Ava Lucero was feelin’ it.

The Coupeville High School hoops hotshot accounted for all but one of her team’s points Friday night but a well-balanced Orcas Island squad proved to be too much to overcome for the Wolf JV girls.

Lucero banked in a game-high 18 points, hitting a pair of three-balls and tickling the twines on six of eight free throws, but the visiting Vikings had four players score eight or more as they captured a 45-19 victory.

The loss, coming in the first game for Coupeville’s JV since Jan. 12, drops the Wolf young guns to 0-5 in Northwest 2B/1B League action, 2-8 overall.

Alita Blouin’s squad had sat for a bit as neither Darrington nor Concrete — the last two CHS foes — have a JV team this season.

Orcas, which has been playing on a more consistent basis, jumped out to a 17-6 lead after one quarter of play Friday, then stretched the margin to 31-11 by the half and 41-14 through three frames.

Coupeville’s other point came courtesy 8th grader Anna Powers, who dropped in a free throw.

Cami Van Dyke, Emma Cushman, Zayne Roos, Olivia Hall, Taylor Marrs, Allie Powers, Finley Helm, Elizabeth Marshall, and Willow-Leedy Bonifas all saw floor time, bringing a fiery intensity to their defensive work.

The Wolves hit the road for two of their final three games this season, traveling to Mount Vernon Christian this coming Tuesday before hosting their home finale Friday, Jan. 30 against La Conner.

The final JV clash, set for Feb. 6, is set to go down on Friday Harbor.

Josh Stockdale was a one-man wrecking crew.

Pouring in 21 points Tuesday in Concrete, the Coupeville High School junior outscored his hosts by himself, spurring the Wolf JV boys’ basketball squad to a 57-17 win.

The victory lifts CHS to 5-1 in Northwest 2B/1B League play, 6-6 overall.

Tuesday’s tilt was a lopsided affair from start to finish, as the Wolves exploded out to a 16-1 lead by the first break.

Stockdale and Nathan Coxsey both dropped in five points during the opening frame, as Coupeville put the game well out of reach.

Concrete, which had great difficulty scoring in three of the four quarters, did make a stand in the second, outscoring the Wolves 12-9 to cut the deficit back slightly to 25-13 at the half.

But after that it was all Wolves, all the time, with Stockdale banking in 15 of his 21 after halftime.

Coupeville used a 12-4 surge in the third to seal the deal, before blowing up the scoreboard in the fourth to the tune of 20-0.

Khanor Jump knocked down 10 points in support of Stockdale’s efforts, while Coxsey tickled the twines for nine and Ayden Warren rattled the rim for eight.

Liam Lawson (5) and Brian Thompson (4) rounded out the offensive attack, with Trent Thule and Jaden Flores Garcia also seeing floor time for the Wolves.

It was a deadly two-pronged attack.

Using a stifling full-court press in the early going Friday, the Coupeville High School JV boys’ basketball squad cracked visiting Darrington, then finished the job by getting hot on the offensive end of the floor as well.

By the time the night was done, the Wolves had a 45-22 win in hand, which carries them to 4-1 in Northwest 2B/1B League play, 5-6 overall.

With three wins in their last four games, the CHS young guns will try and keep the good times flowing when they hit the road Tuesday to travel to the wilds of Concrete.

Coupeville busted out to a 15-7 lead after one quarter of play against the Loggers, before carrying a 19-14 advantage into the halftime break.

The second half was all Wolves, all the time, with 11-2 and 15-6 runs across the third and fourth quarters, respectively.

Jayden McManus poured in a game-high 19 points to spark Coupeville’s attack, while Josh Stockdale backed him up by banking in 11 more, including the team’s lone three-ball.

Nathan Coxsey (5), Liam Lawson (4), Khanor Jump (4), and Brian Thompson (2) also scored, with Ayden Warren and Jaden Flores Garcia rounding out the rotation.

Coupeville enjoyed one of its best performances at the free throw line this season, netting eight of 11 charity shots with Coxsey draining five of six.

Everything was clicking.

And I mean everything.

Getting contributions from all 11 players in uniform Monday, the Coupeville High School JV girls’ basketball team rolled to an impressive road win.

Scorching host Auburn Adventist Academy 42-12, the Wolves get to 2-7 and head home to prepare for a Friday night showdown with Darrington.

Alita Blouin’s squad was dominant Monday in every aspect of the game, rolling out to a 14-3 lead by the first break.

From there, the Wolves stretched the lead to 22-7 at the half and 35-9 through three quarters of play.

CHS spread out the offensive love, with Ava Lucero rippling the nets for a game-high 12 points and Cami Van Dyke banking in 11 of her own.

Lucero splashed home a pair of three-balls, while Van Dyke knocked down a fourth quarter trey to keep Auburn at bay.

Anna Powers (6), Taylor Marrs (6), Zayne Roos (5), and Willow Leedy-Bonifas (2) rounded out the balanced attack, while Finley Helm, Elizabeth Marshall, Allie Powers, Olivia Hall, and Emma Cushman also saw floor time.

He who scores last often scores best.

Pulling out the game in the final two-minutes plus, the Auburn Adventist Academy JV boys’ basketball squad held off hard-charging Coupeville Monday, making off with a 45-37 victory.

The road loss, coming against a non-conference foe, drops the Wolves to 4-6 on the season, with a home clash against Darrington on Friday next up on the schedule.

Monday’s melee started badly for Coupeville, then got a lot better, before falling apart a bit down the home stretch.

Auburn scraped out a 7-4 lead through one quarter of play, before really ramping things up with a 20-8 surge in the second frame.

The Wolves didn’t buckle, however, as they roared back behind a third-quarter scoring explosion from Khanor Jump.

The CHS sophomore pumped in eight of his game-high 16 in the frame to help propel his squad on a 17-4 burst, cutting the deficit all the way back to just 31-29.

But it wasn’t to be for the Wolves, as Auburn nailed a couple of late three-balls to hold on for the narrow win.

Jayden McManus banked in eight points in support of Jump, while Liam Lawson (6), Josh Stockdale (5), and Ayden Warren (2) also scored.

Trent Thule, Chris Zenz, Brian Thompson, Nathan Coxsey, and Jaden Flores Garcia also saw floor time for the Wolves.
