The gym came alive.

Coupeville Middle School boys’ basketball made its home debut Tuesday and wanderin’ photographer John Fisken was on hand to collect the first images of a new season.

The photos above and below, which are a mixture of action and team pics, are just the tip of the iceberg, however.

To see everything he shot, and possibly purchase some Christmas gifts for the grandparents, pop over to:

Makana magnificent against top team

She’s filling up the stat sheet, day in and day out.

Coupeville grad Makana Stone continued her torrid play Sunday, but even her efforts couldn’t save the day against an overwhelming opponent.

The former Wolf poured in a team-high 18 points, to go with nine rebounds, two assists, three steals, and two blocks, but Baerum fell 72-56 to undefeated Ulriken in a Norwegian professional basketball game.

The win lifts Ulriken to 9-0, while Baerum (4-2) sits in second place in the seven-team Kvinneligaen.

Stone and Co. were playing for the first time in two weeks, but they put up a spirited battle against the league leaders.

Three other Baerum players reached double-digit scoring, with Abbey Hoff (13), Julie McCarthy (12), and Shiba Ahmadi (10) all making the nets sing.

Ulriken was paced by hot-shooting guard Aurora Sorbye, who torched the joint for a game-high 30 points.

Stone’s 18-point performance included a pair of three-balls, as the American assassin hit from inside, outside, and every which way.

Through her first six games in Norway, she has piled up 120 points, 74 rebounds, seven assists, 12 steals, and three blocked shots.

Baerum has back-to-back games up next on its schedule, playing Storm Ungdom (0-7) and Midtbyen (4-3) Nov. 26 and 27, respectively.

This is Stone’s second season of pro hoops, after she played in England last season.

She’s a machine, kicking out double-doubles.

Her skills honed on the rough-and-tumble basketball courts of her Coupeville youth, world traveler Makana Stone continues to wow the masses in Norway.

Her latest accomplishment was a 20-point, 13-rebound performance Saturday, sparking Baerum to a 63-42 win over Midtbyen.

The victory lifts Stone and her pro hoops squad to 4-1 on the season, placing them firmly in second place in the seven-team Kvinneligaen.

Baerum is off until Nov. 20, when it gets a rematch with league leader Ulriken, which sits at 7-0.

Saturday’s matchup with Midtbyen was decided by rebounding, where Stone and crew snatched the glass clean, amassing a 58-30 advantage in corralling caroms.

Fellow American Julie McCarthy knocked down 19 points and grabbed 24 rebounds, while Henriette Hofermann paced Midtbyen with a team-high 11 points.

Stone, now in her second season of professional basketball after playing in England last year, has piled up 102 points, 65 rebounds, five assists, and nine steals while wearing a Baerum uniform.
