The stats count twice as much moving forward.

Stat after stat, that’s that.

Coupeville High School coaches and players record them, and I get the page hits for pushing the numbers agenda on the public.

We’re back again, 12 varsity matches into the season, with two more regular-season rumbles left on the schedule before the playoffs begin.

Want to know who has the most kills? Who takes delight in digs?

Look no further.

Well, actually, I mean, keep scrolling down through the rest of the story, of course.

But you know what I mean.

Different town, same big win.

Less than 24 hours after polishing off a private school foe, the Coupeville High School varsity volleyball squad went to Seattle Tuesday and repeated the feat.

The victim this time was The Bush School, which welcomed the Wolves to Floyd Webb Court, then got promptly swept right off the floor.

With the 25-19, 25-15, 25-14 non-conference victory, Coupeville runs its winning streak to six straight, getting to 7-4 on the season.

Next up is a trip Thursday to Darrington for a Northwest 2B/1B League clash.

Win there, and the Wolves bounce back into third-place in the NWL standings heading into the final week of the regular season.

Tuesday night might not have been a conference clash, but it was a good test for the Wolves as they find their stride.

“It was a great trip for the varsity, and I’m proud of the way we made the space ours,” said Coupeville coach Cory Whitmore.

“From the start of the first set to the end of the third, our group really commanded the tempo of the game, the energy and therefore the score.”

Madison McMillan (left) and Mia Farris practice their victory dance.

The Wolves played with precision, something their mentor likes seeing.

“It was another very clean game – really great to be so low-error on the attack when on the road,” Whitmore said.

“(Setter) Katie (Marti) did a great job moving the ball around and kept hitters in strong positions to be smart with the ball.”

The attack started with strong work at the service line, as the Wolves rained down pain on their hosts.

“We went after them serving – all six of our servers registered aces,” Whitmore said. “And when it didn’t result in an ace, they were well-placed, keeping the Blazers offense off-balance.

“Tough to be so efficient on the road and then our defense picked up their big hitter really well, limiting her effectiveness and any chance at an offense.”

 

Tuesday stats:

Taylor Brotemarkle — 2 digs
Teagan Calkins — 1 kill, 3 aces
Mia Farris — 9 kills, 7 digs, 2 aces
Jada Heaton — 1 kill, 1 dig
Issabel Johnson — 1 dig, 1 ace
Katie Marti — 1 kill, 3 digs, 21 assists, 2 aces
Madison McMillan — 1 kill, 7 digs, 1 assist, 3 aces
Grey Peabody — 6 kills, 1 dig, 1 solo block
Lyla Stuurmans — 10 kills, 5 digs, 5 aces

The numbers don’t lie.

Nine matches into the season, the Coupeville High School varsity spikers are filling up the stat sheet.

All nine girls who suit up for the squad have written their names in the record books, with four players currently leading the Wolves in at least one of the main statistical categories.

Junior setter Katie Marti and senior middle blocker Grey Peabody top CHS in two places, while junior outside hitters Madison McMillan and Lyla Stuurmans lead the squad in a single numbers race.

The only Wolves to appear in all six stat categories?

Ready, aim, fire, collect cash.

Coupeville High School spikers each launched 100 serves Friday, as the Wolf volleyball teams held a Serve-A-Thon fundraiser.

Each player collected pledges for how many serves they could spin into the court, and the money will be collected over the next few weeks.

Overall, the Wolves converted on 1235 of 1600 serves, with three different players cracking a 90% success rate.

The top six finishers:

Lyla Stuurmans – 93
Grey Peabody – 91
Madison McMillan – 90
Katie Marti – 87
Jada Heaton – 85
Chloe Marzocca – 85

CHS coach Cory Whitmore uses old-school math skills to total up the serves.
