After a week off, Scott Hilborn and Co. open Northwest 2B/1B League play at home against La Conner.
The view is nice from the top.
Two of the four Coupeville High School fall sports teams which keep win/loss records find themselves in first place as of this morning.
The high-flying Wolf volleyball team sits alone at 3-0 in Northwest 2B/1B League play, while the CHS girls are tied at 1-0 with defending champs Mount Vernon Christian.
Now, both of those teams, and Coupeville’s football, boys soccer, and cross country programs head into a busy week.
The Wolf spikers host Cedar Park Christian-Bothell Monday in a non-conference bout, then travel to Darrington Wednesday for a league rumble.
After that, volleyball closes the week with an appearance Saturday at a tourney in Sultan.
Coupeville’s soccer squads each play twice in the week ahead, with the girls traveling to MVC Tuesday, before hosting non-league rival Granite Falls Thursday.
The Wolf boys host Grace Academy Tuesday, and are off to visit Friday Harbor on Friday.
Out on the gridiron, Coupeville returns to action after a week off, hosting La Conner Friday in a major league battle.
Rounding out things, the CHS cross country program — the one which doesn’t keep win/loss records — runs three times.
Tuesday, the Wolves are at Orcas, Friday they’re home at Fort Casey, and Saturday brings a visit to the Roller Coaster Trail Run, hosted by King’s.

They ran with the big boys (and girls).
The Coupeville High School cross country team kicked off a new season Saturday with an appearance at the 42nd annual Carl Westling Invitational in Langley.
A day before, a storm ripped across Whidbey with ferocious winds turning the power off for much of the island.
But Saturday was fairly tranquil, offering the Wolves and first-year coach Paige Spangler a chance to strut their stuff.
Coupeville sent three girls to the line in the varsity race, while fielding a full seven-man varsity team and two runners in the JV rumble.
The Wolf boys held up very well, finishing 11th out of 13 teams in their division, despite the other squads all repping schools with larger student bodies.
Coupeville was the lone 2B team, with eight 1A schools, three 2A schools, and 4A Mariner also competing.
2A Cedarcrest claimed the team title, while Will Geisen of 2A Bellingham captured the individual crown, covering 5,000 meters in 16 minutes, 51.60 seconds.
On the girls side, Bellingham was the top team, with Kayla Aalpoel of 1A Meridian the first runner across the line in 19:20.70.
All together, the invitational featured runners from 29 high schools, while five middle schools competed in their own races.
Complete CHS results (5,000 meters):
GIRLS – Varsity:
Helen Strelow (65th) 26:21.00
Claire Mayne (74th) 30:30.10
Erica McGrath (75th) 34:40.40
BOYS – Varsity:
Mitchell Hall (54th) 20:05.80
Landon Roberts (64th) 20:35.80
Carson Field (65th) 20:37.90
Cole White (71st) 20:57.10
Thomas Strelow (76th) 21:17.90
Hank Milnes (80th) 21:28.00
Reiley Araceley (88th) 22:40.70
BOYS — JV:
Nick Wasik (84th) 24:25.80
Alex Clark (145th) 29:15.70

Even in defeat, Chelsea Prescott fills up the stat sheet.
The Coupeville High School grad played strongly Saturday, as she and her Medaille College teammates closed out the Buffalo State Women’s Volleyball Bengal Challenge.
The Mavericks fell in straights sets to Houghton College (25-18, 25-15, 25-16) and Alfred University (25-19, 25-22, 25-17), finishing 1-2 in the tourney.
Medaille is 3-6 on the season and returns to action Tuesday, Sept. 21 when it travels back to Buffalo State for a match with the Bengals.
Prescott and Co. are on the road for their next four matches, not playing on their own home court again until Oct. 6.
Saturday, the former Wolf picked up four kills and 11 digs against Houghton, then racked up a team-high five kills, a block assist and five more digs against Alfred.
During her freshman season of NCAA D-III volleyball, Prescott has played in all 27 sets, racking up 43 kills, 66 digs, seven service aces, four assists, a solo block, and four block assists.

Kyle Nelson summed up his day in four words.
Asked how the Coupeville High School girls soccer team had done Saturday, the veteran coach kept his post-game comments crisp and clear.
“Well, not so great.”
Coming off a season-opening home win against league rival La Conner, the Wolves trekked off Whidbey for game two, and found a barrage of goals awaiting them.
Facing off with East Jefferson, the result of Chimacum and Port Townsend combining their sports programs, Coupeville’s booters fell 9-0.
The loss evens the early-season record at 1-1.
The Wolves get right back at it next week, with two games, neither of which are likely to be easy.
Coupeville hits the road Tuesday, Sept. 21 to face defending Northwest 2B/1B League champ Mount Vernon Christian, which was a juggernaut last season.
The Hurricanes have picked right back up where they left off and are 4-0-1 overall, 1-0 in league play this season.
CHS then hosts 1A Granite Falls (2-2-1) Thursday, Sept. 23 in a non-conference tilt.
