Stat after stat, that’s that.

Coupeville High School coaches and players record them, and I get the page hits for pushing the numbers agenda on the public.

We’re back again, 12 varsity matches into the season, with two more regular-season rumbles left on the schedule before the playoffs begin.

Want to know who has the most kills? Who takes delight in digs?

Look no further.

Well, actually, I mean, keep scrolling down through the rest of the story, of course.

But you know what I mean.

They’ve hit double digits again.

Last season, during a run to a league title and a trip to the state playoffs, 12 Coupeville High School football players scored a touchdown.

This year, with a younger roster, scoring is down, but the Wolves have still found a way to get 10 players into the end zone.

Freshman Davin Houston snagged a touchdown pass from Logan Downes against Friday Harbor to become that 10th player to hit pay dirt.

With six games in the books, Coupeville has tallied 147 points and 22 touchdowns this season, averaging out to a not-bad 24.5 and 3.7 per game.

Admittedly, that is down from last year’s nine-game total of 363 points and 52 scores, but last year was also one of the best in program history.

Jack Porter (grey shirt) has found the end zone twice.

The Wolves have three regular season games left to play, with a non-conference Homecoming rumble against Forks set for this Friday, Oct. 13.

After that comes a road trip to La Conner and a Senior Night rematch with Friday Harbor as CHS pursues a return to state.

As the final games play out, one thing to keep an eye on is the play of quarterback Logan Downes.

The senior gunslinger has 13 touchdown passes this season and 33 for his career.

Logan Downes already owns the CHS single-game record of five scoring heaves and is chasing Joel Walstad (18) and big bro Hunter Downes (35) for the single-season and career marks.

Logan Downes chases history.

The halfway point is coming up fast.

Saturday’s non-conference home rumble with Forks will leave the Coupeville High School varsity volleyball squad with seven matches in the books, and seven to go.

The Wolves are 2-4 heading to the weekend, but that’s deceptive.

Three of those losses came in five-set thrillers and another defeat was against undefeated Neah Bay.

Flip a point here or there and CHS could be sitting at 5-1.

But it is what it is, and the Wolves, fresh off a win over Friday Harbor, are intent on putting together a successful second-half run.

As they prep for Forks, a look at season-to-date numbers for the scrappy spikers:

Is our tally perfect? Probably not.

Pretty close to reality and likely to get me some sweet, sweet page hits? Absolutely.

With Coupeville High School’s varsity volleyball squad hitting the 20% mark, having played three of 15 regular season matches, it’s time for a quick look at stats.

Why?

Because, in the words of Stanley Ipkiss in The Mask … “It’s party time! P-A-R-T-why? Because I gotta!”

Of course, that Jim Carrey classic also gave us “Look at that! It’s exactly three seconds before I honk your nose and pull your underwear over your head.”

Which is awesome sauce, yet doesn’t really fit here…

Anyways, back to the land of spikes and sets.

Our stats come from CHS coaches, but were recorded by players, some of whom are still learning on the job.

So, if not every kill or dig made it into the record book, it is what it is.

Or, in the words of The Mask, “No Milo, not the cheese … The keys!”

What?? Exactly.

A partial list of stories coming to Coupeville Sports in the near future. It changes hourly this time of year.

This is unique.

As far as I can tell, there are no other web sites or blogs in the state of Washington doing what I do here on Coupeville Sports.

No one else has chosen to hyper-focus on one small town and write about everything sports-related in it – high school, middle school, elementary school.

On the fog-enshrouded prairie in the middle of a rock slapped down somewhere out in the middle of the water, you can get your athletic props — whether you’re a professional basketball star cashing checks in a foreign country or a 3rd grader.

And, thanks to my off kilter sleeping habits at times and obsessive need to document every last bit of info I stumble upon, this is all delivered on an almost daily basis.

If you go back and count the days in 2023 where nothing new was published on Coupeville Sports, you’d have several fingers and toes left to use.

Today, midday on May 17, I’m sitting at 69 stories this month — slightly more than four a day, every day — with 375 for the year and 10,145 since the blog debuted Aug. 15, 2012.

Unlike other publications which work at a much-slower pace, be they local or international, I have been free to read since day one, and will be free to read until we reach the end of wherever this road takes us.

And it is a journey we are taking together.

I may be smacking my fingers on the keyboard at 2 AM, but Coupeville Sports wouldn’t make it without the photographs, news tips, or (occasional) elbows to the ribs from you, the readers.

If it’s happening in Coupeville, or at least has some vague connection to Cow Town, and I haven’t written about it yet, it’s probably not personal.

Email me at davidsvien@hotmail.com and let me know what’s crackin’.

Last, but certainly not least, an enduring thank you to everyone who has ever donated to the cause, your support keeping me one step ahead of a return to the dish pits.

Years of abuse from working on farms, in restaurants, or moving large rocks from one side of a field to the other have resulted in a cranky back and assorted aches and pains.

But the mysterious back and body medicine sold at the $1.25 store helps, and I still have the use of my fingers — most mornings — so the blog churns on.

Want to read for free? So be it.
