The games will return.

Yes, today is the third consecutive day without a Coupeville team playing, as a rain-soaked spring break plays out.

But Friday, weather permitting, brings the return of Wolf softball, and Saturday is slated to see softball, baseball and soccer all take the field.

Until then, a smattering of photos, drawing from all the various spring sports, to remind you of what it looks like when athletes are actually in action.

Their stadium, their day to shine.

The Coupeville High School track and field squad hosted a five-team home meet Wednesday, then tore up the joint, capturing nine wins and 32 PR’s.

The Wolf girls cruised to a team win, piling up 209 points to easily outdistance Klahowya, which tallied 167.

Mount Vernon Christian (99), Port Townsend (78) and Chimacum (39) rounded out the field.

On the boys side, it came down to the slimmest of margins, with MVC nipping Coupeville 169.5-167 to nab the team crown.

Klahowya (155) made it a three-team race, while Port Townsend (77) and Chimacum (34.5) brought up the rear.

The Wolf girls romped to a win in the 4 x 200 relay (Lindsey Roberts, Ashlie Shank, Mallory Kortuem, Maya Toomey-Stout), with Roberts (200), Lauren Bayne (high jump) and Mckenzie Meyer (pole vault) also landing atop the awards stand.

Coupeville’s boys triumphed in the 200 (Jacob Smith), 800 (Danny Conlisk), high jump (Chris Battaglia) and long jump (Jean Lund-Olsen).

Smith and Lund-Olsen teamed up with the Toomey-Stout boys, Cameron and Sean, to race to a victory in the 4 x 100.

Battaglia had himself a huge afternoon, also finishing second in all three throwing events (shot put, discus and javelin).

Coming off its auspicious showing, Coupeville won’t compete again for two weeks.

With spring break on the horizon, the Wolves next meet is Apr. 12, when they travel to Silverdale Stadium for an event hosted by Olympic High School.

While Wednesday’s meet was originally the only home meet listed on the schedule, CHS officials have confirmed they are pulling together a second one.

Friday Harbor and Lopez Island are now set to come to Coupeville Apr. 23 for a three-team meet.

The weather in Coupeville might not have been summer-like Wednesday, but, at the very least, it wasn’t raining.

That made life a bit easier on paparazzi John Fisken as he jumped from event to event, clicking away, as CHS hosted its first home track meet of the season.

A trio will lead them.

As it preps for its first home meet of the season (2:45 PM Wednesday), the Coupeville High School track and field team currently has three athletes vying for the top of the leader-board.

With two meets under their belts, Wolf senior Jacob Smith and juniors Lindsey Roberts and Danny Conlisk have all posted times which place them among the top 10 performances by a 1A athlete this spring.

Smith is a two-timer, currently sitting 3rd in the 200, with a time of 23.27 seconds, and sixth in the 100 at 11.57.

Roberts is sixth in the 100 hurdles (16.17) and Conlisk is 10th in the 400 (53.53).

There are six more regular-season meets after Wednesday’s home bout, where CHS welcomes Chimacum, Port Townsend, Klahowya and Mount Vernon Christian to town.

So, plenty of time for the Wolf trio (and others) to make even more of an impact on the state-wide standings as the season develops.

Smith finished 3rd and 4th at the state meet in the 200 the past two seasons, while Conlisk was 5th in the 400 a year ago.

Roberts claimed 4th in the hurdles in 2016, and made it back to Cheney as a sophomore, but was tripped up (literally) in the finals, finishing out of the medal count in the event.
