS diamond men are fighting for a league title.

Wolf seniors (l to r) Aleksia Jump, Dahlia Miller, and Miles Gerber are all aces.

The Smash Sisters are queens of the diamond.

Track and field’s numbers are booming.
