Madison McMillan

She’s found her groove.

Coupeville grad Madison McMillan is on a tear of late, hammering the ball at a wicked clip for a red-hot Edmonds College softball squad.

And Wednesday was a prime example, as the former Wolf bomber put together a stellar performance to help lift the Tritons to a doubleheader sweep of visiting Pierce College.

Winning 11-1 and 8-4, with McMillan delivering the go-ahead hit in the nightcap, Edmonds runs its win streak to 12 and sits at 12-1 heading into a busy weekend.

The Tritons host Douglas College Saturday and Skagit Valley College Sunday, playing four more games as long as Mother Nature cooperates.

Squaring off with Pierce, McMillan rapped a single in the opener, then delivered a three-hit, three-RBI, two-run, one-walk master class in the second game.

Her biggest blow was a two-run double in the bottom of the sixth which put Edmonds ahead for good at 6-4.

While she’s now a college standout, McMillan’s legend still looms large in Cow Town, where she played volleyball, basketball, and softball for CHS, helping lead the spikers and sluggers to the state tourney.

She’s a winner, at every level.

During her middle school track and field days, Tamsin Ward set a Coupeville record, earning 39 victories across three seasons, most for any CMS athlete ever, girl or boy.

Jump forward to 2026, and the supernova, now a high school freshman, isn’t missing a beat.

Opening the season in La Conner Wednesday, Ward claimed titles in both the shot put and high jump, slapping an exclamation point on Coupeville’s performance at a 12-team meet.

She was joined atop the victory podium by sophomore Wyatt Fitch-Marron, who soared to his own win in the high jump a year after finishing 7th at the 2B state meet in the same event.

Rounding out Coupeville’s winners were the quartet of Cyrus Sparacio, Brian Thompson, Malachi Somes, and Beckett Green, who hit the tape first in the day’s final event, the 4 x 400 relay.

That late win flipped the Wolf boys ahead of Friday Harbor in the team standings, with CHS nipping the Wolverines 90-88 to finish second behind La Conner (117).

On the girl’s side of things, Mount Vernon Christian (142.5) finished atop the heap, with La Conner (134), Providence Classical Christian (102), and Coupeville (75.5) rounding out the top four.

The meet consisted of all six Northwest 2B/1B League schools who compete in track — Coupeville, MVC, Concrete, Orcas Island, Friday Harbor, and La Conner — as well as Shoreline Christian, Lopez Island, Cedar Park Christian-Lynnwood, Grace Academy, Evangel Christian, and Providence Classical Christian.

“A great start to the season with a lot of new faces and a younger team than we’ve seen in the past, but just as competitive,” said Coupeville coaches Bob Martin and Elizabeth Bitting.

“Despite windy and muddy conditions, the team showed a lot of grit and teamwork.

“We’re excited to see how much they grow and develop throughout the season!”

It’s a busy first week of competition for the Wolves, who claimed 41 PR’s Wednesday.

After two days of practice, CHS returns to action Saturday with a trip to the Rainier Icebreaker.

Hazel Goldman and Co. will walk on by the bus Tuesday. (Julie Wheat photo)

Rain, rain, go away, we’ll play another day.

Mother Nature has been gunning for the Wolves since the start of “spring” sports and finally got ’em Tuesday.

The Coupeville High School girls’ tennis squad was slated to travel to Granite Falls for a non-conference rumble, but never made it on the bus, as liquid sunshine washed away a day’s worth of athletics.

Also getting knocked off the schedule were softball and baseball games which would have featured Orcas Island joining CHS in traveling to the city known as “The Big Burn.”

Seriously, that’s what Wikipedia says about Granite. Look it up.

Coupeville’s tennis match has been rescheduled for Apr. 20, which should give the wet weather time to improve.

Dahlia Miller launches an ace. (Julie Wheat photos)

Decent weather, bright future.

A new season of Coupeville High School girls’ tennis kicked off Monday under partially sunny prairie skies, with not a drop of rain to be found in the vicinity.

That allowed the Wolves, who will boast an expanded roster of 20+ netters when everyone is eligible, to square off with East Jefferson across eight pro set matches while still allowing the visiting Rivals to catch the early ferry back home.

Coupeville’s foe, which is a mashup of players from two schools — Chimacum and Port Townsend — made off with a razor-thin 3-2 victory in the varsity part of the competition, while the Wolves won two of three JV rumbles.

The afternoon’s most tense tussle came at first varsity doubles, where new partners Dahlia Miller and Aleksia Jump teamed up to pull out a victory in a tiebreak in a match which went back-and-forth.

The Wolves were rolling in the early going, East Jefferson rallied late to force the tiebreaker, then the CHS duo excelled in the white-hot spotlight as players from both teams crowded around the fence.

Miller, a superb singles player last season, sprayed several impressive winners into the alleyways, while Jump, who moved to tennis from track and field, sealed the win with an emphatic put away at the net on match point.

Coupeville won three doubles matches on the day, while #1 singles player Tenley Stuurmans methodically picked apart her foe, mixing artful drop shots with overpowering deep hits, keeping her counterpart flustered for much of the match.

If the road weather matches the home weather, the Wolves will get right back at it Tuesday, with a planned trip to Granite Falls for another non-conference tilt.

On her way to deliver another winner.

 

Monday’s results:

 

Varsity:

1st Singles — Tenley Stuurmans beat Gracie W. 8-2

2nd Singles — Savannah Coxsey lost to Autumn C. 8-0

1st Doubles — Dahlia Miller/Aleksia Jump beat Lucia F./Halsey E. 9-8(10-8)

2nd Doubles — Kauri Hamilton/Jovanah Villagomez lost to Zinnia B./Ursula S. 8-3

3rd Doubles — Rowan Stoner/Jade Peabody lost to Fern F./Livia L. 7-3

 

JV:

4th Doubles — Hailey Goldman/Hazel Goldman lost to Freya D./Elan N. 7-3

5th Doubles — Lakshmi Erickson/Kauri Hamilton beat Margot M./Zadie C. 5-1

6th Doubles — Miles Gerber/Savannah Coxsey beat Amelia H./Aubrie T. 8-0

Wicked weather, happy fans, as CHS spring sports teams are off to a 3-0 start. (Julie Wheat photo)

Nothing but wins.

While we’re only a week into “spring” sports action and still waiting for our first beam of sunlight on the cold, windswept prairie, the weather hasn’t slowed down Coupeville High School teams.

Wolf softball and baseball have combined to go 3-0 so far, with track and girls’ tennis slated to kick off their campaigns this coming week.

The netters are first up (weather permitting), with matches against East Jefferson and Granite Falls set for this coming Monday and Tuesday.

The first is as home, the second on the road.

Track travels to La Conner Wednesday for a Northwest 2B/1B League meet, before trekking further down the road Saturday for the Rainier Icebreaker meet.

And those winning diamond squads?

Both return to action Saturday with a trip to Bellingham to square off with Meridian.

We still have a long way to go, but here’s where things sit through Mar. 14:
