The throwers put on a show.

Competing at the 21-team BCS Invite at Interlake High School in Bellevue Saturday, the Coupeville High School track team set 16 PRs and won a relay event.

That win came in the 4 x 100 relay for throwers, where Dalton Martin, Grey Rische, Mitchell Losey and Jesse Hester teamed up to out-lean Cedar Park Christian by less than half a second.

That performance, and strong work in the shot put and discus by Martin, gave the CHS throwers a title, as the Wolf boys bested six other schools to claim first place in the team competition.

Overall, Coupeville claimed 10th place in both team battles, with Cedar Park Christian winning the boys title and Montesano nabbing the honors on the girls side of the ledger.

Six Wolves set two PRs apiece, with Delaney Armstrong, Allison Wenzel, Abby Parker, Jacob Smith, Connor Thompson and Lathom Kelley all putting in strong work.

The hits came, before and after the game.

Playing a South Skagit Lightning squad in need of experience, the South Central Sox romped to a 15-5 win Saturday, then stayed around and put in some after-game play to give a new pitcher a chance to face live hitters.

In the regular game, Coupeville’s contingent on the South/Central Whidbey little league team made an impact, with Ema Smith blasting a triple.

Smith and Veronica Crownover added singles, with Crownover and Tamaki Nastali walking multiple times.

Nastali (2), Crownover (2) and Smith (1) combined for five steals, as the Sox took advantage of the Lightning, who were missing their normal starting pitcher.

In the extra play, Crownover continued to swing a hot bat, bashing a double.

Yes, we have become Fashion Weekly. Got a problem with that? Zane Bundy, injured but natty.

   Yes, we have become Fashion Weekly. Got a problem with that? Zane Bundy, injured but natty Saturday.

The sun was out Saturday, the fashion was poppin’ and, for a half, it looked like a major upset was brewin’.

But, it wasn’t to be, as, eventually, visiting Charles Wright Academy found their legs and roared back to knock off the Coupeville High School boys’ soccer squad 3-1.

The non-conference loss dropped the Wolves to 3-8.

Coupeville, 2-2 in Olympic League play, closes the regular season with conference games at home against Klahowya Monday and on the road at Port Townsend Wednesday.

The Wolves have already clinched a playoff berth, but are still fighting with Port Townsend for the league’s #2 seed.

The top two Olympic League teams host their playoff openers, while the #3 seed hits the road.

Coupeville came out on fire Saturday.

Even missing a number of key players — injuries have been a constant, nagging issue for the Wolves — CHS took the early lead.

Abraham Leyva banged home his 13th goal of the season, off of an assist by Uriel Liquidano, to stake Coupeville to a 1-0 halftime advantage.

Tired legs, though, eventually caught up with the Wolves.

“With so many guys out and not as many subs the guys got a little tired the second half,” said Wolf coach Kyle Nelson.

Three days, three birthdays, triple the birthday cake (I assume).

Wolf Nation is on constant cake alert for a couple of days, as two Wolf athletes and a soccer mom who is one of the school’s most vocal supporters, all hit milestones.

Saturday, it’s CHS sophomore Ethan Marx, who has played tennis and baseball and is following in the successful footsteps of big sis Haley.

He’s already making his own name, however, nabbing Most Improved when the Wolf netters handed out awards in the fall.

Roll into Sunday and Dawn Brock, the ultimate soccer homer (and I mean that in a good way), celebrates.

She’s given Coupeville two strong soccer players, Nathan and Tanner Kircher, but it’s her vocal stylings that truly set her apart.

Loud ‘n proud, and fiercely devoted to her all of her soccer guys (whether they be blood relatives or not), she can scare a ref and spur on her team at the same time, without missing a beat.

If other CHS athletic teams were smart, they’d rent her services for their games.

Cause no one (and I mean NO ONE) out cheers Ms. Brock.

With Monday, school will be back in session and our birthday trifecta will come to a close with the coronation of irrepressible cheer sensation Maddy Neitzel.

The Wolf junior jumped into cheer this year feet first and made a huge splash.

She might not be the biggest, but she cheers from her heart, and that part of her is epic-sized.

Whether flying through the air or working the sidelines, Maddy is a burst of sunshine on even the drizzliest, foggiest Friday night and the Wolves are lucky to have her.

Even when she wasn’t cheering in uniform, she always showed up for basketball games with Jazmine Franklin, there to support their friends like Wiley Hesselgrave and Ryan Griggs as they played.

Neitzel, Brock and Marx are involved in different sports, but all three are united by their love for what they do.

They represent Coupeville well, and I hope their birthdays are as great as they are.

   McKayla Bailey, seen here pulling off a web gem earlier this season, smashed a home run.

All the bats came alive.

Kick-started by a home run from longball-lovin’ McKayla Bailey, the Coupeville High School softball squad destroyed host Port Townsend Friday, romping to a 17-6 victory.

The win, called after five innings due to the mercy rule, lifted the Wolves to 5-8 overall, 4-3 in Olympic League play.

It also gave Coupeville a three-game sweep of the Redhawks and guaranteed the Wolves are bound for the playoffs.

First though, they still have six more regular season games to get through, including two more league tilts.

Friday, CHS came out on fire, jumping on Port Townsend for six in the first, then scoring in every inning after that.

The hits came from all slots in the lineup, with Kailey Kellner collecting a career-high five RBI to pace the offensive attack.

Hailey Hammer (4), Katrina McGranahan (3), Lauren Rose (2), Tiffany Briscoe (1) and Bailey (1) all chipped in to the RBI assault, as well.

The sweet swinging success continued to Jasmine Melena, who smacked a solid single over third base in her first at-bat of the season and Jae LeVine, who decided to mix things up and hit left-handed for the first time.

The Mighty Mite eventually went down swinging, but made the pitcher work for it.

“I am incredibly proud of her (Jasmine),” said Wolf coach Deanna Rafferty. “Jae may have struck out, but she stood her ground.”

With Bailey and McGranahan poppin’ strikes from the pitcher’s circle, their teammates didn’t need to do much defensively, but when called upon, stepped up.

“Defensively we had a solid game,” Rafferty said. “The entire infield had a perfectly executed rundown situation finishing with an out.”

The Wolves will try to keep their new winning streak alive with back-to-back home games to kick off the new week.

They welcome Bellevue Christian to town Monday for a non-conference game, then face-off with Chimacum Tuesday.

That game is the rubber match for the two league rivals, who have split their first two games.

Both games kick-off at 4 PM.
