WIAA honors Wolf softball

May 7, 2024 by David Svien

They’ve reached a new level.

The Coupeville High School softball team, rolling towards the postseason with a 13-4 record and one game left to play, was honored Tuesday by the Washington Interscholastic Activities Association.

The Wolves were tabbed as the 2B Team of the Month for April, joining Dayton baseball (1B), Overlake girls’ tennis (1A), Lakewood softball (2A), Cascade boys’ soccer (3A), and Jackson softball (4A).

“This team has earned every bit of it and have bought into the program completely,” said Coupeville coach Kevin McGranahan.

“We have had some tough seasons since 2020 and we coaches have stayed the course and the girls have risen to the challenge. A little motivation going into the postseason!!”

Coupeville, which starts three 8th graders, two freshmen, one sophomore, and four juniors (with no seniors on the roster) are 9-0 in Northwest 2B/1B League play, earning their third conference crown in the last four seasons.

The Wolves wrap the regular season Friday with a non-league tilt at home against South Whidbey, then head to districts May 18, where they’ll play for a ticket to state.

McGranahan’s squad was honored by the WIAA for being strong, both on and off the field.

The sluggers hit .385 as a team, while racking up a team GPA of 3.453.

Along with their play on the diamond, and their work in the classroom, the Wolves were noted for their community involvement.

The team raised $1,300+ for the WhidbeyHealth cancer department with a “Strike Out Cancer” day, while also extensively working as mentors with Central Whidbey Little League players.

The coaches:

Michelle Armstrong
Lark Gustafson
Aaron Lucero
Kevin McGranahan

The players:

Capri Anter
Haylee Armstrong
Taylor Brotemarkle
Teagan Calkins
Mia Farris
Jada Heaton
Shania Kenney
Ava Lucero
Adeline Maynes
Madison McMillan
Allie Powers
Chelsi Stevens
Danica Strong

Different continent, same Dominator

May 7, 2024 by David Svien

Coupeville’s Dominic Coffman (center) celebrates winning a championship in Spain.

One year in, one title to his credit.

Coupeville grad Dominic Coffman was part of a championship-winning football team during his debut campaign overseas, as the Las Bravos Black Demons won the Spanish Cup Saturday.

The former Wolf, a three-sport star back in his CHS days, contributed on both sides of the ball, playing running back and linebacker.

The pics above and below, which come to us courtesy Dominic, capture the aftermath of the title game win.

Welcome to the postseason.

Two of Coupeville High School’s four spring sports programs are in action this Saturday, with berths to the state championships at stake.

Wolf track hosts the district meet here in Cow Town, while CHS baseball hits the road and travels to Lakewood High School.

Softball and girls’ tennis begin their own postseason treks a bit later, but here’s what you need to know if you’re planning on attending this weekend’s action.

BASEBALL:

Steve Hilborn’s crew, which has been on a tear in the second half of the season, carries a 10-8 record into play Saturday, and is the top-seeded squad in a three-team royal rumble.

Northwest Christian of Lacey (9-5) opens against Friday Harbor (5-11) at noon in a loser-out game, with the victor returning to the turf field at 2:00(ish) to face Coupeville for the lone state playoff berth from the District 1/2 tourney.

The Wolves will be the home team in their game.

Lakewood High School is located at 17023 11th Ave NE in Arlington.

Playoff pricing is in effect, with both cash and digital ticketing accepted.

Cost is $8 for adults and students without ASB, and $6 for students with ASB, seniors, and children.

TRACK AND FIELD:

Things will be hoppin’ at Mickey Clark Field, as Coupeville hosts the District 1/2 meet, with 2B and 1B teams competing (separately) for tickets to state.

For out-of-towners, the field is at 501 S. Main, directly behind the Coupeville Elementary.

To advance on to Yakima, Wolf athletes need a top two finish in their event Saturday.

Field events start at 11:00 AM, with track events getting under way at 11:30.

Once again, it’s the postseason, so there will be hands in your pockets if you want to get past the gate.

Ticket prices are the same as with baseball, and can be purchased on site with cash or through GoFan at:
