Coupeville Sports

Clockwise, from lower left, are DeAndre Mitchell, Jessica Bester, Dante Mitchell and Clay Reilly.

Two days, four birthdays, many happy wishes.

Today and tomorrow mark the birth of a huge chunk of Coupeville High School’s athletic future (and present).

Sunday gave us twin basketball wonders Dante and DeAndre Mitchell, as well as Wolf cheerleader Jessica Bester. Monday brings with it the big day of football/basketball/baseball sensation Clay Reilly.

There’s actually another Wolf birthday on Monday, but we’re saving that one for her own article. Tune in Monday to see why.

For now, though, we honor this foursome, who have all made a quick impact in the red and black.

The Mitchell brothers, younger siblings of former Wolf dunk king Anthony Bergeron, were breakout players for the CHS boys’ JV hoops squad last season.

If they follow in the footsteps of Bergeron, who took a huge leap between his first and second seasons at Coupeville, expect the duo to set the nets on fire this year.

Bester joined the Wolf cheer squad as a freshman this year.

The cousin of fellow CHS cheerleader Ciera St Onge, she immediately fit in and shows great promise in the years to come.

Reilly, younger brother of lights-out basketball gunner Amanda Fabrizi, is an athlete for all seasons, and a talented one at that.

Whether flying around the gridiron, the hard-court or the diamond, where he saw varsity playing time last year as a freshman, he brings the same inner drive and flair for the dramatic that marked his sister’s stellar career.

Combined, the four represent the exciting future of Wolf sports.

To all of them, good luck, enjoy your big day, and continue to kick butt and take names.
