Tennis balls are flying once more.

The weather was decent Tuesday, and the Coupeville High School girls’ net squad took advantage, traveling to Port Townsend for the season opener.

After a ferry trip, the Wolves clashed with East Jefferson, which is the mashup between former CHS league rivals Chimacum and Port Townsend.

The visitors swept the varsity singles, with the hosts bouncing back to take the doubles matchups, ultimately pulling out a tense 3-2 non-conference victory.

It was a good start for a Wolf team which has increased numbers from a year ago and will get to host matches this season after work on new courts prevented that from happening last spring.

In fact, Coupeville will play its first match on the courts which now sit next to the CHS gym this Friday, when East Jefferson returns the favor and travels to Cow Town for a rematch.

 

Tuesday’s results:

 

Varsity:

1st Singles — Tenley Stuurmans beat Rennie O’Donnell 6-2, 6-1

2nd Singles — Dahlia Lewis beat Juliette O’Hara 6-1, 6-0

1st Doubles — Brynn Parker/Ember Light lost to Lucia Fields/Gracie Witherwidge 6-1, 6-0

2nd Doubles — Kauri Hamilton/Sofia Phay lost to Liuia Lee/Brooke Tomasetti 6-3, 6-2

3rd Doubles — Delanie Lewis/Miles Gerber lost to Olivia Larson/Calliope Mosher 6-1, 6-0

 

JV:

4th Doubles — Samantha Wallace/Hailey Goldman lost to Zinna Blachley/Ursla Schmidt 7-1

5th Doubles — Rowan Stoner/Chloe Ferguson lost to Sienna V./Risespan 4-3

Get your farewells ready a little quicker.

Senior Night for Coupeville High School girls soccer has been bumped from Oct. 23 to Oct. 16 after East Jefferson cancelled a non-conference game with the Wolves.

That means the finale for seven CHS seniors will come against Sultan, in what will be the last game in a four-game homestand at Mickey Clark Field.

Coupeville’s final two regular-season games are on the road.

East Jefferson, which is the result of Chimacum and Port Townsend combining their sports programs, had to drop the Oct. 23 game to make way for a rescheduled league game.

That clash was originally a victim of Covid.

And the never-ending schedule changes continue to fall like rain drops on a Pacific Northwest afternoon…

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.

Covid ain’t got nothin’ on the wind.

The reality of life on an island once again came to the forefront Friday, as an incoming storm killed a planned football game.

Coupeville High School was supposed to travel to Port Townsend for a non-conference game with East Jefferson, but the game was cancelled an hour before the Wolves were set to board the bus.

With several ferry runs between Coupeville and Port Townsend already being cancelled today, the chances of getting to the mainland were limited, and the chances of getting back even slimmer.

A wind advisory, with predictions of winds gusting up to 55 miles per hour, is in effect through 8 PM Friday night.

The game will not be rescheduled.

Instead Coupeville (0-2) moves forward into Northwest 2B/1B League play, hosting La Conner next Friday, Sept. 24.
