One final honor for the diamond dog.
Coupeville High School senior Peyton Caveness was tabbed to play in an All-State baseball feeder game, joining an exclusive list of Wolves to receive the call over the years.
His last swings in the spotlight came in Anacortes Thursday.
Caveness opened the game at first base for a couple of innings, then moved behind the plate to catch the rest of the way.
At the plate, the Wolf standout was part of an offense which carved up rival pitching in a 15-1 win.
The Coupeville slugger collected two hits and a walk.
The all-star game capped a stellar four-year run of high school baseball for Caveness.
He was a First-Team All-Conference pick by Northwest 2B/1B League coaches as a senior, pacing the Wolves in most offensive categories.
Coupeville’s primary catcher, Caveness also saw time on the mound as a pitcher and helped anchor the infield when needed.

The numbers are frozen in time now.
With the season finished, we’re taking a final look at stats for the Coupeville High School varsity baseball squad.
Overall, the Wolves went 11-9, claimed a co-league title, won a bi-district crown, and advanced to state for the second straight year under coach Steve Hilborn.
Some players got on the field late due to injuries, while others moved away mid-season, but if you made your mark at some point, you’re on the list.
And this list was compiled by CHS coaches and stored on GameChanger.
So, if you have a disagreement with any numbers, talk to them.
I’m just the messenger here – provided I typed everything in correctly…

They got some respect from league coaches.
After using a second-half surge to rally to tie for the league crown, the Coupeville High School baseball squad went on to win the district tourney and earn a trip to the state playoffs for a second-straight season.
Now, five of those Wolves have been tabbed to the All-League team by Northwest 2B/1B League diamond skippers.
Seniors Peyton Caveness and Seth Woollet landed on the First Team along with junior Landon Roberts, while sophomore Chase Anderson and senior Cole White were tabbed as Second Team picks.
Caveness anchored the Wolves as their catcher, while Woollet became the team’s pitching ace as the season unfolded.
Roberts was a jack of all trades, pitching while also playing first base and in the outfield, with White playing shortstop.
Anderson missed more than half the season with an injury but tore things up as a designated hitter and second baseman after getting back on the field.
Mount Vernon Christian senior infielder Joel Votipka was tagged as league MVP, with Eli Sanders of Orcas Island and Jeremiah LeSourd of La Conner sharing Coach of the Year honors.
La Conner took home the Best Sportsmanship award.
