Djina Radenovic and Wolf tennis play twice as the regular season wraps.

A little something for everyone.

The week ahead is a hodgepodge of regular season and playoff action, with all four Coupeville High School spring sports teams involved.

Wolf softball and girls’ tennis wrap regular season action, while track and field and baseball begin what they hope will be long postseason runs.

The netters travel to Mount Vernon Tuesday, May 9 in a match just added to the schedule, then host Friday Harbor May 12.

That second bout, where the Wolves will celebrate Senior Night, offers CHS a chance to claim sole possession of the Northwest 2B/1B League title.

After that, Ken Stange’s squad sends its top players on to the district tourney, which is set to go down in Seattle May 19.

The CHS softball squad, meanwhile, travels to South Whidbey May 12 for a final non-league game, then packs up the equipment.

The Wolf sluggers were nipped by Friday Harbor in the league finale and lost a chance to advance to the playoffs.

Baseball and track get their postseason closeup Saturday, May 13, with the hardball squad on the road at Lakewood High School, where they will face either Northwest Christian (Lacey) or Friday Harbor.

The Wolf runners, throwers, and jumpers defend their home turf, with CHS hosting the district meet.

Do well, and the state championships are next on the schedule for both teams.

As we head into a week of intrigue, a look at where things sit in terms of wins and losses:

 

Northwest League baseball:

School League Overall
Coupeville 13-1 15-5
MV Christian 13-1 14-3
Friday Harbor 8-6 8-8
Orcas Island 7-8 11-8
Darrington 6-9 8-10
La Conner 3-11 5-14
Concrete 0-14 0-15

 

Northwest League girls’ tennis:

The calendar turns and things get serious.

The arrival of May marks the start of the stretch run for Coupeville High School spring sports teams, with league titles and possible postseason glory at stake.

Wolf softball, baseball, and girls’ tennis all sit atop the Northwest 2B/1B League standings, while track and field has been dominant, especially on the boy’s side.

The CHS netters, who have clinched at least a tie for the conference crown, can claim sole possession with a win Tuesday at Friday Harbor.

Miss there, and they’ll get another crack May 12, when the Wolverines travel to Whidbey for Coupeville’s Senior Night.

Wolf softball only plays once in the week ahead, but everything hinges on the outcome.

The sluggers travel to Friday Harbor Thursday, and the stakes are simple.

Win, and the Wolves clinch a playoff berth. Lose, and a May 12 non-conference road game at South Whidbey is the season finale.

CHS baseball was supposed to play twice, but non-league rival Sultan bailed on a Monday trip to Whidbey, so the hardball squad will wait until Thursday, joining softball for its island-to-island trek.

Win, lose, or draw, the diamond squad has clinched the #1 seed for the District 1/2 tourney for 2B schools, where they’ll need one victory May 13 to punch a ticket to state.

What is at stake this coming week is the NWL title.

Coupeville is a half-game up on 1B Mount Vernon Christian, with the teams having split their two-game season series.

MVC has games left Tuesday with Concrete and Thursday with Orcas Island as the Hurricanes angle to stay even with the Wolves.

While the first three sports are nearing the end of the regular season, track is the first to step into the postseason, with a trip Wednesday to La Conner for the league championships.

That starts a three-meet run for glory, with districts and state up next.

As we head into a (possibly) dramatic week, a look at current standings for teams which tally wins and losses:

 

Northwest League baseball:

School League Overall
Coupeville 12-1 14-4
MV Christian 11-1 12-3
Friday Harbor 7-5 7-7
Orcas Island 6-7 9-7
Darrington 5-8 6-8
La Conner 3-10 4-12
Concrete 0-12 0-12

 

Northwest League girls tennis:

School League Overall
Coupeville 2-0 2-4
Friday Harbor 0-2 0-3

 

Northwest League softball:

School League Overall
Coupeville 10-1 13-5
Friday Harbor 8-1 11-4
Darrington 5-4 6-5
Orcas Island 5-5 5-9
La Conner 2-8 2-14
Concrete 0-11 0-13

Other than the weather, CHS fans have had plenty to be happy about this spring.

Is the price of gas going to drop?

That’s the question on the mind of Coupeville High School Athletic Director Willie Smith, as Wolf spring sports teams hit the road for five of seven contests next week.

Girls’ tennis has the week off — from competition, if not practice — but baseball, softball, and track and field all will listen to the sound of the wheels on the bus goin’ round ‘n round.

Baseball and softball travel to Concrete Tuesday and Darrington Thursday, before closing out the week at home Saturday against La Conner.

That weekend doubleheader is Senior Night for the Wolf diamond players, with both games set to start at 1:00 PM.

Meanwhile, the CHS track team, or part of it at least, travels to Lakewood Saturday for the Sunny and 70 Invitational, the final meet before the postseason kicks off.

Based on “spring” weather so far, it’ll be cloudy, windy, wet and 45 degrees, no matter what the event is called.

As we head into a new week, a look at current standings for teams which keep track of wins and losses:

 

Northwest League baseball:

School League Overall
MV Christian 10-1 10-3
Coupeville 9-1 11-4
Friday Harbor 6-3 6-5
Orcas Island 5-6 8-6
Darrington 4-6 5-6
La Conner 1-9 2-11
Concrete 0-9 0-9

 

Northwest League girls tennis:

School League Overall
Coupeville 2-0 2-4
Friday Harbor 0-2 0-2

 

Northwest League softball:

School League Overall
Coupeville 7-1 10-5
Friday Harbor 6-1 9-4
Darrington 5-1 6-2
Orcas Island 3-5 3-9
La Conner 1-6 1-12
Concrete 0-8 0-10

It’s the most important week of the season.

So far.

With spring sports in full flower, Coupeville High School teams will be in action every day next week between Tuesday and Saturday.

Mother Nature willing.

For Wolf softball, Tuesday’s home tilt with Friday Harbor looms large, as the result directly impacts any playoff hopes.

Win, and the postseason is still in play. Lose, and it’s not.

Either way, the Wolves also travel to Orcas Island Saturday for a game which marks 75% of the regular season being played.

Coupeville’s baseball squad will need to keep an eye on pitch counts, with four games in five days on the schedule.

The Wolves host Friday Harbor Tuesday, travel to South Whidbey Wednesday, are back home Thursday for Mount Vernon Christian, and hit the road Saturday to Orcas.

The first of those games will go a long way to determining which 2B squad from the Northwest 2B/1B League earns a state playoff bid, while the MVC matchup has epic league title implications.

Not quite as busy, but still very active, are CHS track and field and girls’ tennis.

The netters host Friday Harbor on Friday, while the runners, jumpers, and throwers have two meets.

The Wolves host the Coupeville Classic Invitational Wednesday, which doubles as Senior Night, before hitting the road Saturday for an appearance at the GearUp Eason Invitational in Snohomish.

As they gas up the busses and prepare the postgame snacks, a look at current league standings for those sports which have win/loss records.

 

Northwest League baseball:

School League Overall

Coupeville 5-1 7-3
Orcas Island 5-3 8-3

CHS netters are ready to tango with their next-door neighbors. (Lucy Tenore photo)

Some at home, some on the road.

Weather willing, three of four Coupeville High School spring sports teams are scheduled to play this coming week.

Grabbing headliner status is Wolf softball, which hosts Darrington Tuesday, Apr. 11 in a battle between Northwest 2B/1B League heavyweights.

After that, CHS hits the road Apr. 13 and Apr. 15, with trips to La Conner and Onalaska, respectively.

The second, and longest, of those bus rides is for a non-conference doubleheader, as the Wolves want to get the most from their Eastern Washington trek.

Meanwhile, Wolf baseball joins its softball counterparts in hosting Darrington and traveling to La Conner, while Coupeville girls’ tennis plays a home-and-away setup with non-league rival South Whidbey.

The netters go to Langley Apr. 11, then host the Falcons Apr. 14.

Taking the week off — at least in terms of attending meets — is Wolf track and field, which will focus on practice and recovery from a busy schedule.

As we head into a new week of wondering whether Mother Nature will cooperate, a look at current league standings:

 

Northwest League baseball:

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

 

Northwest League girls tennis:

School League Overall
Coupeville 1-0 1-2
Friday Harbor 0-1 0-1

 

Northwest League softball:

School League Overall
Darrington 3-0 4-0
