Anna Powers is setting a torrid pace.

The Coupeville Middle School 8th grade cross country ace made it two wins in a row, outrunning a field of 65 girls Thursday at a seven-team home meet at Fort Casey State Park.

Powers finished nearly 13 seconds ahead of her nearest competitor to claim the title.

The boys individual crown went to South Whidbey 7th grader Wesley Samuelson, who out dueled 108 foes in his race.

Coupeville’s Henry Purdue and Lincoln Wagner were hot on his heels, finishing third and fourth, respectively, on the 1.7 mile-course.

The South enders claimed both team titles, with the Wolf boys landing in second place while their female counterparts finished fourth.

Coupeville returns to action almost immediately, hitting the trails at the John Payne XC Invitational Saturday at University Place.

Anna Powers can’t be caught.

The Coupeville Middle School 8th grader outran the field Friday at the Return of the Salmon Cross Country Invitational in Sultan, claiming first-place in a field of 64 runners.

Powers victory, in which she beat her nearest rival by five-plus seconds, put a cap on a strong all-around day for the Wolves, who placed six runners — two girls and four boys — in the top 10.

Coupeville’s boys finished second in the team standings, almost catching powerhouse South Whidbey, while the Wolf girls were a solid third.

“We have some really strong runners!” said happy CMS coach Amber Wyman after her team finished the 3,000-meter races.

The Wolves will get another chance to show that next Thursday, Oct. 2, but closer to home.

CMS hosts a six-team Cascade League meet at Fort Casey State Park that day.

The pack is on the attack.

Let the spikes fly and the aces zing.

Coupeville Middle School volleyball kicked off a new season Thursday, hosting next-door neighbor South Whidbey for three matches.

And while the visiting Falcons claimed the victories, the young Wolves impressed their coach with their early-season growth and hustle.

“The girls played great! It was fun seeing everyone trying their best,” CMS coach Shaloma Allen said.

“I was completely impressed with how my girls played today. They showed me how competitive they can be and I love it!”

South Whidbey’s varsity claimed a 25-10, 25-19, 15-4 win, while the Falcon JV came out on top 25-22, 25-10, 15-5.

The C-Team rumble went to the visitors by a 25-9, 25-17, 15-5 score.

Allen, who was making her debut on the Wolf bench, will lead CMS through three straight road trips next.

Coupeville travels to Lakewood, Sultan, and King’s for its next matches, not playing at home again until Oct. 9 against Granite Falls.

The season is a learning process, and the Wolf spikers will likely look far different the next time they’re in action on their home floor.

“Varsity is learning some cool rotations and I loved how they helped each other and worked as a team,” Allen said.

“All three teams had amazing energy the whole time,” she aded. “We all had a great experience and now we have a good baseline to work from.”

While Coupeville’s high school cross country team has already participated in several meets, Saturday marked the season debut for the Wolf middle school harriers.
