They’re here, and they’re loud.

Coupeville High School basketball fans, especially the younger ones, are among the most exuberant supporters in the land.

As you can see in the pics above and below.

On to the postseason.

With basketball’s regular season all but ending two days ago, this is our final standings story for the winter.

A look below confirms Mount Vernon Christian pulled off the double-win, claiming league titles in both boys’ and girls’ hardwood action.

But now the slate is wiped clean, except for games Monday between Orcas Island and Friday Harbor which were bumped a few days by winter snowstorms.

Other than that, we’re in full-on playoff mode.

Concrete and Darrington, the two 1B schools in the Northwest 2B/1B League, are already actively involved in their district tourney, while the 2B teams get started this coming Thursday, Feb. 13.

Throw the ball skyward and see where it lands, as everyone chases further hoops glory.

 

Northwest League boys’ basketball:

School League Overall
MV Christian 10-0 13-7
La Conner 8-2 11-9
Coupeville 6-4 7-12
Friday Harbor 3-6 3-14

Every point counts.

And hopefully none get left behind.

As a basketball season unfolds, keeping track of all the scorebooks — some beautifully rendered, others not so much — can be a daunting task.

But the “reward” is seeing a full campaign of hoops laid out in front of you in black and white numbers, forever stamped in history.

Or some such nonsense.

The look you give when you realize your point totals are being controlled by a scorekeeper in another town … and that scorekeeper is questionable at best.

Anyway, as we head into the regular season finales Friday against Friday Harbor, here’s where Coupeville High School players currently sit.

Roy Mattox

The basketball brotherhood is remembering one of its own.

Roy Mattox, who played three seasons of varsity hoops at Coupeville High School, recently passed away at age 81.

Mattox torched the nets for 191 points during his time in a Wolf uniform, while playing alongside CHS hardwood legends such as Mike Criscuola, Utz Conard, and Sandy Roberts.

He remains among the top 150 scorers in the 108-year history of CHS boys’ basketball — currently at 147th — six decades after his playing days.

Mattox scored 34 points as a sophomore during the 1958-1959 season, then followed that up with 74 and 83-point campaigns before graduating in 1961.

 

From the family:

Roy Michael Mattox passed away Jan. 19, 2025, in Carnation.

Mike was born in Queens, New York on Sept. 13, 1943, to Roy Milton and Jean Mattox.

He graduated from Coupeville High School in 1961. He then went to WSU.

He was preceded in death by his brother, Gary Lee Mattox and his sister, Gail Mattox Allen Welches.

He is survived by his wife of 58 years, Joyce, and son, Michael, and daughter, Dawn, and also by cousins, in-laws, and many nieces and nephews.

With a career in life insurance sales, he retired after 25 years with Hartford Life first in Seattle and then in Simsbury, CT.

We are having a celebration of his life on Saturday, February 8, 2025, at 1 PM at Wallin-Stucky Funeral Home in Oak Harbor, WA.
