Your leading scorers in 2014-2015, juniors Makana Stone and Wiley Hesselgrave.

2,087 points.

Take the 23 players to score in a varsity game for Coupeville High School this season, and that’s what you get. Assuming my points totals are sorta, kinda correct (which is always debatable).

Leading the way, by a large margin, was junior Makana Stone, who accounted for 17.6% of all points scored by herself.

Tossing in 367 over 22 games, she averaged 16.7 a game, figures topped by only two girls — Brianne King and Zenovia Barron — in a CHS uniform in the last 25 years.

The points were the sixth-most in a season during that time (King holds the high-water mark with 446 in 24 games in 2000-2001) and the scoring average was the third-best (King at 18.6 in the same season is tops).

My best guess for season-ending point scoring totals:

GIRLS:

Makana Stone — 367
Julia Myers — 148
Kacie Kiel — 116
Madeline Strasburg — 96
Hailey Hammer — 95
Monica Vidoni — 69
Wynter Thorne — 58
Mia Littlejohn — 52
McKenzie Bailey — 17
Kailey Kellner — 12

BOYS:

Wiley Hesselgrave — 273
Aaron Trumbull — 148
Aaron Curtin — 134
Joel Walstad — 133
Ryan Griggs — 97
Risen Johnson — 87
CJ Smith — 54
Matt Shank — 53
Dalton Martin — 47
Gabe Wynn — 24
Hunter Smith — 3
Jared Helmstadter — 2
DeAndre Mitchell — 2

The greatest scorer in CHS girls' basketball history, Brianne King.

Makana Stone is gunnin’ for the legends.

As the Coupeville High School girls’ basketball squad prepares for the district playoffs, the Wolf junior is enjoying one of the best scoring seasons in recent memory.

But, since CHS is notoriously spotty in keeping track of its sports history — outside of the snazzy wall of track records — one wonders where she stands.

While anything before the 1990’s resides in a giant black hole at this point, we were able, with the help of former Wolf coaches Willie Smith and Greg Oldham, to track down most of the “golden era” (late ’90s to mid-2000’s) of Coupeville girls’ basketball.

And, what that shows is Stone (with 331 points in 20 games) has currently put together the 7th best scoring mark in the last two decades.

With her average sitting at 16.6 a game — third-best by a Wolf player in that time period — she could make a serious run up the chart if Coupeville stays alive in the playoffs for any duration.

The Wolves (15-5) are guaranteed two games at districts, and could pick up a third.

Win two and they advance to regionals with the dream of being the first CHS hoops squad to return to state since 2005-2006.

The honor roll of Wolf scorers as we know it (and, as soon as this hits print, maybe we’ll hear from someone who has score-books from the glory days of Marlene Grasser that’ll blow these away):

1) Brianne King (2000-2001) 446 points/24 games/18.6 avg

2) King (2002-2003) 442/28/15.8

3) King (2001-2002) 386/28/13.8

4) Zenovia Barron (1996-1997) 378/23/16.4

5) Barron (1997-1998) 376/22/17.1

6) Ann Pettit (1997-1998) 363/25/14.5

7) Makana Stone (2014-2015) 331/20/16.6 avg

Also of note: Lexie Black had 295 in 26 games in 2004-2005.

Plus, King tossed in 275 during her freshman year of 1999-2000, giving her 1,549 points during her splendid career.

We’re 99.2% sure that’s a school record.
