It was a busy first week.

Northwest 2B/1B League basketball teams played 27 games across the first seven days of the new season, with 14 of those in just the past two days.

None of the opening bouts were conference rumbles, however, so everyone is still tied for first place in the league standings.

Sort of.

After that initial flurry, in which Coupeville High School varsity hoops teams combined to play five times, things slow down this coming week for the Wolves.

Neither the boys nor the girls take the floor against a foe until Saturday, Dec. 9, when CHS listens to the song of the bus wheels during a trek to the wilds of Sultan.

Between now and then, plenty of time to tweak things in practice, rest any early-season injuries, and gaze upon the standings.

Where things sit through games of Dec. 2:

 

Northwest League boys’ basketball:

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

 

Northwest League girls’ basketball:

The standings are frozen.

Regular season play for all fall sports teams finished this past week, and everyone still alive is off to the playoffs.

That means, first and foremost, that this is our final standings story until basketball gets underway.

But it doesn’t mean there isn’t action coming your way this coming week.

Coupeville High School volleyball plays Monday (in Lacey) and Wednesday (in La Conner) in the District 1/2 tourney, trying to punch its ticket to state for the first time since 2017.

Wolf cross country has already earned an invite to the big dance, with the entire boys’ team and sophomore Noelle Western slated to compete Saturday in Pasco in the 1B/2B state championships.

And finally, we may have more football. Emphasis on may.

Coupeville missed out on a trip to the playoffs but could pick up a week #10 game against another school without a postseason date.

Watch this blog (with bated breath) to see what develops in the next few days.

It’s the final push.

Coupeville High School fall sports teams wrap the regular season this coming week, setting the stage for possible playoff action.

Well, except for cross country, which is already in the thick of the postseason.

Having run at the Northwest 2B/1B League meet, the Wolves head to tri-districts Thursday at Fort Steilacoom Park, with an eye on advancing to the state meet.

For the other CHS squads, it’s finale time.

Football hosts Friday Harbor Thursday. Win and they square off with the same school again — likely Saturday in Anacortes — in a two-quarter tiebreaker to determine which NWL team advances to state.

Soccer bounces island to island, landing on Orcas Tuesday.

The Wolf booters will need a win, and some side luck, to net a playoff berth outright or a chance to play a tiebreaker for a postseason ticket.

No matter how the varsity fares, JV soccer has picked up an extra game, and will host Friday Harbor Saturday.

Finally, we have volleyball, which hosts La Conner Tuesday and travels to Friday Harbor Thursday.

Barring an epic upset loss to the latter of those two teams, which is 1-12, Coupeville advances to districts and will begin their quest for state on the road.

With a split league, 1B and 2B schools have different criteria for making the playoffs, but below are the overall standings through games of Oct. 21:

 

Northwest League boys’ soccer:

School League Overall
Friday Harbor 6-0-0 9-1-0

Gas up the busses.

Coupeville High School fall sports teams hit the road for six of their eight contests this coming week.

Cross country heads to Mount Vernon Christian Thursday for the Northwest 2B/1B League Championships, while football plays under Friday Night Lights at La Conner.

Meanwhile, Wolf soccer sends its JV team to MVC Monday, then its varsity squad to Lopez Island Wednesday afternoon.

Senior Night at home against La Conner Friday wraps up a busy week for the booters.

CHS volleyball also plays three times, kicking things off with a home match Monday against Providence Classical Christian.

A day later the Wolves travel to Seattle to tangle with The Bush School, before heading to the wilds of Darrington Thursday to put a cap on things.

We’re in the thick of things.

Fall sports are chugging along, with the race for league titles and playoff seeding part of daily life.

In that environment, Coupeville High School teams have six events in the coming week, with three at home and three on the road.

Wolf fans are on the edge of their seats.

Wolf volleyball enjoys home cooking, hosting Concrete Tuesday and Mount Vernon Christian Thursday night.

Meanwhile, CHS football has its Homecoming game Friday, with Forks making the long trek to participate.

Rounding out things, cross country gets on the bus for a trip to Lake Padden Park in Bellingham Thursday for the Lake Lap Invitational, while boys’ soccer makes two trips off-Island.

The Wolf booters travel to Friday Harbor Tuesday to square off with the defending state champs, then amble down to Bothell Thursday to play Providence Classical Christian.
