It’s their time to shine

First, they walked on by. Then they drove on by.

A day before graduation, Coupeville High School’s Class of 2022 participated in an assortment of time-honored traditions.

The Wolves, sporting their robes, strolled down to the elementary school, passing through the hallways where many of them got their start.

Then they hit the road for a car parade, before heading off to breakfast.

Along the way photo whiz kid John Fisken snapped the pics you see above and below.

A little rain can’t stop true Washingtonians.

Putting a final stamp on their days at Coupeville High School, Wolf seniors braved the approach of yet another burst of liquid sunshine to camp out overnight at their soon to be alma mater.

True to their school, to the end.

It started dry… (Kristi Stevens photo)

Tennis court or ice rink, Wolf duo dazzles

Their talent has no limits.

Coupeville High School students Vivian Farris and Hayley Fiedler have proven to be masters of multiple sports over the years, from volleyball to cheer to tennis — where they form a dangerous duo for the Wolves — and far beyond.

And now you can add ice skating to their resumes.

Looking for something to do during the pandemic shutdown, Farris heard the siren call of the rink.

Then the wait began.

“This was really a Covid dream for Vivian when she couldn’t do anything else, she wanted to ice skate,” said mom Susan. “And, of course, all the rinks were closed.

“We persisted until they opened.”

Vivian celebrates after her first competition.

Not wanting to go alone, Vivian invited Hayley to come along on her new adventure, and the duo began taking weekly lessons in early 2021.

That involves a two-and-a-half-hour roundtrip to Bellingham, but it’s been worth it.

“They both really love it,” said Susan Farris.

The duo are fast learners, and have participated in performances at Halloween, Christmas, and in the spring with the Bellingham Figure Skating Club.

Recently, Hayley and Vivian took to the stage for Ice Fest, a competition put on by a skating club out of Seattle.

After skating duets together, the Wolf supernovas now have their eyes set on passing skating tests and qualifying to perform solos.

New town, new challenges for Wolf ace

Coupeville’s loss is Nashville’s gain.

Three-sport star Mikey Robinett, one of the most promising young Wolf athletes, won’t be wearing a CHS uniform next school year.

Instead, he and his family will be in Tennessee after a family move in the next couple of weeks takes them to Music City.

Robinett, who just wrapped his sophomore year at CHS, plays football, basketball, and track and field.

On the gridiron he had a sizable impact on both sides of the ball.

While playing defense, Robinett delivered thunderous cracks, while on offense he showed great promise as a runner.

Basketball, where a large senior class is departing, is the one sport where he’s been a JV player.

Robinett crashed the boards with intensity last season and looked to be in the mix for making the jump to the top team.

The Wolf super sophomore earned his first trip to the track and field state championships this spring, where he was an alternate for the 4 x 100 relay squad.

During the season Robinett also competed in the 200, 3200, discus, and long jump.

He’s not the only active Wolf athlete in his family either, as younger brother Dylan is a cross country, basketball, and track athlete who just wrapped his 7th grade year.
