Airborne and elastic, CHS goalie Connor McCormick covers the entire net.

Hungry for another big hit, Mikayla Elfrank carries a big bat and knows how to use it.

Tamika Nastali is aiming for the fence. Yep, the one way out there in center field. (Fisken photos)

Doubles ace Payton Aparicio reaches to the heavens as she unleashes a serve.

Uriel Liquidano (3) keeps his foe as far away as possible.

Currently sitting as the fastest 4 x 200 girls relay team in 1A, it’s (l to r) Sylvia Hurlburt, Makana Stone, Lindsey Roberts and Lauren Grove.

Friday was lovely.

Sunny, no rain, maybe just a ripple or two of breeze across the prairie.

So, of course, there was absolutely, positively no spring sports games scheduled for today.

As opposed to Wednesday, when Coupeville High School softball waged war while being lashed by gale force winds for three hours.

Such is life for athletes playing outside on a rock in the water in March.

Since we didn’t have any live action to report on, here are a collection of photos showcasing all five CHS sports teams, just to remind you what they look like when in action.

Why? Why not.

Relay teams scorch the oval!!

Lindsey Roberts (left) and Makana Stone are half of the fastest 4 x 200 girls relay team in 1A.

The relay teams were on fire.

Competing against three 2A schools Thursday at North Kitsap, the Coupeville High School girls 4 x 200 relay unit put together the fastest time run this season by a 1A school.

Lauren Grove, Sylvia Hurlburt, Lindsey Roberts and Makana Stone toasted their big school foes, zipping across the finish line in 1:48.40 for the Wolves lone win on the day.

The same foursome also finished second in the 4 x 100, trailing just Olympic.

Coupeville’s time of 52.17 is the second-fastest by a 1A school this season (trailing just Lynden Christian), while Olympic’s winning time of 51.75 is second-fastest in 2A.

The relay rumblings capped a day in which 20 Wolves combined to set 30 PRs.

Senior thrower Dominic Dausey set career bests in shot put, discus and javelin to lead the way, while eight other CHS athletes achieved a pair of PRs.

While Coupeville got strong individual efforts, it didn’t have the depth to upend North Kitsap, Sequim or Olympic in team scoring battles.

CMS track stars face new hurdles!!

On to the next season.

With Coupeville Middle School girls’ basketball having wrapped its season Monday, the countdown begins for spring sports to reach CMS.

That means track season, and the Wolves will be competing against new opponents this year.

Any connection with the Cascade Conference (and traditional rival Langley) is long gone, which means Coupeville, which can’t host a meet on its about-to-be-ripped-up-track, will travel off-Island for all its meets.

The first day of practice is Monday, April 11.

After that, the Wolves have a five-meet schedule:

Wed-Apr. 27 @ Stevens
Wed-May 4 @ Blue Heron (Port Townsend)
Tue-May 10 @ Sequim
Tue-May 17 @ Stevens
Wed-May 25 @ League Meet (Blue Heron MS)

P.S. — That schedule has flipped and flopped so many times in the last couple of weeks, it’s left me dizzy.

Best bet?

Keep popping over to the school’s website (maybe on an hourly basis) to keep track of any more movement:

Birthday buddies: Ryan rocks!!

Posted in Football, Happy birthday, Track, tagged CHS Wolves, football, Happy birthday, Ryan Labrador, Track on March 21, 2016| Leave a Comment »

Ryan Labrador, putting in work on the gridiron. (John Fisken photos)

He holds the line.

And sometimes comes busting through it, with fire in his eyes.

Coupeville High School freshman Ryan Labrador, who celebrates a birthday today, is a rising star in the world of Wolf sports.

As a football lineman, he was rock-solid his first time around, playing both ways and getting some attention from his coaches.

Given a chance to play some extensive varsity time in the season finale against Vashon Island, Labrador erupted for three tackles.

That one-game performance shot him up the CHS charts and landed him in the top 20 for the season, indicating a bright future on the gridiron.

Now, he’s out and about this spring as a member of the Wolf track and field team.

Tossing the shot put and javelin, Labrador is well on his way to follow in the footsteps of accomplished older teammates like Dalton Martin and Grey Rische.

As he moves forward in his CHS sports career, we just want to take a moment to wish him the best. Both on, and off, the athletic stage.

Happy birthday, Ryan!
