Coupeville Sports

BayLee Dunsmore is the real star.

She is the true power behind the throne, an indispensable manager who keeps several Coupeville High School athletic teams on course, and seems to do it all quite effortlessly.

Whether it’s football or basketball season, Dunsmore is the go-to person for anything and everything you need, whether as a player, coach or blogger.

Especially as a blogger.

I don’t know how many times she has gone above and beyond her normal duties to track down basketball score-books, snap pics and send them my way when the Wolves are deep on the road.

She is my lifeline, ignoring her own needs to text from buses bouncing through a dark night just so I can have all my info fresh and hot.

Like I said, BayLee is indispensable.

She’s also an extremely bright young woman, an honor roll regular, a hard worker and one of the nicest people you could possible imagine.

While the athletes tend to get a lot of the spotlight, nothing works properly without unsung stars like Dunsmore.

As she celebrates her cake day today, we just want to take a moment to say thank you (for everything you do and for being generally awesome in the first place) and wish BayLee the best of birthdays.

May your special day rock as much as you do, Miss Dunsmore.
