All in the family.
There are five different sets of siblings playing basketball at Coupeville High School this season – four brother combos and one sister duo.
There’s a wide range of ages involved, as well, with every class (and then some) represented.
Break down the family affair and we find two seniors, four juniors, two sophomores, one freshman, and even one 8th grader.
With the Wolves moving to the 2B classification, CHS can use middle school students to shore up high school programs struggling with low numbers, such as boys soccer or girls basketball.
So, to the great joy of mom Katie Wells, that has meant daughters Savina (8th grader) and Izzy (11th grader) get two seasons together, and not one as originally expected.
Graduation will break up two of the five sets, with Sage Downes and TJ Rickner set to move on after this season.
But for now, there’s a whole lot of family connections at play in the Wolf hoops programs.
