They see us.
The preseason props continue to roll in for Coupeville High School football, which is coming off its first league crown and trip to state since 1990.
First, the Wolves landed at #10 among 2B schools in early rankings from Recruit Radar, and now SB Live is picking CHS to defend its Northwest 2B/1B League title.
The website has spent the past week revealing how it thinks every league in Washington state, in each classification, will play out.
When it comes to the NWL, SB Live has Coupeville holding off Friday Harbor and La Conner in the three-team race.
The article, written by Todd Milles, offers this rationale:
Reigning champions posted first winning league record since 2005, and although they graduated a ton of skill-position production from last season, they still have skilled QB Logan Downes running the show.

As he prepares to chase records during his senior campaign, Angie and Ralph’s youngest also nabbed some personal preseason accolades this week.
Logan Downes, who aims to unseat big bro Hunter atop the school’s career passing touchdown chart, was tabbed by Recruit Radar gridiron guru Tyson McCallum as one to watch.
Coupeville begins practice next Wednesday, Aug. 16, with the season opener set for Friday, Sept. 1.
The Wolves welcome non-conference foe Klahowya, a 1A squad, to Cow Town that night, with a 6:00 PM kickoff.
