They got some respect from league coaches.

After using a second-half surge to rally to tie for the league crown, the Coupeville High School baseball squad went on to win the district tourney and earn a trip to the state playoffs for a second-straight season.

Now, five of those Wolves have been tabbed to the All-League team by Northwest 2B/1B League diamond skippers.

Seniors Peyton Caveness and Seth Woollet landed on the First Team along with junior Landon Roberts, while sophomore Chase Anderson and senior Cole White were tabbed as Second Team picks.

Cole White snags a grounder, catching the eye of league coaches.

Caveness anchored the Wolves as their catcher, while Woollet became the team’s pitching ace as the season unfolded.

Roberts was a jack of all trades, pitching while also playing first base and in the outfield, with White playing shortstop.

Anderson missed more than half the season with an injury but tore things up as a designated hitter and second baseman after getting back on the field.

Mount Vernon Christian senior infielder Joel Votipka was tagged as league MVP, with Eli Sanders of Orcas Island and Jeremiah LeSourd of La Conner sharing Coach of the Year honors.

La Conner took home the Best Sportsmanship award.

Chase Anderson can kill you on both sides of the ball.

The Coupeville High School sophomore was hailed by Northwest 2B/1B League football coaches, tabbed as a First-Team All-Conference pick on both offense and defense.

Anderson, who led the Wolves in touchdowns and total points this season, was recognized for his work at wide receiver and defensive back.

Joining him on the First-Team offense were senior quarterback Logan Downes, junior tight end Hunter Bronec and senior linemen Zane Oldenstadt and William Davidson.

Junior receiver Jack Porter and sophomore running back Aiden O’Neill copped Honorable Mention.

MVP in the fall, MVP in the spring.

Coupeville’s Scott Hilborn doesn’t play basketball, but he did pretty well in the other seasons.

Coming off a trip to the state tourney, where he pitched the Wolves to their first win at the big dance since 1987, the CHS senior was tabbed for the Northwest 2B/1B League’s top baseball honor.

Hilborn shared MVP status with Mount Vernon Christian junior Nathan Symmank, just as their teams shared the NWL crown with 13-1 league records.

The duo both bounced around the diamond, playing three positions apiece.

Symmank plays first and third base when he’s not pitching, while Hilborn, who was also the league MVP for football, is a pitcher, catcher, and shortstop.

MVC head man John Burmeister was tabbed as Coach of the Year after leading the Hurricanes to a 2nd place finish at the 1B state tourney, while Darrington received the league sportsmanship award.

In addition to Hilborn, Coupeville, which finished 17-6 after splitting two games at state, had six other players honored by league coaches.

The future is bright for Coupeville High School softball.

Coming off a strong 14-6 season, seven Wolves were tabbed to All-Conference teams by Northwest 2B/1B League coaches.

Better still, four of those seven, including all three players to land First-Team honors, still have two or more seasons left to play.

Sophomores Madison McMillan (SS) and Mia Farris (OF) were joined by freshman catcher Teagan Calkins in receiving top honors.

Four other Wolves — sophomore Taylor Brotemarkle (2B) and seniors Allie Lucero (P/1B), Gwen Gustafson (3B/OF), and Maya Lucero (P/1B) — were named to the Second Team.

Coupeville’s seven All-League players make for a formidable lineup.

Coach of the Year honors went to a former Wolf assistant coach, with Concrete’s Stephanie Henning honored by her fellow diamond gurus for reviving the Lion program.

“She kept her girls playing all season,” said CHS coach Kevin McGranahan. “Something to be said for her and her coaching.”

They earned the respect of rival hoops gurus.

Coming off a strong 14-9 season, two Coupeville High School boys’ basketball players were named to the All-Conference team by Northwest 2B/1B League coaches.

Junior Logan Downes, who averaged 23.2 points a night across 10 league contests, with a high of 40 against Orcas Island, was tabbed as a First-Team pick.

The Wolf gunner scored in double digits in every NWL game this season, tossing in 26+ five times against league foes.

Overall, Downes put together the second-best individual season in the 107-year history of CHS basketball, torching the nets for 554 points on his way to averaging 24.1 a game.

After twice scoring 40 in a game as a junior, he’s #15 on the Wolf boys career scoring chart, having splashed home 778 points.

Downes was joined on the 2022-2023 All-League team by senior Alex Murdy, who was tabbed as a Second-Team pick.

Closing his stellar prep career with a bang, Coupeville’s most aggressive defensive player averaged 10.7 points a night in league play, with a high of 17 against La Conner.

Capable of changing the flow of the game on both ends of the floor, Murdy scored 448 points during his time in a Wolf uniform.

Senior Diego Lago, who led Orcas Island to a 6th place finish at the 1B state tourney, was league MVP, while Vikings head man Ed Lago was named Coach of the Year.

Concrete won the Sportsmanship Award.
