There’s a second Wolf in the water.

Coupeville High School swim ace Finn Price has spent the past two seasons training and traveling with South Whidbey and Kamiak, as CHS doesn’t have its own pool program.

Now, Wolf freshman Alexandra Lo is making the journey up to Oak Harbor, where she competes as a Wolf while sharing the water at the John Vanderzicht Pool with the Wildcats.

A veteran of the chlorine world from a three-year run with the North Whidbey Aquatic Club, Lo has been swimming in events such as freestyle, medley, and breaststroke.

After the high school seasons wraps, she’ll hop right back in the pool and rejoin her NWAC teammates.

Alexandra Lo, whose older sister Elizabeth is the CHS cheer manager this fall, previously ran cross country in middle school, where she earned the Cascade League’s first-ever sportsmanship award as a 7th grader.

Heading for the finish line.

Gridiron giants shake the scoreboard

The Wolves can light up a scoreboard.

Seven games into the season, the Coupeville High School football team is averaging just a hair under 27 points a game.

Sitting at 4-3 heading into Senior Night this coming Friday, CHS gets a visit from non-conference foe Winlock, an 0-6 team which has surrendered 44 points a night.

That number would likely be even higher, but one of those losses is a 2-0 forfeit to Mossyrock.

For Coupeville, the scoring leader has been junior quarterback Chase Anderson, who tops the team even with having missed an early-season clash with Granite Falls thanks to an injury.

Where he and his teammates sit through week seven:

 

Touchdowns:

Chase Anderson – 10
Jack Porter – 6
Davin Houston – 5
Marquette Cunningham – 2
Johnny Porter – 2
Liam Blas – 1
Hunter Bronec – 1

 

Conversions:

Anderson — 2
Blas — 1
Cunningham – 1
Houston – 1

 

PATs:

Anderson — 10

 

Field Goals:

Anderson – 2

 

Points:

Anderson — 80
Ja. Porter – 36
Houston — 32
Cunningham — 14
Jo. Porter – 12
Blas — 8
Bronec – 6

Saturdays are for team building.

Giving up half their weekend break, Coupeville High School JV volleyball players and coaches spent Saturday at a tournament in Bellingham, and the benefits were many.

“It was actually a pretty good day!” said CHS coach Ashley Menges.

“It was a long one, early morning, and a lot of playing time for everyone.

“We had a lot of really good conversations throughout the day and learned a lot of lessons.”

Coupeville split its players into two squads, with Menges and fellow coach Scout Smith each taking one.

Both units played strongly, with the first group claiming second place in its bracket.

“Overall, really good day all things considered, and the girls played REALLY well,” Menges said.

“They were super focused throughout the day, implementing change immediately. I’m super happy with how the day went!”

Wolf grads chase college sports dreams

The uniforms have changed, but the dream remains the same.

Former Coupeville High School athletes Nezi Keiper and Ben Smith are competing at the college level this fall, operating in different states and different sports.

Keiper is a freshman defender on the Edmonds College women’s soccer team and brings the same rough-and-tumble playing style to the pitch which endeared her to Wolf fans.

At a recent game against Skagit Valley College, she got to run into Lauren Marrs, a fab frosh goaltender who suits up for SVC.

Marrs was a standout athlete for Coupeville in her younger days, continuing through middle school, before attending Oak Harbor High School from her freshman season on.

Across the country, Smith is a senior linebacker for Concordia University in Chicago.

He’s racked up 10 tackles, including one for a loss, while playing his first season with the Cougars.

Chasing titles, putting up wins

Things are ramping up.

As we move into the latter stages of October, fall sports teams will begin deciding league titles and making the push for the playoffs.

Or just flat out starting the postseason in some cases.

Coupeville High School cross country is the first to begin its postseason trek with an appearance this Thursday, Oct. 24 at the Northwest 2B/1B League Championships in Mount Vernon.

For the undefeated Wolf volleyball squad, there are two road trips on the docket.

A victory in Concrete Thursday will give CHS the undisputed conference crown, while a non-league rumble Saturday in Neah Bay will be a great test for a team looking to play deep into the season.

Meanwhile, the somewhat surprising Wolf soccer squad, which sits in second place in an ultra-competitive conference, travels to Friday Harbor on Tuesday, then to Lopez Island Thursday for two stiff challenges.

Rounding out things is CHS football, which celebrates Senior Night Friday when it hosts Winlock in a non-conference tilt.
