The Wolves play for two things Friday night.
On the court, the Coupeville High School basketball teams will clash with visiting Darrington in key Northwest 2B/1B League contests.
But the Wolves will also be leading the way to honor those fighting cancer, while raising funds for the WhidbeyHealth Foundation.
The annual “Coupeville vs. Cancer” night features girls varsity and boys JV hoops games at 5:15 PM, followed by boys’ varsity at 7:00.
Players will wear custom “Coupeville vs. Cancer” warmups, and a giant sign will be posted on a wall in the hallway leading to the CHS gym where people will be encouraged to write the names of loved ones who have fought or are fighting cancer.
Shirt and bracelets will be available for sale, and donations can be made at the game or online.
All funds raised will directly support cancer care at WhidbeyHealth, helping “ensure that patients can receive compassionate, high-quality care close to home.
“Your generosity strengthens our community and makes a lasting impact,” said CHS coaches in a statement.
“Please know that your courage is an inspiration, and we are proud to stand as a community and recognize your strength, and resilience.”
