Cheer drew in 51 girls over two seasons, including Robin Cedillo, who would also go on to play softball for the Wolves.

Soccer was the most popular sport at Coupeville High School during the 2013-2014 school year.

At least in terms of how many students played the sport, and, if we don’t consider cheer a sport — which school officials don’t.

If cheer was given a little more respect, the 51 girls who participated over the course of the fall and winter seasons would top the list.

But, since cheer is considered an activity, soccer, with 50 players (30 boys, 20 girls), rules the roost.

The numbers for the eight sports CHS offers:

Soccer (50) — 30 boys, 20 girls
Tennis (45) — 29 boys, 16 girls
Basketball (44) — 21 boys, 23 girls
Track (40) — 22 boys, 18 girls
Football (39)
Volleyball (21)
Baseball (19)
Softball (13)

Coupeville also had one golfer, junior Christine Fields, who finished 5th at the 1A state tourney. CHS doesn’t offer golf, but Fields trains and travels with South Whidbey while competing as a Wolf.

At the middle school level, Coupeville offers four sports, with hoops drawing the most participants.

CMS sports numbers:

Basketball (45) — 23 boys, 22 girls
Track (42) — 24 boys, 18 girls
Volleyball (33)
Football (15) — 14 boys, 1 girl

Among non-sports activities, drama was one of the biggest draws.

CHS:

Cheer (51)
National Honor Society (43) — 18 boys, 25 girls
Drama (38) — 10 boys, 28 girls
Science Olympiad (14) — 11 boys, 3 girls
ASB Executive Board (8) — 3 boys, 5 girls
History Day (4) — 3 boys, 1 girl
Jazz Band (3) — 3 boys

CMS:

Drama (65) — 18 boys, 47 girls
Natural Helpers (33) — 13 boys, 20 girls
History Day (6) — 2 boys, 4 girls
Jazz Band (5) — 4 boys, 1 girl

ATM is 99.2% gone and King’s is nowhere to be seen, so that’s a start.

The schedules for Coupeville High School’s first season in the 1A Olympic League are out, and, despite the fact that there could still be plenty of tweaks before we reach September, they make for interesting reading.

With the exception of one boys’ tennis match with Archbishop Thomas Murphy, the only team the Wolves will face from their former league, the 1A/2A Cascade Conference, is Island rival South Whidbey.

The two Whidbey schools will continue to meet in all four fall sports, keeping the rivalry strong, though the games will now be non-conference affairs.

Still, Wolves gotta eat Falcon meat.

Coupeville will play each of its new league rivals — Chimacum, Port Townsend and Klahowya — home and away, while picking up some old-school rivals again like Concrete and Darrington for non-league games.

Also, the first person to figure out where first-time soccer foe Crosspoint Academy is located gets a gold star.

OK, it’s in Bremerton. Now I know, and knowing is half the battle.

The schedules as they stand on June 18:

VOLLEYBALL:

9-6 @ Oak Harbor Jamboree
9-9 @ South Whidbey
9-11 Friday Harbor
9-18 @ Orcas Island

Know Your Foe: Chimacum’s Kyah McKinlay!!

Chimacum’s Kyah McKinlay

With Coupeville leaving the 1A/2A Cascade Conference and joining Port Townsend, Chimacum and Klahowya in the 1A Olympic League this fall, now is a great time to learn a bit about some of the players who will face off with the Wolves in the future.

Kyah McKinlay is an equal opportunity athlete.

The Chimacum High School junior-to-be plays year round, bouncing from soccer to basketball to track, where she throws the javelin, discus and shot put and her favorite sport changes with the season.

“I don’t have a favorite sport, I love every sport I play,” McKinlay said. “I enjoy how many friends I get to make. Also the memories we make as a team.”

A strong student who enjoys a wide range of classes (“My favorites are biology, history, Spanish, leadership and English”), she’s also involved in her school’s ASB.

On the field or court McKinlay prides herself on being receptive to the advice she receives from her coaches.

“My athletic strengths are being a coachable person,” she said. “I’m willing to work hard.

“I would like to work on my physical strength.”

With the Cowboys going head-to-head with their arch-rivals from Port Townsend, as well as new league mates Coupeville and Klahowya, McKinlay would like to be one of the building blocks in Chimacum becoming an athletic power.

“My goals for next year are to win more games and get more commitment out of my teams,” she said.

McKinlay credits her coaches for helping her develop her skills and for always being there for her, win or loss.

“My family, my basketball coaches, Trevor Huntingford and Mike Dowling, and my track coaches, Tony Haddenham and Josh Chapman, have helped me improve throughout the seasons and helped me keep my head up after tough losses.”

Let’s get it on!

Soccer balls were flying all over the playing fields at Fort Nugent this weekend.

The annual Rock On 3v3 tourney attracted 60 teams and 320 participants, who all competed in a fast-paced game on a small field with no goalies and limited players.

The Coupeville-based squad of Kicks With Dre, headlined by current and former Wolf stars (Zane Bundy, Grayson Knott, Andre Stone, Evan Amulexen-Coleman and Travis Curtin), ran away with the adult division.

Their opponent in the final was almost a veteran squad comprised of local coaches and dads, the OGFC.

That squad (Sean LeVine, Mark Bundy, Kyle Nelson, Ben Leyva and Robert Wood) went unbeaten at 1-0-2, but came up just short of a win in its final match to get to the championship.

Multiple teams boasted talent from the the Whidbey Islanders GU18 select soccer squad, as well.

They’re back.

It was only a short time ago that the Whidbey Islanders GU18 select soccer squad finished off a spectacular late-season run by going undefeated in its final nine games.

Now, the team, which brings together players from Coupeville, Oak Harbor and South Whidbey, is back, with a few additions and a couple of subtractions.

Practice starts in late May and the new-look Islanders will take to the competitive pitch under coaches Sean LeVine and Scott Rosenkranz with a tournament in Tukwila in June.

With a roster dominated this go-round by seniors-to-be, the Islanders will play in three college showcase tourneys.

They’ll also pick up some other tournaments along the way, play in the State Cup and kick off their regular winter season after the high school season plays out in the fall.

The roster:

Alyssa Cross
Gillian Crossley
Hailey Erbe
Jacki Ginnings
Jacalyn Hefflefinger
Micky LeVine
Ayla Muller
Bailee Olson
Becca Pabona
Lydia Peplinski
Kenzie Perry
Erin Rosenkranz
Jenn Spark
Vivien Valles
Kendra Warwick
Paige Waterman
