They’re heading inside, but first, awards for the work outside.

As the Coupeville High School cheer squad transitions from fall to winter sports, the Wolf spirit leaders took a moment Monday to honor their work on the football sideline.

Competition is heating up.

As they move into winter, the Coupeville High School cheerleaders will split time between sideline work and competing at events.

Saturday brought the Wolves to Puyallup, where they earned 2nd place in the “small non-tumbling class” at the Blue Fusion Cheer Competition.

The competitive cheer season runs from November through the state meet the first weekend in February, with weekend practices going since August.

Coupeville’s squad on the blue mats includes Abbigail Bond, Alysia Burdge, Miles Gerber, Jacob Schooley, Isabella Schooley, Makenna Jonker-Chambers, Pamela Morrell, Kassidy Upchurch, Hayley Thomas, Reina Reed, and Avery Williams-Buchanan.

Jayden Cooks rounds out the roster as team manager, with Jennifer Morrell and Tara Crouch working as coaches.

In addition to fine-tuning their competitive routines, the Wolves are also working towards being able to purchase cheer mats.

With a full set of mats, which consists of nine panels, CHS could host showcases and competitions.

Anthony Ford, Crystal Cruz, Sylvia Arnold and the Coupeville Arts and Crafts Association have provided support and financial assistance to the program, and the Wolves are halfway to their goal.

The team plans to reach out to community groups and cheer fans in the near future to see if anyone else is interested in sponsoring the purchase of more mat panels.

If you can’t wait until they do, make first contact with Jennifer Morrell by emailing her at jmorrell@coupeville.k12.wa.us.

“A survey, you say? Color me intrigued.” (Photo by JohnsPhotos.net)

Do you cheer? Tumble? Dance?

Know someone who does?

Or just want to support the development of local talent?

Then take a moment to answer a survey designed to gauge interest in the immediate construction of a local high school level all-star cheer squad, as well as classes focusing on cheer, tumbling, dance, and more.

These classes range from ones for little children to adults, as well as athletes with special needs.

A group of Whidbey Islanders is also seeking experienced athletes looking to coach, volunteers to help with fundraising and advertising, and sponsors.

Donation of physical items such as spaces to train (high ceilings are a bonus) and help for athletes unable to participate because of financial restrictions are high on their list of things to do.

To help the group gauge interest levels, pop over to the form below.

You can also text Tina Provoncha at (360) 672-0058 or email her at tina813marie@gmail.com.

Football, from a different angle.

Coupeville High School senior Sophia Broderick makes her debut here on the blog, with a series of glossy snaps captured at Thursday’s Senior Night game.

A mix of gridiron action, cheer pics, and off-field happenings, they make for an auspicious debut.

“I want to thank my team for always being like a second family to me.

“They have always brightened my day with all their goofy shenanigans and squirrely behavior.”

As she bowed out Thursday, Coupeville High School cheer captain Hayley Thomas spoke for many of her fellow seniors.

Family was a recurring theme as the Wolf 12th graders (and band member Sienna Peabody) were honored for their contributions.

As they put in one more night on the CHS sideline, Coupeville’s seniors marinated in the moment.

“I will forever cherish the time I’ve spent with this beautiful group of people,” Isabella Schooley said.

“And I will never forget the wonderful moments that have made this experience so rewarding.”
