Seven schools, two separate paths.

The 1B schools in the Northwest 2B/1B League have wrapped regular season play, and are currently involved in playoff action, while the 2B institutions are still playing conference rumbles.

Coupeville’s hoops squads close with road games Tuesday at La Conner, before the Braves travel to Friday Harbor Feb. 9.

After that comes the postseason, though only the Wolf boys will advance this season, as the CHS girls fell just short of qualifying for the playoffs.

Seniors (l to r) Skylar Parker, Kayla Arnold, and Reese Wilkinson bow out next week.

 

Where win/loss records sit through Feb. 4:

 

Northwest League boys’ basketball:

School League Overall
La Conner 6-0 13-5
Coupeville 6-1 14-5
MV Christian 7-2 9-11
Orcas Island 4-5 8-11
Friday Harbor 3-4 8-10
Concrete 2-7 8-14

She’s a destroyer of worlds!

Call her “The Chiropractor,” cause Teagan Calkins is rearranging spines out here.

The Coupeville High School sophomore seems like a gentle soul in the real world, but put her in the heat of athletic battle, and she becomes a wild beast.

And we’re lovin’ it, as these reactions (clearly not taken out of context) demonstrate.

As the latter stages of the season unfold, the numbers continue to tick upwards.

Coupeville High School basketball players have combined to score 2,679 points this season, with 10 different Wolves notching 100 or more.

Even after going scoreless for the first time this season, due to a first quarter injury, senior Logan Downes is WAY out in front of everyone in the scoring race.

The battle for #2, however, is much closer, with JV player Camden Glover 17 points up on varsity star Chase Anderson.

Playoffs loom, but business to finish

The end is near.

Of the regular season, that is.

There are only 13 games left on the schedule for Northwest 2B/1B League basketball teams, then it’s time for postseason action.

The conference’s 1B schools wrap regular-season play this coming week, while the 2B franchises — Coupeville, Friday Harbor, and La Conner — have two weeks left before the playoffs.

The games ahead will decide where, when, and if the Wolf hoops stars advance, though it’s all but a slam dunk for the CHS boys.

The Coupeville girls are still scrapping, and their home game with Friday Harbor this coming Friday, Feb. 2 will have a lot to say about the matter.

Win or lose, Megan Richter’s squad returns to its home court the following day, hosting Orting in a non-conference tilt.

After that, both CHS teams put a bow on the regular season with a road trip to La Conner Feb. 6.

As we hurtle towards the end line of one thing and the start line of something else, a look at where things sit through Jan. 28:

 

Northwest League boys’ basketball:

School League Overall
La Conner 5-0 12-5
MV Christian 7-1 8-10
Coupeville 5-1 13-5
Orcas Island 4-4 7-10
Friday Harbor 2-3 7-9

They got the beat, and the shooting touch

The numbers keep trending up.

Heading into a busy week of basketball, there are now eight Wolves who have cracked 100 points this season — six boys and two girls.

Logan Downes, who reached #1 on the Coupeville High School boys’ basketball career scoring chart Saturday, is, not surprisingly, our top scorer this season.

Sitting at #2 is sophomore Camden Glover, who leads an explosive JV squad which features three 100+ point scorers, and two more guys close to joining them.

Overall, CHS hoops stars have combined to rain down 2,237 points this season, of which 2,211 are fully accounted for in our stats watch.
