The Schaffeld sisters will shine elsewhere.
A family move will subtract two of Coupeville’s best young athletes, with Olivia and Amaya Schaffeld set to suit up in a new town this fall.
Olivia, who will be a junior, was a key player for a CHS varsity volleyball team which went 11-6 last season.
She earned Honorable Mention status when Northwest 2B/1B League coaches selected All-Conference teams, one of four Wolves honored.
Olivia racked up 69 kills, 37 digs, nine block assists, and 26 service aces during her first varsity season, finishing in a tie with Jill Prince for most block assists by a Wolf.
The elder Schaffeld was #4 on the team in kills and aces.
Her younger sister also earned a varsity letter, even before reaching high school.
Amaya was the lone 8th grader on the CHS varsity soccer squad, playing forward for the Wolf booters.
Lil’ sis wrapped things up this spring by competing in track and field, back at the middle school level.
During the season, Amaya ran the 100, did the high jump, and was part of a 4 x 100 relay team.
The Schaffeld sisters’ departure continues a recent trend of family moves trimming Coupeville rosters, with Mikey and Dylan Robinett also leaving town.
I am their auntie, and could not be more proud of these exceptional young ladies!
