Mother Nature is on Coupeville’s side, it appears.

Both Wolf softball and baseball were set to return to action Tuesday with a road trip to the wilds of Darrington, but rain washed that away.

Now, the games have been bumped to Thursday and will go down in Cow Town instead of Logger territory.

It’ll be doubleheader action on both sides of the road for the Wolves, with the start time of both game #1’s set for 3:00 PM.

Game #2 for each is tentatively planned for 5:00 PM.

CHS softball is sitting on top of the Northwest 2B/1B League coming out of spring break, boasting a 2-0 conference record and a 5-1 overall mark.

Meanwhile, a rebuilding Wolf hardball squad is still looking for its first win of the campaign, carrying 0-2 and 0-6 records into Thursday’s twin bill.

Now we have no excuse not to go to the school board meeting.

Crummy weather has washed out Thursday’s scheduled Coupeville High School softball and baseball games, leaving a gap on the schedule.

The rumbles, which were Northwest 2B/1B League contests against Concrete, will likely be made up.

If Mother Nature cooperates as the remaining days in the regular season schedule rapidly run out.

For now, Wolf fans can look ahead to Saturday and the hope Darrington will be able to come to Whidbey for afternoon games and Senior Night festivities.

Mother Nature has the final word.

And that word Tuesday is rain, as loads of liquid sunshine in Darrington is washing away scheduled baseball and softball games with Coupeville.

The contests, which pit Northwest 2B/1B League rivals against each other, will be rescheduled.

For now, everyone back to working on their ark building.

The sun is out in Coupeville, but no tennis balls will fly in Langley Thursday afternoon.

The girls’ tennis rumble between the Wolves and host South Whidbey has been postponed, and CHS Athletic Director Willie Smith will look to reschedule.

Coupeville, which is 1-0 in Northwest 2B/1B League play and 1-1 overall, has two matches scheduled for next week.

The Wolves travel to Granite Falls Monday, Mar. 27, then host Friday Harbor Mar. 31.

The score remains 0-0 Thursday afternoon. Or 1-0, in favor of Mother Nature. (Lucy Tenore photo)

Tradition, upheld.

It’s raining all across Washington state, as it’s prone to doing in March, and the liquid sunshine is already forcing schools to juggle planned spring sports games.

Coupeville High School was set to send its baseball and softball squads to Bellingham Monday to open the season with non-conference games against Meridian.

Instead, the splash-splash of raindrops will keep the wheels on the bus from going round and round.

The schools will look to reschedule at a later date, said Coupeville Athletic Director Willie Smith.

“I’ll think about it,” responded Mother Nature with a slight smirk.

 

UPDATE:

Games rescheduled for Thursday, Mar. 16.
