First big test of 2025? The Wolves aced it.

Surviving a 400+ mile round trip on a school bus and a hail of three-balls, the Coupeville High School varsity girls’ basketball squad held off host Wahkiakum 41-39 Saturday afternoon.

The non-conference win against a foe it wasn’t familiar with snaps a four-game losing streak and lifts CHS to 4-6.

Now the Wolves head into the heart of league play, with their next eight games coming against Northwest 2B/1B League rivals.

First up is a trip to Friday Harbor next Tuesday, Jan. 7, followed by a home clash Friday with La Conner.

Megan Richter’s squad, which is 1-1 in league play, can look to its gut-check win Saturday for positive inspiration.

The Wolves came out on fire, with the epic bus trip down towards the bottom of the state not affecting their shooting touch.

Lyla Stuurmans splashed home an early three-ball, while Teagan Calkins and Katie Marti both rattled the rim for six points as CHS built an 18-5 lead by the first break.

Madison McMillan, in the middle of a scrum here, came up big in a road win at Wahkiakum.

With Madison McMillan stepping up to bank in six of her own points in the second frame, Coupeville went to the halftime locker room with a sizable 27-10 advantage.

And then almost gave it all back.

Wahkiakum, which hit nine three-balls on the afternoon, rained down five of those treys during a 22-6 surge, closing the gap back to 33-32 heading into the final quarter.

But Coupeville held strong, besting the Mules at the free throw line, where they netted 10 charity shots to just six by Wahkiakum, to claim the win.

Calkins, who scored in all four quarters, led the Wolves with a game-high 14 points.

That shoots the CHS junior into the top 100 all-time scorers in program history, which stretches back to 1974.

With 122 career points and counting, Calkins is now #97 on the list, where she joins seniors Marti (#41 with 271 points), Lyla Stuurmans (#55 – 218), Mia Farris (#65 – 188), and McMillan (#88 – 145).

Marti and McMillan both finished with eight points Saturday, with Lyla Stuurmans (5), Danica Strong (3), Farris (2), and Jada Heaton (1) also scoring.

Haylee Armstrong, Capri Anter, and Tenley Stuurmans rounded out the rotation, all seeing floor time in the 2025 opener.

More days off than on right now.

With the holidays unfolding, most Northwest 2B/1B League basketball teams are taking chunks of time off between games.

After playing two tilts in Eastern Washington this weekend, Coupeville is in rest mode until a road trip to Wahkiakum next Saturday, Jan. 4.

That trip is 200+ miles one way, however, so there’s that to look forward to for the Wolves.

As we mentally prep for the calendar to flip to a new year — a time when conference action will become the focus — here’s where things currently stand:

 

Northwest League boys’ basketball:

School League Overall
La Conner 2-0 5-3
Darrington 1-0 4-4
MV Christian 1-0 3-3
Coupeville 1-1 2-7
Concrete 0-1 2-4
Friday Harbor 0-1 0-8
Orcas Island 0-2 1-5

 

Northwest League girls’ basketball:

School League Overall
Concrete 1-0 4-2
La Conner 1-0 4-4
MV Christian 1-0 6-1
Coupeville 1-1 3-6
Friday Harbor 0-0 1-7
Darrington 0-1 4-3
Orcas Island 0-2 5-3

CHS boys nipped in 2024 finale

The encore was a huge leap forward.

Playing for the second time in as many days at Central Washington University, the Coupeville High School varsity boys’ basketball squad fought hard to the final moments Saturday.

And while the Wolves ultimately fell 53-50 to Kittitas, a non-conference rival with a stellar hoops history, the game was a marked improvement after CHS was routed Friday by Toledo.

Now 2-7 on the season, Coupeville is off until Jan. 4, when it travels to Wahkiakum for another rumble with a non-traditional foe.

Squaring off with Kittitas, a school with two boys’ basketball state titles to its credit, the Wolves never flinched.

Neither team could get the ball to stay in the hoop during the opening quarter, with the Coyotes clinging to a 5-4 lead, but then Coupeville picked up the pace.

Camden Glover splashed home a three-ball as part of a five-point spurt in the second frame, and five Wolves tallied points during a 15-10 surge.

Up 19-15, things looked good for CHS, but Kittitas had an answer of its own, using a 22-15 run in the third quarter to reclaim the lead at 37-34.

Sparked by Dallon Walker, who banged home 15 of his game-high 20 points in the second half, the Coyotes had just enough to hold off Coupeville in a game which remained close through the final buzzer.

The Wolves got scoring from seven different players, with Chase Anderson and Landon Roberts leading the way with 12 and 11 points, respectively.

Glover (8), Jack Porter (6), Hunter Bronec (5), Johnny Porter (4), and Hurlee Bronec (4) also hit the bottom of the net, with Malachi Somes rounding out the rotation for Brad Sherman’s squad during the final game of 2024.

Tough Toledo tips wily Wolves

Early tipoff times never scared them.

With the ref tossing the ball skyward at 8:59 AM Saturday morning at Central Washington University, it made for a quick turnaround for the Coupeville High School varsity girls’ basketball team.

Back on the court about 15 hours after their last game, the Wolves responded well, playing a tough Toledo squad even until the third quarter.

While the Riverhawks eventually pulled out a 36-29 win, the scrappy Wolves closed their Eastern Washington holiday road trip in style.

Now 3-6 on the season, Coupeville is off until Jan. 4, when it travels to Wahkiakum for another stern non-conference test.

Squaring off with a Toledo squad which claimed its fourth straight win to get to 6-3, the Wolves kept things close.

Senior gunner Katie Marti outscored the Riverhawks by herself in a defensive-minded first quarter, staking CHS to a 5-4 lead.

Toledo evened things up at 13-13 heading into the halftime break, before using an 11-6 run in the third quarter to slightly pull away.

Ryah Stanley was the difference down the stretch, as the Riverhawk junior tallied nine of her game-high 19 points in the fourth quarter.

Toledo clanked many a free throw, netting just 5-15 at the line to open the door a bit, but the refs were little help, as Coupeville barely got to the charity stripe, finishing just 1-4 once there.

Madison McMillan (left) and Lyla Stuurmans get ready to rumble.

Marti paced the Wolves with nine points, moving from #44 to #41 on the CHS girls’ career scoring chart.

She sits with 263 points heading into 2025 and passed all-timers Madeline Strasburg (261), Carly Guillory (260), and Sarah Mouw (259) Saturday morning.

Madison McMillan and Haylee Armstrong both banked in six to back Marti, with Teagan Calkins (4), Mia Farris (2), and Jada Heaton (2) also keeping the scorekeeper busy.

Lyla Stuurmans, Danica Strong, Tenley Stuurmans, and Capri Anter rounded out Megan Richter’s roster on the holiday weekend road trip to Ellensburg.
