Caleb Meyer, undefeated once more

Second-best win streak of his hoops career.

Coupeville High School grad Caleb Meyer, who played a huge role in the Wolves hardwood squad ripping off 16 straight victories during his senior season, is back at it.

McKenzie’s “lil” bro, currently a sophomore at Skagit Valley College, is now part of a Cardinals crew which heads into the new year boasting a 14-0 mark.

SVC got there by shredding Wenatchee Valley College 103-67 Saturday afternoon, and now is off until Jan. 5 when it travels to play Columbia Bible College in Abbotsford, British Columbia.

The Cardinals have 15 games remaining on their regular season schedule, then hopefully a long playoff run.

Meyer has played in 12 games this season, racking up nine points, four rebounds, four assists, four steals, and 10 tooth-rattling fouls.

During his time in Coupeville, he helped lead Wolf boys’ basketball to its best season in three decades-plus during the 2021-2022 campaign.

CHS, a 2B school, went undefeated during the regular season, stunned 3A Oak Harbor to rule Whidbey, captured league and district crowns, then pushed state powers Kalama and Lake Roosevelt to the final moments at the big dance.

The last heir to Videoville also earned a 2nd place medal at the state track championships for his work on the 4 x 100 relay squad.

Babies, basketballs, and binkies.

All can be found at your local high school gym this winter, with the latter probably being for the former.

Though if sucking on a pacifier keeps a hoops coach from getting a technical while dealing with blind refs, toddlers everywhere may need to keep an eye on their accessories.

Share and share alike.

While we ponder that, a photographic look at various Coupeville fans, coaches, and players to fill the hole in your life left by the holidays keeping hardwood games off the calendar.

The battle for Santa’s approval is an intense one.

Steve and Shannon Hilborn won’t look this toasty once baseball returns to the frigid, windswept prairie.

“Don’t speak of fake Whidbey “spring!!” Just tell me we’re getting a dome!!”
