Spurred on by the first hat trick in Coupeville girls' soccer history, the Wolves won 5-1 at Concrete Saturday.

Senior Catlin Phillips drilled three scores to help Coupeville even its season record at 2-2.

Phillips first two goals started the scoring, then freshman Emily Burchfield scored to give the Wolves a 3-0 halftime lead.

Senior Courtney Boyd buried a penalty kick in the second half, followed by Phillips' third goal at the 72 minute mark.

Coach Mike Thornton said, "The girls played like a team and the communication was much improved."

Thornton added that Amanda d'Almeida, Casey Andrews, and Brittany Johnson stood out on defense.

Coupeville travels to Sultan Thursday and Lakewood Saturday.
