Wolf volleyball/basketball ace Kyla Briscoe, the only fan even remotely warm on this day.
Fighting the wind all the way, CHS first baseman Veronica Crownover stretches out to haul in a throw headed towards Oak Harbor.

If the catcher and ump could open their eyes in the heart of the gale, they’d see Katrina McGranahan crushing the ball.
Wolf mom Jennifer Kellner: “Remember how warm the gym was during basketball season?”
Lauren Rose’s papa: “YES, sweet lord, YES, I do!!!!!!!!!!!”
Adjusting for winds of 200+ MPH (at least…), catcher Sarah Wright takes a chance on throwing the ball back to the pitcher’s circle.
“It’s like freakin’ Acapulco out here!!!!”
It was not pleasant on the prairie Wednesday.
While there was not a drop of rain to be found, the wind roaring down from straightaway center field was even more brutal than normal.
And it never, ever let up as Coupeville and Bellevue Christian played the longest game of the spring.
And yet, very few Wolf faithful departed until the end of a mind-boggling 17-16 come-from-behind, how-did-that-happen CHS win.
To prove it, we have a selection of wind-swept pics from travelin’ photo man John Fisken (who did leave before the final run…) to document the inner steel of Coupeville’s players and fans.
