Your donation can help make the wheels on the bus go round and round.

Coupeville High School cheerleaders are holding car washes the next two Saturdays, with proceeds going to fund a bus to carry them to away games.

Give them a pat on the back.

The Washington Interscholastic Activities Association and the U.S. Army are teaming up to recognize and reward outstanding coaches in the state.

The honors are tied to National Coaches Day, which is Oct. 6.

Both head coaches and assistant coaches are eligible, and the first step is for the public to nominate these men and women.

Nominations are accepted through Sept. 30.

Coaches honored should possess some of these core values:

Loyalty
Duty
Respect
Selfless Service
Honor
Integrity
Personal Courage

Sometimes you need your wallet, sometimes you don’t.

As a new school athletic year gets underway, here’s a reminder of how admissions work for Coupeville games.

Admission is charged for all high school football, basketball, and volleyball contests.

Regular-season high school tennis, baseball, softball, soccer, track, and cross country events are free, though playoff games usually charge a fee.

All middle school games are free.

 

Regular season ticket prices:

$6 — Adults & MS/HS students without ASB Card Sticker (signifies they PAID for an ASB)
$4 — Visiting students with ASB Card
$4 — 62+ senior citizens
$4 — K-5 students

It’s really real.

The appearance of team photos is a major sign high school sports are fully back in action.

No games for you.

Tuesday is the first day of classes for Coupeville High School students, and home games for Wolf girls soccer, volleyball, and boys soccer were on the schedule.

That shifted Monday, as Auburn Adventist Academy cancelled its planned trip to Whidbey Island.

The news pushes back season-openers for volleyball and girls soccer to Thursday, Sept. 8.

The Wolf spikers host Friday Harbor, while the booters go island-hopping to face the same school.

Of the three CHS teams affected by Tuesday’s cancellations, the one which has the longest gap in its schedule is boys soccer.

That squad is now set to open its season Sept. 13 on the road at Mount Vernon Christian.

No reason was given publicly for the Auburn Adventist cancellations, and it remains unclear if the non-conference bouts will be made up.

“I may or may not reschedule depending on our schedule availability,” said Coupeville Athletic Director Willie Smith.
