The sound of squeaking shoes on gym floors is almost upon us.

The first day of practice for Coupeville High School basketball teams is next Monday, Nov. 17, with the first Wolf games set for Dec. 2.

CHS varsity head coaches Megan Richter and Brad Sherman, and their assistants will guide their squads through seasons which run through possibly March.

Currently the Wolf boys have 19 games on the schedule, with their female counterparts down for 18, with the boys (two tilts) and girls (three rumbles) both set to play in a holiday tournament.

Included in that are 10 games against Coupeville’s fellow Northwest 2B/1B League rivals, as the Wolves play 2B foes La Conner, Mount Vernon Christian, Orcas Island, and Friday Harbor twice, while squaring off with 1B schools Darrington and Concrete once.

Write everything down in pencil, as the Wolf girls are expected to add at least one more game, and winter weather can always play havoc with everything.

But here at least is a tease of what could be:

It’s their time to shine.

With high school sports underway in Coupeville, the older Wolves will soon be joined by their middle school compatriots, who kick off fall sports action starting this weekend.

CMS features cross country and volleyball, with students in grades 6-8 eligible to participate.

The middle school football program was shut down several years back, but 8th graders can play up with the high school soccer teams, and a fair amount of booters have accepted the challenge this fall.

The schedules for CMS fall teams:

 

Cross Country:

Sat-Sept. 20 — @ Carl Westling Invitational (South Whidbey)
Sat-Sept. 27 — @ Return of the Salmon Invitational (Sultan)
Thur-Oct. 2 — HOME meet (Fort Casey)
Sat-Oct. 4 — @ John Payne Cross Country Invite (University Place)
Sat-Oct. 11 — @ Mountain Loop Invitational (Granite Falls)
Wed-Oct. 22 — Cascade League Meet

 

Volleyball:

Thur-Sept. 25 — South Whidbey — 3:15
Tue-Sept. 30 — @ Lakewood — 3:15
Thur-Oct. 2 — @ Sultan — 3:15
Mon-Oct. 6 — @ King’s — 3:30
Thur-Oct. 9 — Granite Falls — 3:15

It’s the trickiest season of them all.

Spring sports, which began Monday with the first day of practice, take place outdoors, where weather can have an outsize effect on things.

Will the prairie be buffeted by wind and rain? History says yes.

Will games be shuffled, often at the last second? History says yes.

Will we still write the schedules in ink, then regret that decision later? History says, were you not listening??

It’s a foolhardy plan we follow, but it’s too late to change now.

So, here are the Coupeville High School spring sports schedules, as of March 4, with a * indicating a league game.

Will everything still be in place by March 5? Best of luck on that.

Will it be sunny and mid-60’s or cloudy, rainy, (extremely) windy, and low-40’s?

If you have to ask, you’ve never experienced spring sports on Whidbey Island…

While I ponder who I can sweet-talk into buying Coupeville Sports one of those plastic viewing bubbles, the annual freezing of the nether regions approaches.

And no, it wouldn’t help if I wore pants and not shorts.

I’ve tried that before, and, other than slightly blocking gusts of wind shooting up the backside of my legs, there isn’t much difference.

It will be dastardly … I mean, delightful out there on the prairie.

“Ladies, ladies, I am but a toasty lil’ tot. Let’s just stay here and never, ever speak of venturing out onto the frozen tundra of the prairie.” (Photo by JohnsPhotos.net)

As I look in the mirror and try to psych myself up to stare down Mother Nature at her orneriest, here’s a look at Coupeville High School varsity schedules for “spring” sports.

If there’s a ** next to a game, it indicates a Northwest 2B/1B League contest.

And no, you’re not reading things wrong.

Wolf tennis will NOT be playing at home this season, instead hitting the road for all 10 matches as they wait for new courts over by the CHS gym to be finished.

It’s the road life for the netters, with ferries and buses taking them to other areas where maybe the wind doesn’t howl quite so much.

But don’t hold your breath.

If you listen carefully, you can already hear the squeak of shoes on hardwood.

The first day of practice for Coupeville High School basketball arrives Monday, Nov. 13, with games beginning about two weeks after that.

Today, as an appetizer, we have schedules for both the Wolf girls and boys programs.

With the caveat that schedules, for any sport, should always be written in pencil, and not pen — even if you plan on laminating them.

So onward, steadfast in the belief that winter weather or other assorted ills will not alter what CHS Athletic Director Willie Smith has put down on paper.

PS — ** means it’s a Northwest 2B/1B League clash.

PPS — If the opponent is a NWL rival, but there’s no **, the game is considered a non-league affair.
