Taylor Ebersole is three wins away from being a state champion.
The one-time Coupeville High School hoops player transferred to La Conner for his sophomore season, while his father, David Ebersole, continues to work as the principal at Coupeville Elementary.
Despite seeing very little playing time, the younger Ebersole is a member of a 22-1 Braves team that will play in the 2B state quarterfinals this week.
La Conner, which beat the Wolves in a non-conference game early in the season, will play Colfax at the Spokane Arena Thursday. Win that one and they advance to the semifinals to play the winner of Wahkiakum and Winlock Friday.
Ebersole has scored seven points this season (15th best out of 16 players to see varsity playing time), averaging 1.4 points per game coming off the bench. He started for Coupeville as a freshman.
Older sister Hayley (Ebersole) Errichiello, a standout hoops star, played her entire career in the red and black for Coupeville.
La Conner is one of six schools still alive for a state title who played either the Wolf boys’ or girls’ squads this season.
King’s and Lynden Christian are in both the 1A boys’ and girls’ quarterfinals, while Cedarcrest is in the 2A tourney.
