Sophie Martin leads the charge.
The Coupeville High School senior has netted five career goals as a Wolf, placing her atop all active CHS soccer scorers heading into a new season.
When Coupeville kicks off the fall campaign — first day of practice is next Monday, August 23 — there will be 11 players who possess eligibility and have at least one varsity goal on their resume.
While we don’t know yet if all of those booters — six girls and five boys — will return to action for the Wolves, we do know who they’ll be chasing.
Mia Littlejohn owns both CHS girls soccer records, having tallied 27 goals in a single season, and 35 for her career.
Over on the boys side of the ledger, the records are split between a pair of cousins, with Derek Leyva having torched the net for 24 scores in a season, while Abraham Leyva finished with 45 career tallies.
Martin’s five goals places her in a five-way tie with Anna Dion, Britt Harpe, Jenn Spark, and Tia Wurzrainer.
The Wolf senior needs four goals to supplant Sage Renninger (8) as the sixth-best scorer in program history, and if she doubles her career total she can join an exclusive club of Wolves to reach double digits.
That list includes Mia Littlejohn (35), Kalia Littlejohn (33), Genna Wright (20), Lindsey Roberts (17), and Avalon Renninger (12).
For the boys program, the top active scorers are senior Xavier Murdy and junior Aidan Wilson, who both sit with three career goals.
Career goal totals for active Wolf players:
GIRLS:
Sophie Martin – 5
Eryn Wood – 3
Carolyn Lhamon – 1
Ava Mitten – 1
Audrianna Shaw – 1
Reese Wilkinson – 1
BOYS:
