Stat after stat, that’s that.

Varsity volleyball rings up solid numbers

The halfway point is coming up fast.

Saturday’s non-conference home rumble with Forks will leave the Coupeville High School varsity volleyball squad with seven matches in the books, and seven to go.

The Wolves are 2-4 heading to the weekend, but that’s deceptive.

Three of those losses came in five-set thrillers and another defeat was against undefeated Neah Bay.

Flip a point here or there and CHS could be sitting at 5-1.

But it is what it is, and the Wolves, fresh off a win over Friday Harbor, are intent on putting together a successful second-half run.

As they prep for Forks, a look at season-to-date numbers for the scrappy spikers:

Tomorrow’s stars already own the gym.

Coupeville High School volleyball coaches and players kicked off a series of skills camps, and first up was the K-6 group, as seen in the pics above and below.

They’re coming for all your titles. All of them, I said.

The joint was jumpin’.

Friday night’s boys’ basketball playoff thriller between Coupeville and La Conner played out in front of a standing room only crowd at the CHS gym.

In between sips of Diet Coke, wanderin’ paparazzi John Fisken captured a wide range of Wolf athletes, fans, and school employees as they created a wall of noise.

Look closely, and you can hear the pictures.

JV spikers slay the beast

The future belongs to them.

As well as the present.

Sending a shockwave across the region, the Coupeville High School JV volleyball squad finally took down the big dogs Tuesday night.

After narrowly falling short in their two previous attempts, the Wolves not only beat visiting La Conner, but they also swept the Braves right out of the CHS gym.

Winning 25-16, 25-18, 25-15, Coupeville’s young guns wrap a season in which they went 8-1 in Northwest 2B/1B League play, 12-2 overall.

The victory also serves notice to La Conner, which has been the undisputed heavyweight champ of the NWL for decades.

While the Braves JV has not been as flawless as the La Conner varsity, you can count the number of league losses the second squad has taken on one hand … and still have most of your fingers left.

Third-year Coupeville JV coach Ashley Menges and her spikers have been getting closer and closer to unseating their big-game rivals, and Tuesday night everything clicked.

The Wolves exploded out of the gate, thanks to Katie Marti, Taylor Brotemarkle, and Teagan Calkins cranking away from the service stripe, while Jada Heaton stalked the net, ready to inflict damage on anything which came her way.

Up 17-6 at one point, with La Conner’s coaching staff sitting stunned and slumped in their chairs, Coupeville never let the Braves have a moment to consider a comeback.

Two big kills from Calkins, including a buzzsaw of a slicer on set point, sent the Wolf faithful into pandemonium, and they never had a reason to calm down after that.

Set two was a little closer — the Wolves actually trailed early at 6-5 — but once CHS regained the lead, it held fast.

Tip winners from Marti and Calkins helped stretch a one-point lead out to nine points, while Brotemarkle couldn’t be contained as she fired darts and daggers on her serve.

With the win in hand for Coupeville, the teams played a third set for practice — a quirk seemingly reserved for the world of JV volleyball.

Riding an emotional high, then getting a floor-buckling kill from Aby Wood and long service runs from Marti and Johnson, the Wolves kept the joyous fire in their hearts raging.

Oktober Frost came off the bench to delight the crowd with several strong serves, while Heaton mashed the volleyball like it had personally insulted her.

The message was clear, and loudly delivered.

Coupeville’s young spikers are here to dominate, today and tomorrow.

You’ve been warned, world.
