Want to break into the coaching biz?

There’s no better time than now, especially if you have some volleyball knowledge.

With the start of school less than a month away, Coupeville Middle School is hot to trot to add a coach to the program, and time is of the essence.

The first day of practice for CMS sports is Sept. 6, also the first day of school.

The job would be ideal for someone seeking their first coaching job, though no one’s going to turn you away if you, say, won a handful of NCAA and Olympics titles and are now looking for a quiet retirement gig.

Hey, could happen.

If interested, contact CHS/CMS Athletic Director Willie Smith at wsmith@coupeville.k12.wa.us.

Wolves score for teammate!!

Bennett Boyles

They burned for Bennett.

Playing under scorching skies in Enumclaw, eight Coupeville Middle School boys’ basketball players poured in buckets in support of a missing teammate this weekend.

Playing at an outdoor three-on-three tourney, the Wolves raised $402 as a fundraiser for Bennett Boyles.

The CMS hoops player is battling an inoperable brain tumor and has been sidelined at a hospital in Seattle for weeks.

While he wasn’t able to travel with his teammates, he was very much in their thoughts, with each basket scored by the Wolves raising money for Boyles.

Coupeville players got fans to pledge a certain amount per basket scored in the tourney and the Wolves combined to pour in 46 buckets.

Seven of the eight CMS players on hand for the tourney scored, while nearly all of them came home with sunburns.

The Wolves were hurt a bit by a thin bench, as local teams shared players among teams.

Still, win or lose, the tourney was more about helping their missing teammate and less about worrying over the score.

So, in the end, it was a rousing success.

“Very proud of the boys,” said Coupeville coach Pat Kelley. “Go Bennett!”

Donations to help Boyles and his family (his mom Lucienne Rivera, a CHS grad, had to quit her job to be with her son) can be dropped off at Ebey Academy (140 SE Terry Road) in Coupeville.

Yep, they’re still going to Forks.

Keeping the longest drive of the season alive, schedules for Coupeville Middle School will pit the Wolves against five other schools this fall.

It’s a hodgepodge of mostly other Olympic League schools, with match-ups against two schools that feed other 1A schools (Port Townsend, Chimacum), two that feed 2A schools (Sequim, Stevens) and one far-flung non-league rival.

First day of practice is Tuesday, Sept. 6, coinciding with the first day of school.

As you fire up the laminating machine to preserve this schedule, be aware, things can always change at the last moment.
