Mila Light and Bella Karr will be winter captains, with Abbigail Bond and Olivia Hall operating as co-captains.

All four were part of the fall CHS spirit team, as well, with Karr sharing captain duties with Jacob Schooley.

“All of high school this team has been a place for me to go to, to feel loved and accepted.”

Abbigail Bond was speaking for herself, but it’s a sentiment shared by the other four seniors on the Coupeville High School cheer squad.

“I love you all so much, and I wouldn’t be here without you,” added Miles Gerber, while Avery Williams-Buchanan offered “I have felt incredibly supported by my whole team, family and friends.”

One team, one dream — a loud ‘n proud squad keeping spirits flying high in Wolf Nation.

They’re ready for their closeups.

As Coupeville High School football preps for a trip to South Whidbey Friday night to play the 16th edition of the Battle for the Bucket, we pause to pay tribute to the Wolf sideline crew.

Jennifer Morrell’s cheer squad is among the most vibrant in the land, through wins and losses.

Which will they get Friday in Langley? Only time will tell.

But, for the moment, fill some of your pre-game time by cheering on the cheerleaders.
