Let’s argue about stats!!

Perfect? No. Pretty close? Yes.

The stats game is a tricky one, especially when multiple people have been involved, and everything is being done live, often from less-than-desirable sight lines.

So, while no one is claiming the Coupeville High School football stats below are flawless (for one thing, we’re still missing numbers from one game), they at least give you a general idea of how the 2018 season has played out.

And it’s safe to say Sean Toomey-Stout, who leads the team in seven different categories, is far and away the team MVP.

Of that, there is no controversy.

Everything else? Let the arguing begin, while remembering, I am the messenger only.

And PS, if there’s someone out there with more football knowledge than me who wants to go through the footage for all eight games on HUDL and slap some refined season-to-date numbers on my doorstep, you know where to reach me.

Rip up the schedule!!

Posted in Football, Volleyball, tagged , , , , on October 21, 2018| Leave a Comment »

Scheduling changes will alter when you see Coupeville High School athletes like Raven Vick play this week. (Photo by JohnsPhotos.net)

Schedule? Where we’re going, we don’t need a schedule.

OK, actually we do, so everyone needs to pay attention, because the North Sound Conference just threw a wrench into this coming week’s plans.

Specifically, the changes concern Senior Night games for Coupeville High School volleyball, football, band and cheer.

The CHS home volleyball match against Sultan scheduled for Thursday, Oct. 25 has been bumped forward a night and will go down Wednesday, Oct. 24.

JV plays at 5:15, varsity at 7, and Wolf seniors Ashley Menges and Emma Smith will be honored before the varsity match.

Then, the CHS home football game against Granite Falls is leaving behind Friday Night Lights and also jumping forward a day.

The gridiron clash is now Thursday, Oct. 25, with kickoff at 7. Senior football players, cheerleaders and band members will all be honored before the game.

The changes are being made by the league because of the possibility of three football teams finishing in a tie for the fourth, and final, NSC playoff berth.

That would happen if Coupeville beats Granite and Sultan loses to league champ Cedar Park Christian.

It things play out that way, the three football teams would meet Saturday, Oct. 27, with two teams playing a half, then the winner facing off with the third team for the playoff berth.

By bumping the regular season finale from Friday to Thursday, it would give the teams an off day before the potential playoff.

Volleyball was bumped up, so Senior Nights wouldn’t conflict.

The result is the spikers will have an extra rest day before they start the district playoffs Oct. 27.

So, you’re saying there’s a chance?!!

Improbable, but not impossible.

Despite losing its first four league games, the Coupeville High School football team is still in the running for a playoff berth entering the final week of the regular season.

While the top three slots are clinched, the fourth, and final, spot is a three-way battle between the Wolves, Granite Falls and Sultan, and the scrap could go into overtime.

As we head towards the regular season finale Oct. 26, here’s what we know.

 

Final games:

Granite Falls (1-3) at Coupeville (0-4)

King’s (3-1) at South Whidbey (3-1)

Cedar Park Christian (4-0) at Sultan (1-3)

 

Who’s in:

CPC is the league champ and #1 seed, while King’s and South Whidbey play for the #2 and #3 berths.

 

The battle for #4:

If Granite beats Coupeville, it gets the final berth. The Tigers would have two wins, and even if Sultan also won, own a tiebreaker on the Turks, having beat them.

If Granite loses and Sultan upsets CPC, the Turks, with two wins, get the final berth.

If Coupeville wins and Sultan loses, it’s a three-way tie, with all three teams having one league win, and having won, and lost, against one of the teams they’re tied with.

 

So, if it’s a three-way tie, what happens:

Coupeville, Sultan and Granite meet Saturday, Oct. 27. Early word is the royal rumble would go down in Granite, and start time hasn’t been announced.

Depending on a blind draw, teams #1 and #2 would play one half of a game.

Loser is done, and exits the stadium on their way to a week #10 cross-over game with another non-playoff team.

Winner stays on to play a second half against team #3, with winner of that game getting the playoff berth.

 

So, you’re a playoff team:

The #4 seed out of the North Sound Conference, however they get there, hosts a loser-out playoff game Tuesday, Oct. 30 at 7 PM against the #3 seed from the Northwest Conference (likely Lynden Christian).

Win and you advance to a loser-out, winner-to-state game on the road either Nov. 2 or 3 against Cedar Park Christian.

Who let the Wolves out?!!

CHS boys (l to r) TJ Rickner, Chris Ruck, Sam Wynn, Uriah Kastner, Danny Conlisk and Kyle Burnett.

Surrounded by a pack of King’s runners, Mihill makes a stand as a lone Wolf.

South Whidbey’s girls finished 2nd on the day.

The Wolf boys explode off the starting line.

The postseason sprint begins.

Coupeville High School cross country began (hopefully) a three-week run through championship events with an appearance Saturday at the North Sound Conference meet at Lakewood High School.

Still to come are districts Oct. 27 at South Whidbey, and (possibly) state Nov. 3 in Pasco.

Saturday’s meet, which brought all three Island teams to the same location – Oak Harbor competed in the Wesco championships, while South Whidbey joined Coupeville in the NSC throw-down – also drew in wanderin’ paparazzi John Fisken.

And remember, purchases help fund scholarships for CHS student/athletes, so circle of life and all.

Close in style!!

Some things end, while others are just picking up steam.

Two Coupeville High School fall sports squads – girls soccer and boys tennis – brought their season to an end this past week.

Meanwhile, cross country, football and volleyball play on, with a mix of postseason and regular-season action left on the schedule.

The week ahead brings the district meet for the harriers Oct. 27, as they try and earn slots at the state cross country meet.

Meanwhile, football hosts Granite Falls Oct. 26.

The Wolves will celebrate departing players on Senior Night and still have a (faint) hope of punching their playoff ticket.

If they can’t get to the postseason, the Wolf gridiron squad is likely to get a cross-over game against another non-playoff team to wrap up the season during week #10.

Volleyball is flying high, and enters the final week of the regular season in second-place in the six-team North Sound Conference.

The Wolves have home games Oct. 23 against defending state champ King’s, and Oct. 25 against cellar dweller Sultan.

If everything goes perfectly, CHS could soar as high as sharing the league crown with King’s, but are guaranteed a slot in the double-elimination district tourney either way.
