Julia Myers has kept her elbows in prime shape during the off-season.

The stat keepers are ready for a new season.

The seasons, they are a changin’.

Fall sports officially ended Friday with Coupeville drilling Bellevue Christian 55-38 on the gridiron, and now we sit nine short days away from the first day of basketball practice on Nov. 17.

Actual high school hoops games start two weeks after that and stretch through Feb., with the Wolf girls’ and boys’ squads combining to play at home 19 times in 2014-2015, barring any postseason flavor filtering into the CHS gym.

Coupeville has 10 doubleheaders this season, with four of them at home. The first comes Friday, Dec. 3 when South Whidbey makes the stroll up-Island.

The Wolves and Falcons, despite no longer being league mates in the 1A/2A Cascade Conference, will stay play twice this season, once in Cow Town and once down in Langley.

Having moved into the new 1A Olympic League, CHS will face each of its new rivals — Klahowya, Port Townsend and Chimacum — three times apiece.

Loss can’t dim success!!

Mia Littlejohn is part of a talented group of freshmen who made an impact this season.

It was not an especially thrilling day for the Olympic League.

Two of the league’s three girls’ soccer playoff teams fell in the first day of postseason action Saturday, leaving league champ Klahowya to fend for itself against the forces of the Nisqually League.

Port Townsend, the #3 seed, went down hard, falling 5-0 to Bellevue Christian, while #2 Coupeville was forced to travel 45 miles for a “home” game that they lost 3-0 to Vashon Island.

Despite earning the chance to host their game, the Wolves were denied by a District 3 rule that all playoff games have to be held on turf fields.

That forced CHS to hit the highway early in the AM and travel to Kingston High School.

The loss dropped Coupeville’s final record to 6-7-1, still the strongest mark by far in the school’s limited girls’ soccer history.

The game marked the end of the road for a group of splendid seniors who helped lift the program to new heights.

Julia Myers, Ana Luvera, Christine Fields, Micky LeVine, Erin Rosenkranz, Ivy Luvera, Marisa Etzell and the injured Jacki Ginnings all bowed out on top.

Final scoring totals for the season:

Micky LeVine – 6
Marisa Etzell – 4
Mia Littlejohn – 3
Erin Rosenkranz – 3
Sage Renninger – 2
Lauren Bayne – 1
Jacki Ginnings – 1
Ana Luvera – 1

Playoffs, here we come!!

Daigneault keeps her eyes on the skies, tracking the flight of the ball.

It’s many things wrapped in one.

It’s a “home” game that’s taking place 45 miles down the road.

It’s a winner-take-all playoff game.

It’s probably the biggest game in program history.

When the Coupeville High School girls’ soccer squad (6-6-1) takes the pitch this afternoon (12 PM) at Kingston High School, it will be a rare venture into true postseason play for the Wolf booters.

The opponent is Vashon Island (6-4-1), the #3 team from the Nisqually Valley League and Coupeville is nominally the home team, having earned that honor by claiming second place in the Olympic League behind Klahowya.

But, with the requirement that all District 3 playoff games take place on turf fields, CHS was not allowed to host the game on its field.

Oak Harbor’s beautiful turf field, less than 10 miles up the road, was already spoken for (a cheer camp), so it’s off to North Kitsap.

The #3 team from the Olympic, Port Townsend (3-11) faces the #2 team from the Nisqually, Bellevue Christian (7-4-2) as well Saturday.

The Coupeville/Vashon winner advances to play Seattle Christian (12-2-1) Nov. 4, while the Port Townsend/Bellevue Christian winner gets Klahowya (14-1).

Two teams will emerge from the six-team district tourney and qualify for state.
