The season is done, but photos continue to show up.

Various paparazzi covered the games played by the co-ed Coupeville High School soccer squads, and their cameras continue to spit out digital images long after the final shot on goal was registered.

The pics above and below come to us courtesy John Fisken.

You can help Chayse chase his pitch dream.

Coupeville Middle School 8th grader Chayse Van Velkinburgh has been picking up plenty of overseas soccer experience in the past couple of years, and he has an opportunity for much more.

The fleet-footed booter’s family has launched a GoFundMe to allow his supporters to help him raise the money necessary for a three-month full-time residency at the prestigious Madrid Euro Soccer Academy in Spain.

Cost is $13,300 and the fundraiser is 9% fulfilled in a little under 24 hours.

The field was drenched, but the cameras stayed dry.

Or dry enough to keep on clickin’, as John Fisken wandered off to La Conner Friday to capture the Coupeville High School co-ed soccer squad in action.

The calendar flips to November, and things get serious.

A new month brings with it the full crush of postseason action, with just a smidge of regular season play left to finish.

While Coupeville High School soccer saw its season end Saturday, with the Wolves barely missing out on a playoff berth, all of the other fall sports squads are still alive.

Cross country sends 11 runners to Pasco for the state meet, which goes down this coming Saturday, Nov. 9.

Meanwhile, Wolf football has a half-game tiebreaker with Friday Harbor — set for a neutral field in La Conner — going down Monday.

Win, and Coupeville is league champ and hosts a team from District 4, likely on Saturday, with a ticket to state at stake.

Meanwhile, the most successful Wolf program, volleyball, holds Senior Night Monday, with a non-conference match against Sultan.

After that comes the Bi-District tourney, with Coupeville as the #1 seed from District 1.

The Wolves play at home Thursday, then at La Conner Saturday, with two state tourney tickets up for grabs among six schools.

As we head into what is likely to be a wild week, a look at where things sit, win/loss style, through Nov. 3:
