There was no better varsity hoops team on Whidbey Island this season.
Led by seniors Amanda Fabrizi and Breeanna Messner, the Coupeville High School girls’ basketball squad won 10 games, including capturing a thrilling 42-41 home playoff victory over Meridian.
The other five varsity squads — Oak Harbor boys (4 wins) and girls (0), South Whidbey boys (6) and girls (3) and Coupeville boys (3) — won a combined 16 games, with four of those squads failing to make the playoffs.
The only one that did, the Falcon boys, beat an 0-22 Nooksack Valley team in the playoffs, but were bounced hard in their other two postseason games.
The Wolf girls came close in both of their playoff losses, falling to Mount Baker and Blaine on the road sandwiched around their season-defining, make-the-student-section-rush-the-floor win.
So, before the euphoria dissipates, let’s throw out some more John Fisken photos for your viewing pleasure.
As you look at them, say it proud, say it loud — best team on the Island, without a doubt.
