So many portraits, so little time.

Back when fall sports was just kicking off, photo whiz kid John Fisken snapped head shots of almost everyone on a Wolf team.

As the season plays out, I’m sprinkling those portraits on top of stories, but, every once in awhile, it doesn’t hurt to toss out a chunk of them all at once.

By the time we wrap up fall and head inside for basketball, the goal is to have used every one of those shots.

With today’s batch, we’re seven closer.

One family, two superstars!!

Houston, we do not have a problem … cause he’s takin’ it to the house.

The little brother can ball, too.

Coupeville High School junior Dawson Houston has stepped in as the starting QB for the Wolves this season, leading them to a 3-1 record in non-conference play.

But he’s not the only member of his family tearing up the gridiron.

Younger brother Davin, a fourth grader, is making the trek up to Oak Harbor to play youth football, since Cow Town doesn’t offer a program of its own.

While he was making plays for the 89ers Saturday, as they clashed with Stanwood, the paparazzi caught the younger Houston in all his photogenic glory.

Time to tango!!

Wolf volleyball ace Emma Mathusek scopes out the action. 

We’re headed into the heart of league play.

The week ahead offers Coupeville High School fall sports teams plenty of opportunity to make a statement in North Sound Conference action, with eight clashes spread among four teams.

The biggest, by far, is Tuesday’s volleyball showdown between the Wolves and South Whidbey in Langley, pitting the only two undefeated league foes, in any sport, in a head-to-head match-up.

Second-biggest?

Probably Friday’s home football game, when Coupeville opens league play against a more-battered-than-normal version of King’s.

But every game counts, and come Sept. 30, the league standings could look much different than they do on this Sunday.

 

Standings through Sept. 23:

School League Overall
COUPEVILLE 1-0 3-0
King’s 1-0 3-1

Hill busters ‘r us!!

September 23, 2018 by David Svien

Truly one team, one dream.

Competing Saturday at the King’s Roller Coaster Trail Run in Shoreline, the Coupeville Middle School harriers faced a larger-than-normal starting line.

That’s because this time out, both the girls and boys competed together, covering the 1.6-mile course in one teeming mass of humanity.

While it was a bit unusual, the Wolves rose to the occasion.

“There were some nerves but they all powered through,” said CMS coach Elizabeth Bitting. “The course was VERY HILLY and all appreciate the hills around Coupeville for helping them make it up and pass others on the hills.”

The race also gave the young harriers an opportunity to cheer on and hang out with their older compatriots from CHS, who were taking part in the same meet.

“It is a powerful moment when you see two of your middle school runners walk up to a high school runner and congratulate them on a great run,” Bitting said. “Plus cheering on our high school counterparts was so much fun!”

 

Complete results:

 

GIRLS:

Claire Mayne (11th) 12:26
Cristina McGrath (24th) 14:09
Erica McGrath (30th) 14:45
Allison Nastali (31st) 14:45
Sam McMahon (37th) 16:08

 

BOYS:

Hank Milnes (14th) 11:38
Aiden Anderson (28th) 12:32
Hayden Harry (33rd) 12:58
Andrew Williams (38th) 13:23
Alex Clark (53rd) 14:52
