The youngest is making her mark.
Former Whidbey Island resident Izzy LeVine, sister of Coupeville Sports Hall o’ Famers Micky and Jae, rules the wrestling mats in Arizona these days.
Now a freshman at Casteel High School in Chandler Heights, the young woman who told me I should write about her and not her sisters back when she was in elementary school, continues to soar.
Her latest achievement?
Winning four of five matches Wednesday to claim 2nd place in the 120-pound division at the Fierce Filly Showdown.
Izzy’s wins all came by pins, and she helped Casteel claim the team title from a field of 14 schools.
Her recent run of excellence comes on the heels of a standout performance at the Jerry Benson Tournament in Buckeye, Arizona earlier in the month.
Casteel topped 30 other teams at that event, with Izzy going 5-1, again claiming all of her wins by pins.
The LeVine family, which is headed up by parents Sean and Joline, lived in Coupeville for 14 years.
Mom and pops both worked for the hospital, dad coached highly successful girls’ soccer squads, and Micky and Jae both earned CHS diplomas.
