Battle on the mat

There’s no wrasslin’ in Coupeville, so we have to wander off to other towns if we want to see grapplers at work.

Photographer John Fisken was in Oak Harbor Wednesday, and the photos above and below capture the Wildcats facing off with Island rival South Whidbey.

I won’t pretend to know who a single one of these wrestlers is, but I’m happy to pass on the pics in exchange for page hits.

To see everything Fisken shot, and possibly purchase some presents for the in-laws, pop over to:

Snow hope for hoops

Mother Nature is undefeated.

While a new round of snow didn’t batter Coupeville too badly, it left a lot more of the white stuff on the ground in Friday Harbor.

Faced with digging their way out, the Wolverines postponed their trip to Whidbey Island Thursday, erasing basketball games against Coupeville High School’s boys teams.

The girls games were already postponed after a recent positive Covid test in the CHS program.

The plan (for now) is to play all of the games Wednesday, Jan. 19 in Coupeville.

They’re getting back into the groove.

After the long holiday layoff, the Coupeville High School girls basketball teams and wanderin’ photographer John Fisken returned to the gym Tuesday night.

That produced the pics you see above and below.

Back in action, making the cameras click.

The Coupeville High School boys basketball teams swept two games from visiting La Conner Tuesday, with wanderin’ paparazzi John Fisken working the sidelines.

Covid postpones CHS girls basketball games

Two down, two play on.

At least that’s the plan at the moment.

A new positive Covid test inside the program will sideline the Coupeville High School girls basketball teams Thursday, with their home games against Friday Harbor moved to Jan. 17.

The Wolf boys are still scheduled to play, however, and the change means its JV team will get to play in the high school gym, instead of on the middle school court.

Game times Thursday are 4:00 PM for JV, and 5:30 for varsity.
