Coupeville High School’s yearbook staff has been firing on all cylinders this year, with basketball the latest sport to bring out the click-happy paparazzi.

The pics above and below come to us courtesy yearbook teacher Jackie Saia and CHS students Chloe Marzocca and Andrew Williams and capture all four Wolf hoops teams in action.

The fab five is filling up the bucket.

So far, 37 different Coupeville High School basketball players have scored this season, with four boys and one girl averaging double-digits.

Junior gunner Logan Downes leads the way, having topped 20 points in each of four games.

At 23.5 a night, he’s joined by fellow varsity vets Alex Murdy (13.8), Alita Blouin (13.0), and Nick Guay (10.8), as well as JV ace Chase Anderson (10.0).

The week ahead gives that five-pack, and their teammates, plenty of chances to ring up some more points.

Wolf varsity teams face Crescent, Sedro-Woolley, and Forks in a four-day span between Wednesday and Saturday, with the JV playing against the second and third of those foes.

Shoot your shot.

Coupeville High School basketball teams are staging a holiday toy drive next week, with a bit of competition added.

Both the Wolf girls and boys will have their own box in the entrance to the CHS gym, and the results will be tallied Friday, Dec. 16 to see which program brought in the most gifts.

All donations of new, unopened toys will be given to the Help House.

Coupeville’s gym complex will be busy next week, with games held on three days.

Monday, the middle school boys host Sultan, while Wednesday features a high school doubleheader against Crescent, as well as the middle school finale against South Whidbey.

During the varsity-only showdown with Crescent, fans are encouraged to wear their best/ugliest holiday sweater or outfit, or dress as their favorite holiday character.

The week’s home games wrap Thursday, with the high school boys hosting Sedro-Woolley.
