No more flipping the nets until the new year.

With the varsity boys winning a two-day, four-team holiday tournament in Leavenworth, Coupeville High School’s basketball programs go back into deep freeze for a bit.

The second holiday break features no hoops contests between Dec. 29 and Jan. 3, with the Wolf girls returning to action Jan. 4 with home games against Granite Falls.

The CHS boys get back at it Jan. 6, when Orcas Island arrives on Whidbey for four games in one night.

The race has begun.

Winter weather wiped out nine of 18 games this week, but Northwest 2B/1B League schools did manage to start conference play.

With no contests scheduled for Friday or Saturday — and Coupeville had a completely open calendar planned even before the white stuff hit the ground — we’re jumping slightly ahead to publish this latest update.

Once everyone gets through Christmas, the Wolves travel to Eastern Washington next week, with both the boys and girls set to play games Tuesday and Wednesday at holiday tournaments.

The start of the new year really gets league play rolling, but until then, a look at where NWL teams sit as of Dec. 23:

 

Northwest League boys basketball:

School League Overall
MV Christian 1-0 6-3
Orcas Island 1-0 6-2
Coupeville 0-0 3-4
Darrington 0-0 2-4
Friday Harbor 0-0 0-4
La Conner 0-0 3-5
Concrete 0-2 0-8

 

Northwest League girls basketball:

The time off didn’t dull her game.

Playing for the first time in 17 days, Coupeville grad Makana Stone threw down a double-double Tuesday, lifting her Norwegian pro basketball team to a resounding win.

Baerum went up early on Ullern, then never let its foes back in the game, romping to a 60-47 victory.

With the victory, Stone and Co. get to 8-2 on the season, and sit solidly in second place in the seven-team Kvinneligaen.

Baerum jumped out to a 20-10 lead at the end of the first quarter Tuesday, before stretching the lead to 32-20 by halftime.

Ullern staged its one semi-comeback in the third frame, using a 16-12 run to cut the margin back to single digits, but Stone and associates closed the game with a 16-11 surge in the fourth quarter.

The former Coupeville standout filled up the stat sheet, banking in 20 points, snatching 10 rebounds, doling out four assists, pilfering seven steals, and recording two blocked shots.

Along the way, Stone rippled the nets for a trio of three-balls, her season-best performance from behind the arc.

Baerum teammate Abbey Hoff provided able support, knocking down six treys of her own en route to a game-high 24 points.

Stone, who is in her second season of pro ball after playing in England as a rookie, has rung up 189 points, 114 rebounds, 18 assists, 29 steals, and six blocks through her first 10 games in Norway.

Fresh off the win, Baerum will go right back into another winter break, not playing again until Jan. 4, when it squares off with Asker.

Can’t play the games without fans.

Well, you can, but then the gym gets so quiet all you can hear is the sound of shoes squeaking on hardwood.

Better to put bodies in seats, unleash some cheering, then let the paparazzi click away, as seen in the pics above and below.
