Coupeville finishes second to 4A school at South Whidbey tournament / Volleyball

Coupeville finished second to 4A Sumner at the South Whidbey Invitational Volleyball Tournament Saturday, Sept. 28.

The Wolves won nine of 12 sets during the tournament, dropping two to Sumner, a 4A school that came into the day with a 5-2 record in regular season matches.

Coupeville coach Cory Whitmore saw the tournament as a means to “tighten up our systems and work on adjustments.”

“I was impressed with the progress we made toward both of these tasks,” he said. “Our results were strong as well…It was a big team effort – you can’t compete at a level like we did and see the results we did without contributions from the entire team.”

The Wolves (1-0, 4-0) jump back into North Sound Conference play when South Whidbey (1-0, 2-2) visits at 7 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 1.
