Another season in the books, another batch of scoring stats to add to the history of the program.

The 2021-2022 campaign was the 48th season for Coupeville High School girls basketball, which kickstarted its program in 1974.

During that time there have been 238 Wolves who have rattled the rims for at least a point during a varsity game.

Or so we can say with some certainty.

The truth is that first team in ’74-’75 exists outside of time and space, as the local newspaper didn’t cover its games, and a scorebook has never surfaced during my sleuthing.

So the career scoring chart I have amassed is close to the final word, but definitely not 100% correct. Yet.

With the current season having reached its conclusion, after a three-game playoff run, it’s time to take a look at where everyone stacks up in the all-time shuffle.

Here we go, with the nine active Wolf players who can return next season in bold:

The Tigers were too tough.

Having traveled 241 miles down the highway, the Coupeville High School girls basketball team put up a strong fight Saturday but fell a game short of qualifying for the state tournament.

Ultimately, the Wolves couldn’t stop host Tonasket on its home court, falling 58-24 in what turned out to be the season finale.

Coupeville finishes 9-9 in Megan Smith’s first year as head coach and can return nine of 13 girls who scored in a varsity game this season.

With the win Tonasket gets to 16-7 and advances to the 16-team 2B state championships.

The Tigers, who emerged from a tough district, are a talented, battle-hardened team, and they came out strongly in front of their largely-maskless home fans.

Coupeville trailed 11-0 before it finally got the ball to stop popping out of the basket, and the Wolves had trouble breaking through Tonasket’s stingy defense in the first half.

Wolf senior Izzy Wells finally got her team on the board at the 4:15 mark of the first quarter, snatching a rebound and slapping the ball back home.

But down 20-2 at the first break, Coupeville needed an offensive surge and couldn’t find one, failing to put together back-to-back buckets at any point in the first 16 minutes of play.

Not that the Wolves weren’t in there, scrapping away for every opportunity – because they certainly were.

Lyla Stuurmans, playing on dad Scott’s birthday, banked home a jumper from the top of the key for Coupeville’s best-looking bucket, while Nezi Keiper used and abused the defense down low for a score in the paint.

Lyla Stuurmans is one of four Wolf freshmen to see varsity action this year.

The problem was Tonasket responded almost immediately to each Wolf score, and often with a three-ball.

The Tigers rained down eight treys on the afternoon, with five different players netting at least one shot from distance.

Down 41-10 entering the second half, Coupeville dug deep, playing its hosts virtually even across the game’s final 16 minutes.

The Wolves finally got back-to-back buckets in the third quarter — with Carolyn Lhamon and Izzy Wells teaming up to make the net jump — then closed the game on an 8-3 mini-tear.

That run, which had four different CHS players knock down shots, also featured a tooth-rattling block on defense from a rampaging Ja’Kenya Hoskins.

It was the final high school hoops contest for Hoskins, Abby Mulholland, Izzy Wells, and Audrianna Shaw, plus manager Mckenna Somes, as the five-pack all graduate with the Class of ’22.

Audrianna Shaw clamps down on defense.

While her team won’t get a chance to head to state like the Coupeville boys, Megan Smith came away from her first campaign as Wolf head coach pleased with a lot of what she saw.

“It was a heck of a season and I’m super proud of how far these girls came this year,” she said. “Lots of ups and downs and all around. They battled through it all.

“It was a great group of kids to have for my first season of many as a head coach,” Smith added. “I couldn’t be more thankful to be a part of this program.

“We have a bright future ahead of us!”

Izzy Wells made her swan song a memorable one, pacing the Wolves with eight points, which allows her to crack the 200-point club for her career.

Lhamon dropped in four in support, with Stuurmans, Maddie Georges, Savina Wells, Shaw, Mulholland, and Keiper each adding a bucket to the cause.

Hoskins and Gwen Gustafson also saw floor time, with youngsters Katie Marti and Mia Farris and injured junior gunner Alita Blouin rounding out the 2021-2022 squad.

 

Final season scoring stats:

Maddie Georges – 129
Audrianna Shaw – 119
Izzy Wells – 91
Savina Wells – 74
Carolyn Lhamon – 65
Gwen Gustafson – 38
Lyla Stuurmans – 36
Abby Mulholland – 32
Ja’Kenya Hoskins – 27
Nezi Keiper – 27
Alita Blouin – 11
Katie Marti – 9
Mia Farris – 4

Izzy Wells finishes her CHS varsity hoops career with 204 points.

The final score was foul, but the photos were fair.

While the Coupeville High School girls basketball team couldn’t quite hang with a powerhouse La Conner crew Thursday, the Wolves did win the snapshot war.

The pics above and below come to us from wanderin’ photographer John Fisken.

Gwen Gustafson has places to be, and baskets to score.

Lyla Stuurmans has the perfect angle.

They said box-out, and Carolyn Lhamon 100% understood the assignment.

Audrianna Shaw can taste the defense’s fear.

Jackie Saia, Queen of the photo game, waits for the action to get cracklin’.

Izzy Wells is en pointe. Yes, a ballet reference. I’m classy like that … sometimes.

Avoid the traffic and watch from home.

If you don’t want to make the 241-mile trip from Coupeville to Tonasket, you can view Saturday’s girls high school basketball playoff game from the comfort of your recliner.

The game, which pits the 9-8 Wolves against a 15-7 Tigers team, is a loser-out, winner-to-state affair.

Tip-off is 1 PM.

The wheels on the bus go round and round, all the way to Tonasket.

After absorbing a 70-19 loss to La Conner Thursday in the title game of the District 1/2 tourney, the Coupeville High School girls basketball team gets a second chance at punching its ticket to state.

That game goes down Saturday at 1 PM and will pit the Wolves, now 9-8 on the season, against the Tonasket Tigers (15-7).

But first Coupeville has to travel 241 miles to Okanogan County, where it’s a crisp 29 degrees as I write this.

Saturday’s game is a loser-out, winner-to-state affair.

With Friday set as a travel day, Coupeville won’t have to pop off a bus and immediately open fire, instead getting a chance to camp out in the finest hotel the school system is willing to fund.

When the Wolves do hit the floor Saturday, goal #1 will be to get off to a quicker start than they did against La Conner.

The Braves, with eyes firmly set on competing for a 2B state title, got to 20-1 on the season by throwing down an avalanche of points.

The first 31 of the game to be exact, as La Conner busted out to a 28-0 advantage after one quarter, then nailed a three-ball to open the second frame.

That was the fifth of 10 treys the Braves hit on the evening, as they stung Coupeville inside, outside, and every which way.

The Wolves finally got on the board thirty seconds into the second quarter, thanks to a runner off the fingertips of Maddie Georges.

That sparked Coupeville’s one sustained run, as Ja’Kenya Hoskins banked in a shot from the paint, followed by freshman Savina Wells drilling the bottom out of the net on a long jumper from the side.

But a 6-0 mini-run, while nice, wasn’t going to be enough to catch La Conner, which stretched its lead to 42-8 at the half and 64-14 heading into the final frame.

Coupeville’s best play probably came on a defensive stand, with Georges scrambling back to continue her streak of drawing offensive charges from out-of-control rival ballhandlers.

Sliding into a narrow gap, the Wolf point guard planted herself and accepted the collision without budging a muscle, earning a hearty round of congratulations from her teammates as they hauled her back up off the floor.

Audrianna Shaw, who paced Coupeville with five points, made off with a couple of steals late in the game which she turned into breakaway buckets, while Georges chipped in with four points.

Savina Wells, Hoskins, Abby Mulholland, Lyla Stuurmans, and Izzy Wells added a basket apiece, with Carolyn Lhamon, Nezi Keiper, and Gwen Gustafson also seeing floor time for the Wolves.

“It’s how many miles to Tonasket???”
