At least two former Wolf basketball stars are taking their game to the college court this winter.
Coupeville High School grads Bessie Walstad and Monica Vidoni are lacing up and running lines, continuing to pursue the hoops dream.
After taking a couple of years off, Walstad, a 2013 CHS grad, has picked the game back up in Oregon, where she attends George Fox University.
She’s playing for the Bruins JV squad, and getting back on the court at the NCAA D-III school has been a thrill.
“It is tons of fun!,” Walstad said.
Vidoni, a 2015 grad, is two games into her first hoops season at Rainy River Community College in Minnesota.
The Voyageurs are 2-0, having beaten Fond du Lac Tribal 71-51 and Hibbing 79-62.
Vidoni’s best game came in the opener, when she scored two points, snagged five rebounds and rejected a shot.
