We’re back in action. Probably.

After a sun-drenched Spring Break which featured no Coupeville High School athletic contests, the Wolves rev back up this coming week, with all four of their teams in action.

Cue the wind and rain, likely. Mother Nature is a fickle mistress…

For now, CHS girls’ tennis is slated to travel to South Whidbey Monday, before hopping over to Friday Harbor four days later for a league clash.

Meanwhile, Wolf track and field hosts a home meet Wednesday before getting up at the crack o’ dawn Saturday to venture off to Forks for an invitational.

On the diamond, Coupeville baseball and softball both have busy weeks.

The diamond men travel to South Whidbey Monday, host La Conner Tuesday, then hit the road Thursday (La Conner) and Saturday (Forks).

Finally, the undefeated softball sluggers have two against La Conner — home on Tuesday, away on Thursday — before pulling doubleheader duty in Forks Saturday afternoon.

As we … spring … back into action, here’s where things stand through Apr. 12:

 

Northwest League baseball:

School League Overall
MV Christian 6-0 10-1
Coupeville 4-0 6-2
Friday Harbor 2-2 3-5
Orcas Island 2-4 3-7
La Conner 1-2 2-5
Concrete 0-3 0-3
Darrington 0-4 0-8

 

Northwest League girls’ tennis:

Everyone is taking a break.

Well, maybe not everyone, but a whole lot of people will be out of office next week as Spring Break fever ripples across the land.

There are only three baseball games and two softball rumbles featuring Northwest 2B/1B League teams on the schedule for the week of Apr. 6-11, and none of those feature a Coupeville squad.

The Wolf track stars and tennis players are also sidelined, though everyone will be back in action the following week.

Which likely means it’ll be sunny skies from now through next Sunday, and then Mother Nature will launch a comeback in time to bedevil the schedule makers.

While we wait to see what the weather forecasters have in store for us, here’s where things sit through Apr. 5:

The sun was shining, and the forehand winners were exploding off the court.

Blue skies and a welcome lack of prairie wind greeted the Coupeville High School girls’ tennis team Friday, as it battled visiting Granite Falls in the last few minutes before Spring Break arrived.

The Wolves smoked their rivals in the singles matches, but came up just short in doubles play, eventually falling 3-2 in the non-conference match.

Now 2-2 on the season, Coupeville is off for two weeks and doesn’t play at home again until the end of April.

When they return from their extended break, the Wolves travel to Friday Harbor (Apr. 17), Granite Falls (Apr. 20), and University Prep (Apr. 25), not hosting a match on their own courts again until Apr. 29, when Friday Harbor travels to Whidbey.

Friday’s match consisted of pro sets for everyone, with several of the doubles matches going down to the wire.

The closest battle in varsity play came at #3 doubles, where sisters Hailey and Hazel Goldman rallied hard to push the Tigers to the brink.

The Wolf siblings both came up with big shots in tense moments, mixing crosscourt winners with artful lobs dropped into the alleys.

Friday’s results:

 

Varsity:

1st Singles — Tenley Stuurmans won 8-0

2nd Singles — Milana Light won 8-0

1st Doubles — Dahlia Miller/Aleksia Jump lost 8-3

2nd Doubles — Kauri Hamilton/Jovanah Villagomez lost 8-1

3rd Doubles — Hailey Goldman/Hazel Goldman lost 8-6

 

JV:

4th Doubles — Rowan Stoner/Jade Peabody lost 8-5

5th Doubles — Lakshmi Erickson/Savannah Coxsey won 8-5

6th Doubles — Natalie Driscoll/Joanna Hagen tied 6-6

7th Doubles — Annabelle Cundiff/Hazel Goldman lost 4-1

They flipped the script.

Garnering a bit of revenge, the Coupeville High School girls’ tennis team nipped host East Jefferson 3-2 Monday in Port Townsend to split the season series with their non-conference foes.

The victory, a reversal of a season-opening 3-2 loss to the Rivals, lifts the Wolves to 2-1 on the season, with a home match against Granite Falls set for Friday.

This time out, CHS swept the singles matches, while also collecting a win at #1 doubles to stay ahead of a team that is a mash-up of Chimacum and Port Townsend players.

The match was a tight one, however, with that doubles victory coming down to a third-set tiebreaker for Dahlia Miller and Aleksia Jump.

 

Monday’s results:

 

Varsity:

1st Singles — Tenley Stuurmans won 6-0, 6-0

2nd Singles — Milana Light won 6-3, 6-3

1st Doubles — Dahlia Miller/Aleksia Jump won 6-4, 4-6, 10-3

2nd Doubles — Kauri Hamilton/Jovanah Villagomez lost 7-5, 6-3

3rd Doubles — Hailey Goldman/Hazel Goldman lost 6-2, 6-0

 

JV:

4th Doubles — Rowan Stoner/Lakshmi Erickson won 5-1

5th Doubles — Miles Gerber/Savannah Coxsey lost 5-1

6th Doubles — Jade Peabody/Annabelle Cundiff lost 5-0

7th Doubles — Natalie Driscoll/Joanna Hagen lost 5-1

Busy, busy, busy.

With Coupeville High School heading into the last week before Spring Break, its athletic teams will be highly active over the next six days.

The first half of the week features road trips, while the second half is all about homestands.

CHS girls’ tennis is slated to travel to East Jefferson Monday, then host Granite Falls Friday, while Wolf track and field will be in Mount Vernon Wednesday for a mid-week meet.

Meanwhile, baseball motors off to East Jefferson Monday and Darrington Tuesday, before flipping things and hosting Darrington Thursday and East Jefferson Saturday afternoon.

Finally, the red-hot Wolf softball sluggers get two league clashes — Tuesday at Darrington and Thursday at home against the same rival — before also welcoming East Jefferson to Cow Town for a Saturday special.

Those weekend clashes will also feature the CHS diamond squads hosting their annual Strike Out Cancer fundraiser.

After that, barring any schedule shuffling, the actual week of Spring Break will have no events whatsoever for Coupeville athletes.

As we head into the thick of things, here’s where things sit through Mar. 29:

 

Northwest League baseball:

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

 

Northwest League girls’ tennis:

School League Overall
Coupeville 1-0 1-1
Friday Harbor 0-1 0-1

 

Northwest League softball:

School League Overall
Orcas Island 3-0 3-2
Coupeville 2-0 5-0
La Conner 0-0 1-0
