The finish line approaches

Meanwhile, Savina Wells goes about her business.

One week to go.

The regular season comes to a close for fall sports as October winds its way towards Halloween.

Barring a football upset (more on that in a second), every Coupeville High School team with the exception of volleyball (and maybe cross country) wraps play by Thursday of this coming week.

Wolf boys soccer exits with back-to-back road games at Orcas Island Oct. 26 and Providence Classical Christian Oct. 28, while girls soccer closes at Friday Harbor Oct. 26.

Cross country travels to Lakewood Oct. 28 for tri-districts. A top-two team finish or a top-14 individual time advances you to state.

Football is the only CHS team at home next week, hosting Friday Harbor Oct. 28 (that’s a Thursday).

Lose, and the Wolves are done.

Win, avenging a 32-6 loss from earlier in the season, and Coupeville finishes in a tie with Friday Harbor.

If that happens, the two teams meet again two days later at a neutral site to play half of a game, with a trip to state at stake.

Meanwhile, the lone Wolf team assured of playing in Nov. is volleyball.

A road trip to Mount Vernon Christian Oct. 28 ends the regular season, then Coupeville is off to La Conner Nov. 3 for the district tourney.

Once there, the Wolves will need to beat Auburn Adventist and the two-time defending state champ tourney hosts to earn a ticket to state.

Welcome to crunch time

Sophie Martin is a force of nature.

Time to get tense.

As fall sports unspool and we head deeper into October, the chase for playoff berths becomes more frantic.

Every game counts, but late-season games often matter even more.

What we know at this point — Coupeville High School girls and boys soccer are not playoff-bound, while volleyball absolutely is, and football will likely join the spikers in the postseason.

Meanwhile, cross country is its own thing, with its own unique path to follow, and boys tennis has been benched since the season was called-off before it began.

The week ahead is perhaps the busiest single stretch of days for Wolf teams, at least in terms of home games — and especially if you include middle school volleyball in that equation.

CHS cross country hosts the Northwest 2B/1B League Championships Thursday, Oct. 21, with Fort Casey State Park the hub for all activity,

Meanwhile, girls soccer hits the road Oct. 20 to play front-runner Mount Vernon Christian, and football hosts Cascade (Leavenworth) Oct. 22 for Homecoming.

Boys soccer and volleyball are the most active Wolf programs, combining for six games and a tournament in a six-day span.

The CHS booters host Friday Harbor Oct. 19, travel to Cedar Park Christian-Lynnwood Oct. 21, and host Lopez Island Oct. 23, with the last of those games being Coupeville’s Senior Night.

Meanwhile, Wolf volleyball travels to South Whidbey Oct. 18, hosts La Conner Oct. 19 and Friday Harbor Oct. 21, then closes the week Oct. 23 at the Island Invitational in Langley.

Where things stand through Oct. 17:

Northwest League boys soccer:

School League Overall
Orcas Island 9-1-0 9-1-0
PC Christian 8-1-0 8-1-0
Friday Harbor 7-3-0 7-3-0

Rack the balls, freeze the standings

We’re done.

The basketball season, and the school athletic year, came to a close Tuesday, with the La Conner girls and Mount Vernon Christian boys clinching Northwest 2B/1B League hoops titles.

Coupeville finished 4th on the girls side and 3rd in boys action, though the latter was by a razor-thin margin.

The Wolf boys (8-4) tied with MVC (8-3) for the most wins — and beat the Hurricanes twice — but finished a half-game back after MVC declined to host Orcas Island after that school requested no fans at its road games during the pandemic.

Friday Harbor, at 7-3, with a pair of one-point wins over Coupeville, edges the Wolves for second-place by having a slightly better winning percentage.

Final league standings for the pandemic-altered 2021 hoops campaign:

 

Northwest League boys basketball:

School League Overall
MV Christian 8-3 8-5
Friday Harbor 7-3 7-3
Coupeville 8-4 8-4
Orcas Island 5-3 5-4
La Conner 6-5 6-7
Darrington 2-6 2-6
Concrete 0-12 0-12

 

Northwest League girls basketball:

Still large and in charge

The fall belongs to La Conner, the school year to Coupeville.

We’ve made it through two of three seasons during this pandemic-fractured campaign, with winter sports set to kick off Monday and finish in mid-June.

Fall sports, which were played second and not first as normal, featured a very-competitive four-way battle for supremacy, with La Conner coming out with 17 varsity wins across volleyball, football, boys soccer, and girls soccer.

Cross country doesn’t have won/loss records, and boys tennis was cancelled after Friday Harbor chose not to play any sports this season.

The 17 wins was a big bounce back for the always-tough Braves, who won exactly zero games during spring sports.

But fall is La Conner’s sweet spot, thanks to a two-time defending state champ volleyball team which went 10-0 this time around, sweeping all 30 sets it played.

Mount Vernon Christian, paced by its title-winning girls soccer squad, was second with 15 fall varsity wins, followed by Orcas Island (13, with 10 from boys soccer), and Coupeville, which collected 12.

Concrete and Darrington were far back, with just two wins apiece, while Friday Harbor took the zero, cause you can’t win if you don’t play.

When we add fall and spring together, the Wolves, who went 25-3 in the spring while playing softball, baseball, and girls tennis, go back out in front, and by a lot.

With just basketball left to play — we don’t count wrestling, because CHS doesn’t wrestle, and this blog isn’t called, say, Darrington Sports — here’s the school year to date varsity win totals:

Coupeville — 37
Orcas Island — 20
La Conner — 17
Mount Vernon Christian — 16
Friday Harbor — 11
Darrington — 10
Concrete — 2

 

Final fall sports standings:

Orcas Island 10-0-0 10-0-0

PC Christian 3-5-1 3-5-1
Coupeville 1-5-0 1-5-0
Grace Academy 0-6-1 0-6-1

Get your hot ‘n toasty standings

One week left on the schedule, but how many games will actually be played?

All we know for certain is that this pandemic-shortened fall sports season ends next Saturday, May 8.

After that, whomever is left standing is off to play basketball as the 2020-2021 school year winds towards its finish.

If the schedule holds — and that’s been extra-tricky of late during the Age of Coronavirus — Coupeville High School teams have 10 events in the final six days.

Wolf cross country hosts the Northwest 2B/1B League Championships Thursday at Fort Casey State Park.

Then, you have CHS football at home Saturday for Senior Night against Concrete.

Both Coupeville soccer teams have two games remaining, with the girls traveling to La Conner Monday, then hosting Mount Vernon Christian Friday.

The Wolf male booters host league leader Orcas Island Monday, before finishing on the road Wednesday at La Conner.

And then there’s volleyball, which hopes to play four matches in the final five days.

Tuesday, the Wolf spikers travel to MVC, they’re home Wednesday against Darrington, back on the road Friday to La Conner, before closing Saturday at home against Orcas in a game with no fans.

Maybe…

When you look at the NWL standings, it’s easy to see how the pandemic has messed with schedules, as mid-season quarantines for several programs have left teams with radically-different number of games played.

But on we plow.
