Playoff fever rages across the land.

Four of five spring sports – baseball, boys soccer, girls tennis, and track – are actively involved in postseason action, while softball is the lone activity still wrapping up regular-season play.

For Coupeville, the season came to an end Saturday night for the diamond men and the booters, as both were knocked out of their respective playoff rumbles.

Track is off to districts at Lynden Christian this coming Thursday and Saturday, with bi-districts and state still to come.

Wolf tennis hits the district tourney Tuesday and Wednesday in Granite Falls, with two singles players and two doubles teams vying to advance to bi-districts.

And softball, coming off a huge week which included an upset of Granite Falls, wraps its regular season Tuesday at South Whidbey.

Win that one, and the Wolves clinch at least a share of the league title, then get some time to rest as their district tourney doesn’t go down until May 16 and 18.

As we juggle regular season and playoff activity, and try to figure out how the softball league title battle will be decided (more on that in a separate story later today), a look at league standings through May 5:

Two titles won, two to go.

The battle for regular-season North Sound Conference pennants came to an end in baseball and boys soccer this past week, with Cedar Park Christian and South Whidbey triumphing, respectively.

That leaves girls tennis and softball still in the middle of heated battles, as the teams involved have a chunk of the regular season left to play.

The week ahead (Apr. 29-May 4) is a busy one for Coupeville High School, with a heady mix of regular and postseason play on tap.

Three of five Wolf programs are all about the playoffs as we head for the start of May.

Soccer hosts Cedar Park Christian Monday in a loser-out district game. Win and the Wolves play again May 1 and 4, both on the road, as they try to qualify for bi-districts.

Track heads to Granite Falls May 2 for the league championships. After that comes districts, bi-districts, and state in the weeks ahead.

Baseball gets to rest a bit, then heads to Sehome High School May 4 for the start of the bi-district tourney. The Wolves play twice Saturday, and need at least one win to keep their season alive.

Meanwhile, softball and girls tennis still have a chunk of the regular season to finish.

The netters are set to play four matches next week, starting with the home finale Apr. 30 against Friday Harbor.

After a road trip to Chimacum for a non-conference match-up May 1, the Wolves have a doubleheader May 2 at Granite.

Or, more like a match-and-a-half, as they need to finish an earlier tussle halted by rain, then play the regularly-scheduled finale.

Softball faces its biggest week yet, with four games in five days, and a title on the line.

Monday, the Wolves travel to Bothell to face Cedar Park Christian, then it’s home to rumble with Granite May 1 and for a Senior Night double-header May 3 with Sultan.

Coupeville has one more regular-season game the following week, a short trip to Langley to play South Whidbey, but league title hopes will be decided this coming week.

The Wolves sit right behind Granite in the standings, and absolutely have to topple the Tigers, or pray for a ginormous miracle from other teams, if they want to hang a banner for a second-straight season.

As we await the nail-biting, legacy-defining week on its way, a look at league standings through Apr. 28:

Push for the playoffs.

All five Coupeville High School spring sports programs are currently in line to send their team, or individual players, to the postseason.

For baseball, its playoff dreams are front and center this coming week.

The Wolf diamond men close the regular season with a three-game series against Granite Falls, playing at home Monday and Friday and on the road Wednesday.

They’ll enter that series needing just one win to clinch the fourth, and final, playoff berth from the North Sound Conference.

Meanwhile, softball, which is fighting for a league title, gets what could be an easy week, with games Monday at Sultan and Tuesday at home against South Whidbey.

Those two teams are in the cellar of the league standings, offering Coupeville a chance to get in, win, and get out, while maintaining their chase of Granite Falls.

Wolf soccer and track close the regular season, Tuesday at home against South Whidbey, and Thursday at Langley, respectively.

And tennis?

If the weather holds, they could play more matches in a four-day period next week than they have all season.

The netters have been limited to two full contests, and one against Granite Falls which was postponed mid-match by the arrival of liquid sunshine.

But, with the hope of sun on everyone’s minds, the Wolves are slated to spend a lot of time on the bus, with road trips Tuesday (King’s), Thursday (South Whidbey), and Friday (Friday Harbor).

As everyone preps for the week ahead, a look at where we sit with all games complete through Apr. 20:

 

North Sound Conference softball:

School League Overall
Granite Falls 6-1 9-5
Coupeville 4-2 7-6
CPC-Bothell 3-3 8-4
Sultan 1-4 1-7

The week ahead is huge for Coupeville High School spring sports teams.

It’s busy, it’s full of key games, and the results could help crystallize where playoff chases are headed.

Of course, that’s if the weather holds up.

After a deceptively nice opening to the season, rain has became much more of a factor as we wade into April.

But, barring more liquid sunshine, all five Wolf teams will be in action.

Track has a meet Thursday in Sultan, while tennis, which has still played just two matches thanks to scheduling issues and weather, hosts Granite Falls Tuesday afternoon.

Things are busier for soccer (at Sultan Tuesday, home Friday vs. Cedar Park Christian), baseball and softball.

The diamond men are slated to play a three-game series against Sultan, with home games Monday and Friday packaged around a Wednesday road trip.

But the biggest games, by far, belong to softball.

Coupeville enters the week in a three-way tie for first-place in the North Sound Conference with Granite and CPC.

And those two teams are what awaits the Wolves, as they host Cedar Park Monday, then travel Wednesday to Granite.

A sweep puts CHS in control of the league, with four of its final six games coming against much-weaker competition in Sultan and South Whidbey.

As you prepare for a week of all-out warfare, a reminder of where we stand through Apr. 14:

Time to get back at it.

Spring break is in its final hours, and Coupeville High School sports teams are ready to fire back up to full power.

After a very slow week in terms of actual games, once we get to Monday the schedule for next week is crammed.

Between Apr. 8 and 13, there are 14 events spread across five sports, with six of those at home.

Wolf girls tennis, which has played just once this season, leads the way with four scheduled matches, while baseball has a three-game set with South Whidbey.

Toss in four softball games — two varsity tilts at home and two JV clashes on the road — two track meets, and a soccer game, and scores and highlights will be coming in from everywhere.

As you prepare to go from zero to 100 in the blink of an eye, take a moment to catch up on the current league standings.
