Scoring runs is dusty work. (Photos by JohnsPhotos.net)

Concrete was the cure.

A Coupeville High School varsity baseball squad which had tallied 20 runs across its first seven games topped that total in just five innings of play Friday afternoon.

Rapping out hit after hit, including three separate three-run triples, the Wolves pasted their hosts, cracking Concrete 25-7 in a game mercy-ruled.

The win lifts CHS to 2-2 in Northwest 2B/1B League action, 3-5 overall heading into a home showdown Saturday with next door neighbor South Whidbey.

Coupeville’s offense was unstoppable Friday, rolling up a season-high 20 hits and 11 walks. Overall, 14 of the 16 Wolves to see the field reached base.

Concrete had one brief glimmer of hope in the top of the first, then things went sideways in a hurry.

Wolf leadoff hitter Peyton Caveness crunched a triple but was nabbed trying to come home on a ball off the bat of Landon Roberts.

After that, it was all Coupeville, all day.

CHS pushed seven runs across in the first, with Yohannon Sandles delivering a two-run single and Aiden O’Neill clearing the bags with a triple to right field.

With Seth Woollet dealing on the mound and punching an RBI single of his own through the Lion defense, the Wolves shoved the lead out to 12-0.

Caveness delivered his team’s second three-run triple to cap the early push.

Peyton Caveness prepares to get dramatic.

While Concrete scraped out a pair of runs in its half of the second, Coupeville scored in every inning, with the advantage eventually ballooning out to 25-2 through the top of the fifth.

In the third, the big blow was an RBI double from Jack Porter, while in the fourth it was an RBI triple from the very same batter.

The fifth was brutal for Concrete, as the hometown nine couldn’t get off the field quickly enough, surrendering eight more runs.

Jack Porter, having himself a day, blasted Coupeville’s third, and final, three-run triple, with Camden Glover, Carson Grove and Jayden Little all plating runners with base-knocks.

Grove, just an 8th grader, was superb in relief, tossing two shutout innings for the Wolves, holding his foes to a single hit across the third and fourth.

Concrete, looking for a little redemption, or at least a positive note to end its tortured day, scored five runs in the waning sunshine in the bottom of the fifth, but it was too little, too late.

Woollet, Grove, Matthew Gilbert, and Glover combined for the win, with the group racking up nine strikeouts.

At the plate, Jack Porter was a man afire, blasting two doubles and two triples while being credited with a team-high five hits and five RBI.

Caveness collected a pair of triples as part of a three-hit day, while White, Grove, and Sandles each added a pair of singles.

Cole White can kill you with his bat or glove.

Rounding out the hit parade were O’Neill (3B), Glover (2B), Johnny Porter (1B), Gilbert (1B), Little (1B), and Coop Cooper (1B).

Glover and O’Neill both walked three times, with Aidyn McDermott, Sandles, Roberts, and Cooper showcasing eagle eyes while collecting a free base.

Easton Green and 8th grader Nick Laska also saw playing time, with the latter making his varsity debut.

Saturday’s rumble with South Whidbey, which is a rematch from earlier in the season, is scheduled to start at 1:00 PM.

It’ll be part of a busy day on the prairie, with the Wolf softball squad slated to host Onalaska in a doubleheader starting at the same time.

In other words, a perfect time to do some spring cleaning in the morning, then bring your no longer needed DVD’s down to be left next to my green ‘n dirty Xterra in the parking lot as I build a secret underground shrine to Videoville’s glory days.

Just sayin’.

Logan Martin lets it fly. (Photo courtesy Bob Martin)

Logan Martin traveled across the USA, then threw the hammer almost all the way back.

The Coupeville grad, now a sophomore at Central Washington University, earned 2nd place (out of 38 competitors) Friday at the Bobcat Invitational in San Marcos.

Operating at the Texas State Track and Field Complex, Martin chucked his implement 177 feet, three inches.

That was a season best showing for the former Wolf and left him nearly eight feet in front of the third-best thrower.

Matt Thomas of Grand Valley State won, launching the eighth-best throw (200-01) in NCAA D-II action this spring.

During his time in Cow Town, Martin was a standout soccer, tennis, and basketball player, who earned three 2nd place medals at state championship events during his senior season of track and field.

Central Washington returns to action April 5 at the John Knight Twilight meet in Monmouth, Oregon.

It wasn’t perfect, but it’ll do.

Coming off a string of first-place team performances, the Coupeville High School track and field squad coasted into spring break with a decent, if not spectacular outing Thursday afternoon.

Competing against 10 other teams in Mount Vernon, the Wolves claimed five wins and 40 PRs en route to finishing second in the boys’ team battle, and third in the girl’s rumble.

Host Mount Vernon Christian claimed both titles, edging the CHS boys 139-133.5 and romping past La Conner 156-105.5 on the girl’s side.

The Wolf female crew finished with 93 points.

Coupeville did sweep the pole vault trophies during one of the “colder, wetter meets” veteran CHS coach Bob Martin has experienced.

Getting warmer the higher in the air they sailed, Carly Burt and Cael Wilson soared over the bar in style.

Other wins came from Nick Guay (High Jump), Carson Field (1600) and the boys 4 x 100 relay unit.

That foursome was comprised of Marquette Cunningham, Wilson, Preston Epp, and Guay.

Surviving and thriving in the less-than-stellar weather, the Wolves held up well.

“Despite facing adverse conditions, they did amazing!” Martin said. “Their resilience and adaptability are commendable.

“We saw a lot of great performances today with many athletes setting new PR’s and selflessly participating in events outside of their comfort zone.”

Coupeville, which reached the halfway point of the regular season Thursday, is now off until April 13, when it travels to Forks for the Lions Club Invitational.

They’re out there, if you look hard enough.

With their home stomping grounds out of service this spring as new courts are built, Coupeville High School netters are on a season-long road trip.

But enterprising yearbook photographers tracked down their fellow Wolves playing at South Whidbey, and the pics above and below come to us courtesy them.

Kauri Hamilton flicks a winner.

Small in numbers, big in talent.
