Tia Wurzrainer, three-sport star and ice cream scooper extraordinaire at Kapaws Iskreme, is your Homecoming Queen.

It all came down to taking a bite of a cupcake.

Each senior was handed a cupcake, with the winners revealed when their sugary treat turned out to be full of sprinkles.

Taking the crowns were Tia Wurzrainer and Gavin Knoblich, who both are three-sport athletes for the Wolves.

Crown fever sweeps Cow Town!!

Coupeville High School went old-school.

Having opted out of holding a class float parade on its still relatively new track oval, school officials didn’t announce all of the Homecoming royalty at an afternoon assembly.

Instead, CHS, while revealing 10 senior court nominees, kept the identity of the 2018 King and Queen confidential until halftime of Friday’s game against Sultan.

It was only then that Sarah Wright and Matt Hilborn were revealed as the successors to last year’s top two, Payton Aparicio and Hunter Smith.

Counting the underclassmen and teachers, whose courts were announced earlier, 18 Wolves were honored.

 

2018 CHS Homecoming royalty:

 

Queen:

Sarah Wright

King:

Matt Hilborn

Senior Prince and Princesses:

Maddy Hilkey
Lindsey Roberts
Ema Smith
Emma Smith
Jakobi Baumann
Jaschon Baumann
Teo Keilwitz
Shane Losey

Junior Court:

Tia Wurzrainer
Ethan Clavette

Sophomore Court:

Anya Burns
Drake Borden

Freshman Court:

Noelle Daigneault
Miles Davidson

Duke and Duchess:

The Wolf seniors rule the gym.

Teo Keilwitz comes flying in hot.

The juniors fear no one.

Emma Smith hides behind a cascade of hair, waiting for the perfect moment to strike.

The sophomores, eternally loud and proud.

Matt Hilborn stalks his targets.

The fan section threatens to get out of control.

Kiara Contreras upholds freshman honor.

You can dodge a ball, but not the cameraman.

Wandering from gym to gym Wednesday night, paparazzi to the stars John Fisken paused to capture a slice of Coupeville’s Homecoming week festivities.

The event was the annual dodgeball tourney, pitting players from all four classes against each other.

After you’re done with the pics above, you can see the rest by popping over to:

And this time, all photos are open and free to download.

Though, if you want an extra-glossy version, you can toss Fisken a few bucks and get a high-quality image.

One court, to rule them all!!

Videoville’s legacy lives on.

My home away from home for 13 years may be no more (psst … not too late for someone to bring it back and start paying me to watch movies again), but its alumni are still making news.

When Coupeville High School announced its 2017 Homecoming royalty Friday, two of the honorees had a connection back to video store life.

Senior princess Mckenzie Meyer is the granddaughter of my former bosses, Frank and Miriam Meyer.

And freshman princess Aria Bowen, though she might have forgotten about it at this point, used to hang out with me behind the video counter as a baby while mom Dea made drinks at Miriam’s Espresso.

The other royalty might not have that Videoville connection, but I guess we can mention their names here as well…

2017 CHS Homecoming royalty:

Queen:

Payton Aparicio

King:

Hunter Smith

Senior Prince and Princesses:

Lauren Bayne
Mckenzie Meyer
William Nelson
Lauren Rose
Cameron Toomey-Stout
Julian Welling

Junior Court:

Madison Krieg
Josh Robinson

Sophomore Court:

Jered Brown
Mica Shipley

Freshman Court:

Aria Bowen
Michael Laska

Duke and Duchess:

Chad Felgar

Is everyone around here hugging or what?

Some have crowns, but all are Coupeville royalty.

   Homecoming King Hunter Smith and Queen Payton Aparicio marinate in the moment.

And then a flex-off broke out.

Harris Sinclair wails away while waiting for the parade to start.

You don’t need to be a wizard to see the whole gang’s here.

Everyone loves a parade, even Mother Nature.

The morning rain evaporated and blue skies dawned Friday afternoon in time for Coupeville High School’s annual Homecoming Parade to go off without a hitch … or 1,001 umbrellas.

Thankful he didn’t need to keep wiping off his lens, wanderin’ photo man John Fisken worked the route, capturing the pics above for us.
