Just the facts.

Just the facts.

Work out and help little kids.

Coupeville High School’s volleyball and football squads are helping to put on a fundraiser Aug. 17 which will raise money to help with the Wolf Buddies program.

That program, restarted by CHS volleyball coach Breanne Smedley last season, teams up elementary school kids with high school athletes, during the school day and at games.

The fundraiser, called WOD With The Wolves, will be hosted by CrossFit in Oak Harbor.

WOD, or Workout of the Day, will be geared towards a “fun, high-energy team format workout that can be scaled to any fitness level.”

“All are welcome!,” Smedley said.

There is no charge to attend, but donations will be accepted at the door on the day of the event or through a PayPal account.

If you are planning to take part in WOD With The Wolves, RSVP to breannesmedley@coupeville.k12.wa.us.

To donate through PayPal, jump over to:

Wednesday evening, the Coupeville High School football team officially moved one month away from the first day of practice (Aug. 19) and marked the occasion by putting on helmets and pads.

The Wolves faced off with La Conner in a 7-on-7 scrimmage at the CHS practice field, and, while score wasn’t kept, we did snag some photos, courtesy Kelly Crownover.

Two months from now, they’ll be getting ready to play games again.

School doesn’t start until Aug. 31, and Coupeville Middle School doesn’t kick off its football and volleyball seasons until late Sept., but it’s never too early to run schedules.

I mean, what else are we going to do with our time here in mid-July?

So, here you go, something to look forward to, then.

And, an interesting side note — any affiliation with the 1A/2A Cascade Conference is truly gone.

Last year, CHS moved into the 1A Olympic League, but CMS continued to play games against schools such as King’s and Langley.

No more, as this year’s schedules are awash in Port Townsend and Chimacum, with Forks, Sequim and a newcomer, Stevens (from Port Angeles) tossed into the mix.

New year, new rivalries.

CMS fall sports schedules, as they sit on July 19:

FOOTBALL:

Wed-Sept. 23 Stevens
Wed-Sept. 30 Port Townsend
Wed-Oct. 7 @ Chimacum
Wed-Oct. 14 Sequim
Wed-Oct. 21 @ Forks
Wed-Oct. 28 @ Port Townsend

VOLLEYBALL:

Mon-Sept. 21 Chimacum
Thur-Sept. 24 @ Stevens
Mon-Sept. 28 Forks
Thur-Oct. 1 Sequim
Mon-Oct. 5 @ Port Townsend
Thur-Oct. 8 @ Chimacum
Mon-Oct. 12 Stevens
Thur-Oct. 15 @ Forks
Mon-Oct. 19 @ Sequim
Thur-Oct. 22 Port Townsend

Learn to love the road.

Looking ahead at fall sports schedules for Coupeville High School (hey, the first day of practice is Aug. 19, just a month away), that’s the theme.

Unless things change (always possible), three of the four Wolf teams (football, volleyball, girls’ soccer) will play more games on the road than at home.

The only team that currently has more home matches than road trips is the CHS boys’ tennis squad, and that’s deceptive, because that’s also the only team that obviously doesn’t have a finished schedule.

Little quirks to look forward to:

Wolf volleyball will be the first team to play in front of fans sitting on the newly-installed bleachers in the CHS gym, when it hosts South Whidbey Sept. 8.

By the time football plays at home, we’ll be firmly into the cold season, as the Wolf gridiron squad plays its first FOUR games away from Coupeville.

Schedules as they stand on July 18 (* = league game, and there is no way the tennis schedule is complete, so there’s that):

Kid’s got moves.

Coupeville High School junior Mitchell Carroll, who celebrates a birthday today, is one of the slickest Wolves on campus.

Whether on the football field or the track oval, the multi-sport threat can turn on the afterburners and leave his foes grasping at air.

On the gridiron, he played both ways as a sophomore.

On a team deep in talent, Carroll finished 8th in total yards and 18th in tackles, and those numbers could take a large spike if he gets more playing time this fall.

During track season, he flexed some muscle (as depicted in the photo montage above) to go with the speed.

Occasionally working as a sprinter and relay runner, Mitchell excelled as a jumper, making his mark in all three events (triple, long and high jump).

Plus, he still found time to be a member of the school’s Homecoming royalty and has been known to grace the Honor Roll.

Not bad, and he’s still got two years to set the school afire.

So, from all of us at Coupeville Sports, happy birthday, Mr. Carroll!

Keep aiming for excellence and none of us will be surprised when you go blazing by, like a bright, shining star.

Cause that’s what you are.
