This could be the start of something good.

Coupeville grad Joey Lippo collected three hits as the University of Maine at Presque Isle baseball squad snapped a nine-game losing streak on the diamond.

The Owls hammered the University of Maine at Farmington 12-4 in the second game of a doubleheader Tuesday, nabbing their first victory since March 13.

Now sitting at 2-14 on the season, Lippo and Co., who also had several games rained out recently, have 12 contests left on the schedule.

The former Wolf, currently in his senior season at UMPI, has been doing his part, hitting .318 with 20 hits, 14 RBI, and 10 runs.

Lippo leads the Owls in at-bats (65), triples (1), and RBI, while he’s #2 in batting average and hits.

He’s also collected 41 putouts while patrolling the outfield for Presque Isle.

During his CHS days, Lippo played tennis, basketball, and baseball for the Wolves, while at UMPI he has golfed in addition to his work on the diamond.

Along with raising the roof in the dugout, Farris also picked up her photographic tool and added to her already-impressive collection of pics for the yearbook, as seen in the snaps above and below.

She flew across the country, then soared across the water.

Coupeville grad Lucy Sandahl was busy directing traffic as a coxswain Sunday as the Seattle Pacific University 8+ boat competed in the prestigious Knecht Cup in Cherry Hill, New Jersey.

The Falcons squared off against top NCAA D-II teams on the Cooper River, claiming fourth place.

SPU also earned a third-place finish in the 4+ race.

The regatta attracted six of the top eight teams in D-II, led by top-ranked Central Oklahoma. Seattle Pacific sits at #3 in the most-recent coaches’ poll.

Sandahl and her rowers zipped across the 2,000-meter course in seven minutes, 7.95 seconds, finishing just two seconds out of second place.

Next up for Seattle Pacific is the Western Intercollegiate Rowing Association Championships April 27-28 on California’s Lake Natoma.

During her days in Coupeville, Sandahl was a two-sport star for the Wolves, playing volleyball and competing in track and field.

She is a senior at SPU.

Willie Smith would love it if gas prices came down right about now.

With Coupeville High School teams having eight of nine events on the road this coming week, the wheels on the busses will be goin’ round and round, prompting more than one fill-up.

That’ll keep the Wolf Athletic Director crunching the numbers and looking forward to the return of home games in the following weeks.

Three of four CHS teams spend their entire week away from Cow Town, with only track and field slated to be at home.

The throwers, runners, and jumpers welcome other teams to Whidbey Wednesday for the Coupeville Classic Invite, then head to North Kitsap Saturday for the Lil’ Norway Invitational.

Meanwhile, Wolf tennis goes to Friday Harbor Wednesday and University Prep Saturday, while CHS baseball hits Friday Harbor Tuesday and Mount Vernon Christian Friday.

Making the most road trips, Coupeville softball is off to Friday Harbor Tuesday, Blaine Friday, and Granite Falls Saturday.

As everyone preps snacks, gets their pillows fluffed, and prepares a play list for the time spent bumping along the backroads of America, a look at current win/loss records for sports which track that sort of thing.

Through April 14:
