The revolution may be televised, but not all Coupeville High School athletic contests will be.

There’s a problem with the camera system at Mickey Clark Field, which will prevent Friday’s home football game against La Conner and Saturday’s boys soccer tilt with Lopez Island from being streamed.

The NFHS Network, which provides cameras to schools, is sending a replacement part for the broken doohickey in question, but the package won’t arrive in time for this weekend’s games.

So, if you can’t be at the games in person, you’ll have to go old school and patiently wait for the ink-stained wretches of the media to report on the contests.

Good thing Coupeville Sports is so darn quick about doing that.

Maybe they just shouldn’t play.

Despite having last Friday’s road rumble against Cascade (Leavenworth) cancelled by wildfire smoke, the Coupeville High School football team moved up in the Associated Press state poll.

The Wolves cracked the chart a week ago at #10 and moved up a slot to #9 Wednesday when the latest vote totals were released.

Coupeville, which received seven points a week ago, is up to 18 points, just a single point behind #8 Pe Ell/Willapa Valley.

The Wolves put their 5-1 mark on the line Friday when they host Northwest 2B/1B League rival La Conner.

A win on Senior Night will clinch at least a tie for Coupeville’s first football league title since 1990.

And now that we know what the human voters think of the Wolves, what do the computers say?

Both Evans Rankings and the Washington Interscholastic Activities Association’s RPI data have CHS at #6 among 2B teams.

 

Associated Press 2B poll for week 8:

1. Napavine – (7-0) – 90 poll points
2. Okanogan – (7-0) – 81
3. Toledo – (6-1) – 61
4. Lind-Ritzville/Sprague – (6-1) – 58
5. Columbia (Burbank) – (6-1) – 54
6. Raymond – (6-1) – 42
7. Chewelah (Jenkins) – (5-2) – 36
8. Pe Ell/Willapa Valley – (4-3) -19
9. Coupeville – (5-1) – 18
10. River View – (6-1) – 11

They got their well-deserved moment in the spotlight.

A day before the Northwest 2B/1B League Championships are scheduled to go down in Mount Vernon, the Coupeville High School cross country squad honored its seniors.

Current CHS coach Paige Spangler, and middle school running guru Elizabeth Bitting — who has worked extensively with all involved — paid tribute to five Wolves.

Seniors Claire Mayne, Mitchell Hall, Tate Wyman, Cristina McGrath, and Helen Strelow have been at the forefront as Coupeville revived and rebuilt its harrier program, and they leave behind a trail of success.

Bitting, who coached the Class of 2023 seniors in both middle school and high school, reminisces about the early days.

Sweet success.

It’s official.

On to the postseason!

Students snapping students.

With Coupeville Sports in its 10th year of existence, you always want to find new ways to keep things evolving.

Thanks to Coupeville High School yearbook teacher Jackie Saia and her student photographers, we’ve been able to run more photos from different sources than normal.

And, when it’s teenagers behind the camera, and teenagers in front of the camera, as in these Wolf cheer pics, there’s often a different feel to the photos, I’ve found.

There’s less of a remove than what you sometimes get when the photographer is an adult, and the pics seem to capture a different side of the athletes.

At least that’s what I think.

“It’s a new stat story!”

The numbers continue to soar.

There have been 12 Coupeville High School varsity volleyball matches played this season, with 12 Wolves seeing floor time for Cory Whitmore’s squad.

From fresh-faced newcomers to well-seasoned veterans, the CHS spikers have combined to post an 8-4 mark so far, thanks in large part to their willingness to share the workload on both offense and defense.

When all is said and done however, everyone always like to take a gander at their own personal stat line to see where they rank.

So, with numbers compiled from CHS coaches, a look at individual season stats through Oct. 19:

 

Player Kills Digs Block-Solo Block-Assist Assists Aces
Maddie Georges 10 97 1 2 288 59
Alita Blouin 2 184 15 16
Lyla Stuurmans 53 41 2 3 15
Ryanne Knoblich 82 89 2 1 1 24
Mia Farris 76 10 1 4 1 12
Jill Prince 65 6 2 6 1
Grey Peabody 90 10 1 3
