jumpsuits

   Teo Keilwitz (center) pops up for a surprise cameo with his jumpsuit-clad fellow students.

In between the action on the basketball court, the real show often happens off to the side.

Fast-clickin’ camera man John Fisken catches it all, and the photos above, a merry mix of Coupeville hoops fans of all ages, is courtesy him.

student section

   The student section gets rowdy (within strict guidelines, so as not to upset the Fun Police too much).

Cory Whitmore

   Whitmore either passes on sage wisdom to Peytin Vondrak, or is about to send her to the snack bar with his order.

Lucy and Maddy

   Lucy Sandahl (left) and Maddy Hilkey enjoy watching their fellow spikers deliver a butt-whuppin’.

The stands were crammed and the action was hopping.

With the Coupeville High School Booster Club passing out all sorts of free doodads, the fans at Thursday night’s volleyball match had plenty of things to shake.

And with the Wolves utterly destroying 2A Port Angeles on the court, they had plenty to scream about.

Capturing both worlds was your friendly neighborhood paparazzi, John Fisken, who delivers unto us the photos seen above.

Danny

   Three Coupeville Sports Hall o’ Famers — (l to r) Amanda Fabrizi, Danny Savalza and Haley Sherman — come back to visit their alma mater.

crowd

“Drive home safely, South Whidbey!!”

It was fandemonium.

Saturday’s home football opener brought out a huge chunk of Coupeville, from current students to alumni, Booster Club bigwigs to the working media.

Wanderin’ paparazzi John Fisken fired off a few hundred photos to capture the off-field scene, which I’ve culled down to a reasonable eight or so for the moment.

Jump in, and come out as happy as the Wolf faithful were after a 41-10 demolishing of Island arch-rival South Whidbey.

Ethan Kedrowski

  Is Ethan Kedrowski getting ready to run a route or trying to scope out what they’re eating on the sideline?

The official Ulrik Wells Fan Club.

   Wolf freshman Ulrik Wells made his high school football debut, and he had a boisterous fan club ready to cheer him on.

No one travels like Wolf fans.

And yes, going all the way out to Camp Casey isn’t exactly the same as trekking to, say, Eastern Washington. I get that.

But there was still a pretty good turnout Friday night for little more than a scrimmage, as Coupeville and visiting Lakeside stretched out their football muscles.

Wanderin’ paparazzi John Fisken was in the area and snapped some pics of the Wolf National faithful to go along with his photos of gridiron warriors.

Robert Nastali

   Robert Nastali tries to decide which daughter is his favorite at the moment. It all hangs on this at-bat.

Ally Roberts

   Wolf volleyball ace Ally Roberts keeps it low-key, so as not to be swarmed by autograph seekers.

Rich Briscoe

   Rich Briscoe debates whether slapping the umpire on the back of the head would help him make better calls.

Sylvia Arnold

   The day was overcast, yet Sylvia Arnold was still shooting off rays of sunshine from every pore. Uncanny.

Sean LeVine

   Sean LeVine — soccer guru, EMT, dad, possible runway model (he’s already got Blue Steel down cold…).

Moments after this picture was taken, the photographer vanished. Coincidence?

Gretchen Smith

   Gretchen Smith basks in the glow of watching granddaughter Sarah Wright, Coupeville’s catcher/cleanup hitter, be super-awesome on the diamond.

Fans, fans as far as the eye (or camera) can see.

Coupeville sports boosters are as dedicated as any you will meet, and jam the stands for almost every Wolf sports event.

Softball is no exception, and, as CHS played Meridian Saturday, wanderin’ photo man John Fisken let his camera slide through the crowds to snap some portraits for us.
