Coupeville Sports

Brittany Black (right) and girlfriend Megan King.

She was, and is, the real deal.

Brittany Black was one of the best basketball players to ever wear the black and red for Coupeville High School, a hustler and a scrapper who could hit a smooth jumper, then knock a girl out of her shoes while fighting for a rebound.

Playing along side sister Lexie Black, the Black ‘n Blue Brigade shredded opponents and helped carry the Wolves to the best extended run of success any sports program at CHS has ever seen.

Then they went to college and survived the frozen tundra of Alaska, a land where your eyelashes could freeze in the time it took to go from your car to the gym.

Today, as she turns 25, Brittany is giving back, working as an assistant coach for the Wolves girls’ hoops squads under the tutelage of David and Amy King. Her experience is invaluable, her ability to still get on the court and school the next generation uncanny.

She is mentally tough and has come through hard times, exiting on the other side a healthy, happy, confident young woman. She is why people are proud to root for the Wolves, now and forever.

Brittany Black is Coupeville, and we are very proud of her.
