They’ll have to wait a bit.

Friday’s road trip to Granite Falls has been bumped by a day for the Coupeville High School football team.

Now the Wolves and Tigers will clash at 4 PM Saturday, and not 7 PM the night before, as originally planned.

The game pits an 0-2 CHS squad against a 2-0 Granite team which has yet to be scored upon.

The Tigers have opened with 47-0 and 42-0 wins over East Jefferson and Sultan, respectively.

Coupeville fell 25-7 on the road at Annie Wright to open the season, then were nipped 30-19 by Cascade (Leavenworth) in last Friday’s home opener.

The finale is coming 24 hours earlier than expected.

Coupeville High School is moving its Senior Night for volleyball from Tuesday, Nov. 5 to Monday, Nov. 4.

The move was made to accommodate Sultan’s potential playoff schedule and ensure the Turks wouldn’t have to pull out of the trip to Cow Town.

“If we kept it on the 5th, there was a potential they were going to have to cancel, and with it being Senior Night, we needed to find a “for sure” night,” said CHS Athletic Director Brad Sherman.

JV is set for 5:00 PM, varsity for 6:30, with festivities before the second match.

Coupeville’s varsity, which is a program-best 11-0 heading into a trip Saturday to Neah Bay, features a team heavy in seniors.

Trick or treat, smell my feet, give me something good to … tackle.

The regular season football finale, which will see Coupeville High School travel to Friday Harbor, has been bumped up a day.

Originally set for Friday, Nov. 1, it will now go down on Halloween — Thursday, Oct. 31.

Kickoff is still slated for 6:30 PM.

The move is being made to accommodate the possibility the two teams will need to play a tiebreaker to decide which Northwest 2B/1B League school advances to face a team from District 4 for a berth in the state tourney.

Coupeville won the first of two meetings with Friday Harbor this past Friday, squishing the Wolverines 18-5 on Whidbey.

Win the regular season finale, and CHS is the league champ and earns the playoff slot outright.

If Friday Harbor should rebound and earn a split, however, then it would force that tiebreaker.

Between now and Halloween, Coupeville, which sits at 4-1 overall, has non-conference games left to play against South Whidbey, Adna, and Winlock the next three Fridays.

The first and third of those are at home.

Saturday’s alright for football.

Thanks to a couple of recent schedule shuffles, the Coupeville High School gridiron squad will play its next three games on the weekend, and not under Friday Night Lights.

This week’s road trip to Klahowya was already bumped a day by busing issues, from Friday the 13th to Saturday the 14th.

Now, the week #3 game, a home tilt with Granite Falls, has slid back a day as well, moving from Sept. 20 to 21. Kickoff will still be at 7:00 PM.

The change is due to a shortage of refs.

Wolf fans can catch a doubleheader that Saturday, as the CHS co-ed soccer team hosts Grace Academy at 3:00, before football takes center stage at Mickey Clark Field several hours later.

Week #4, a road trip to Juanita High School to play Cedar Park Christian, is also set for a Saturday (the 28th), before the rest of the schedule reverts back to Friday games.

Maybe.

From Friday Night Lights to Saturday Afternoon We’re Saving on Electricity.

Coupeville High School’s week #2 football game against Klahowya, featuring a road trip to Silverdale, will go down a day later than originally planned.

Bussing issues have bumped the game from Friday the 13th to Saturday the 14th, and the new game time is 1:00 PM.

The non-conference matchup, a reunion between former league rivals, pits a 1-0 Coupeville squad against an 0-1 Klahowya team.

The Wolves demolished Annie Wright 51-6 on opening night, while the Eagles fell 37-6 to North Mason.
