One Wolf team is flying high, while the other one is trying to keep its season from slipping away.

With wins over Port Townsend and Chimacum last week, the CHS girls sit atop the Olympic League, exactly where they’ve finished the past two seasons.

Now 22-0 all-time since the league was founded in 2014, the Coupeville girls are in control and starting to hit another gear, having won four straight and five of its last six.

The only loss in that span came to non-conference foe Bellevue Christian, currently ranked #4 in the state’s RPI rankings.

The Wolf girls are #13, out of 65 teams in the 1A division.

Things are not clicking quite as well for the CHS boys, who lost a heart-breaker in overtime to Chimacum Friday night.

That knocked them momentarily out of a playoff spot, though they still have plenty of time to reclaim the berth.

While they haven’t been winning, the Wolf boys are scoring in bunches, with two players, Hunter Smith and Gabe Wynn, averaging double figures.

Smith is hitting 14.5 a night, while Wynn is banking home 10.3.

Where things sit through Monday morning:

Olympic League girls basketball:

School League Overall
COUPEVILLE 4-0 8-3
Port Townsend 2-1 5-4
Chimacum 1-3 7-5

Kyla Briscoe

   Defensive dynamo Kyla Briscoe has helped the CHS girls stretch their unbeaten streak in Olympic League play to 20 games.

As we sit a game away from everyone heading out for Christmas break, there are several basketball story-lines developing.

The Wolf girls once again sit atop the 1A Olympic League standings, and, with two wins this year, have stretched their unbeaten run in conference games to 20.

That streak (9-0, 9-0, 2-0 and counting) ties Klahowya girls soccer (6-0, 6-0, 8-0) for the longest run of success by any program in the league’s 2.5 year run.

The other emerging tale is the offensive show being put on by Wolf junior Hunter Smith.

He torched the nets for 25-point performances in both of his last two home games, and currently has a 57-point cushion on anyone else wearing the red and black.

Smith is averaging 16.3 points a night through the first eight games, and, at 130 points, has already tied what he put up during an injury-plagued sophomore campaign.

As you get ready for Tuesday’s tango at Concrete, then a long wait until a trip to Orcas Island Dec. 30 reignites things, here’s the down-low:

Olympic League girls basketball:

School League Overall
COUPEVILLE 2-0 4-3
Port Townsend 2-0 3-2
Chimacum 1-2 4-3
Klahowya 0-3 2-4

Olympic League boys basketball:

Now things get interesting.

The first week of high school basketball was about non-conference games and tournament play (the CHS girls won their second straight Friday Harbor Tip-Off Classic), but things ramp up in week two.

Both Coupeville teams will play three games this coming week, with the first two Wednesday and Friday being 1A Olympic League clashes with Chimacum and Klahowya.

So far, the league’s girls teams have fared better, much better, than the boys, boasting a 6-3 mark in non-conference games against a combined 1-7 for their male counterparts.

Olympic League girls basketball:

School League Overall
COUPEVILLE 0-0 2-1

   Wolf football has tripled its win total from last year, but faces a big hurdle in its season finale.

We’re headed for a split decision.

With only one more league game on the schedule for the four members of the 1A Olympic League, Coupeville will exit the fall with the most conference titles, while Klahowya is very likely to earn the most varsity wins.

The Wolves captured volleyball and boys tennis crowns, while the Eagles ran away with the girls soccer championship.

Football’s title is going to an outsider, as Cascade Christian clinched the title with a 42-0 drubbing of Port Townsend Saturday.

The Olympic League is in the first year of a two-year plan in which it joins with the Nisqually League for gridiron action and one team is crowned the king.

Klahowya edged ahead of Coupeville 21-20 for the most varsity wins this fall, while Port Townsend (7) and Chimacum (5) are far behind.

That lead is likely to stand, barring one final Friday Night Lights miracle.

The Eagles are favored to beat Bellevue Christian in their football finale, while Coupeville is a huge underdog to undefeated and state-ranked Cascade Christian.

Bad weather at the tail end of the season denied the Olympic League’s top two schools chances to pad their win totals.

Coupeville lost out on two boys tennis matches, while Klahowya played one less soccer game than expected.

Since both those squads were undefeated in league play, it’s fair to believe we’d be looking at a 22-22 tie right now if those games had been played.

The standings with one week of regular season football left to play:

Olympic/Nisqually League football:

School League Overall
Cascade Christian 6-0 9-0
Port Townsend 5-1 6-3
Charles Wright 4-2 5-4
Klahowya 4-2 6-3
COUPEVILLE 2-4 3-6
Bellevue Christian 2-4 2-7
Vashon Island 1-5 1-8
Chimacum 0-6 1-8

Olympic League volleyball:

School League Overall
COUPEVILLE 8-1 11-4
Klahowya 6-3 7-7
Chimacum 4-5 7-9
Port Townsend 0-9 2-13

Olympic League girls soccer:

School League Overall
Klahowya 8-0 11-1-2
COUPEVILLE 6-3 8-7-1
Port Townsend 2-7 3-11-1
Chimacum 1-7 2-8-1

Olympic League boys tennis:

School League Overall
COUPEVILLE 4-0 5-8
Klahowya 3-2 4-8
Chimacum 0-5 0-12

Inch by inch, sport by sport, Coupeville is taking the 1A Olympic League away from Klahowya.

When things started in the fall of 2014, the Eagles, who have the largest student body of the four league schools by a fair margin, were dominant.

Klahowya won titles in three of four fall sports (volleyball, boys tennis, girls soccer) in that first go-round, with Port Townsend claiming the football crown.

Jump forward a year and Coupeville, which sits at 227 students to Klahowya’s 445, took away the boys tennis title. The other three fall sports saw repeat winners.

Now skip forward to season #3 and the Wolves have held on to boys tennis and snatched volleyball away from the Eagles.

Klahowya just three-peated in girls soccer, but that’s it for the fall, as the football title is going to come down to next week’s clash between Port Townsend and Cascade Christian.

With the Nisqually and Olympic League joining together for gridiron action this year, there’s a (super) solid shot the pigskin kingpin will hail from the other league.

So, that means in three falls, Klahowya’s titles have gone from three to two to one, while Coupeville has gone from zero to one to two — the small tugboat chugging past the flailing ocean liner.

Overall, the Eagles, who led the title chase 5-2 after the 2014-2015 school year, are now barely hanging on to a 9-8 advantage in league championships won heading into basketball season, where the Wolf girls are two-time defending champs.

Chimacum has four titles (two each in boys basketball and softball) while Port Townsend, the second-largest league school, has just two football crowns and will need a colossal upset to earn #3 this coming Saturday.

With tennis done playing league matches, and the other three sports days away from heading to the postseason, Coupeville and Klahowya are tied with 16 varsity wins across the four fall sports.

Port Townsend has seven and Chimacum four.

Rain cost Coupeville the chance to be sitting alone at the top in the victory race. The final two league tennis matches were cancelled and not rescheduled, as the Wolves (4-0) had already clinched the title.

CHS has six more league games (1 soccer, 2 football, 3 volleyball) left to build their fall win total, while Klahowya has seven (2 soccer, 2 FB, 2 VB).

Standings through Sunday:

Olympic/Nisqually League football:

School League Overall
Cascade Christian 5-0 8-0
Port Townsend 5-0 6-2
Charles Wright 3-2 4-4
Klahowya 3-2 5-3
