Winter cheer is coming.

High School basketball season starts Monday, when Coupeville players hit the floor for their first practices.

While Wolf ballers will just be getting started, their cheer counterparts are already working towards a new season, leaving the gridiron sidelines behind for the warmth of the gym.

First-year CHS coach BreAnna Boon has a 13-woman roster with which to work, with 11 of those Wolves returning from football season.

“We are a small but mighty squad!,” Boon said. “Great things are coming … be prepared to be amazed!”

The CHS winter cheer squad:

Ashleigh Battaglia
Julie Bucio
Kim Castro
Coral Caveness
Emily Fiedler
Kaley Grigsby
Ja’Tarya Hoskins
Lola Jimenez
Jaden Marrs
Marenna Rebischke-Smith
Mica Shipley
Bella Velasco

BreAnna Boon’s first season is in the books.

The Coupeville High School cheer coach capped her first time running things on the Wolf sidelines with a season-ending banquet Tuesday night.

Boon honored seniors Julie Bucio and Moira Reed with four-year awards, while handing out letters to 15 girls who stayed loud ‘n proud while cheering on football this fall.

Now, the coach and her athletes head indoors for the start of basketball season.

 

Letter winners:

Ashleigh Battaglia
Julie Bucio
Kim Castro

Coral Caveness
Emily Fiedler

The final batch.

At the start of the fall sports season, candid camera clicker John Fisken shot portraits of virtually every Coupeville High School athlete.

While a few Wolves were missing on their photo day, he managed to capture a solid 98.6% of those who turned out for soccer, cheer, cross country, tennis, volleyball and football.

And, over the course of the season, I managed to run just about every one of the portraits he sent me.

Today’s group, consisting of four cheerleaders, four spikers and one gridiron warrior, brings my mission to an end.

So with that, it’s on to winter, where, with just basketball, both of our jobs will take a lot less time and effort.

We think…

Loud ‘n proud to the end.

Coupeville High School senior cheerleaders Julie Bucio, Moira Reed and Kaley Grigsby bowed out Thursday, but not before bringing their customary spirit to the proceedings.

The trio were honored before the Wolves clashed with Granite Falls, hailed for making it through their final season and for all they brought to the program.

While they might have been front and center at football games, none of the three could have accomplished what they did without the support of many, something for which they were all thankful.

“This has been an amazing experience and I’m glad I joined my freshman year and stuck with it till my senior year,” Bucio wrote in her farewell message.

“I’ve learned a lot throughout these past years,” she added. “I couldn’t have done it without those people who showed me their ways and certain people who took me under their wing since freshman year and helped me not get lost in high school.”

Grigsby and Reed offered similar sentiments, with the latter capturing what cheer has meant to all of them.

“I never joined the team for the popularity, the uniform or for the title of being a cheerleader,” Reed said. “I joined to have a family away from home.

“To my fellow cheerleaders, keep your head high and your chin up. Thanks for all the memories and making my senior year the best.”

The freshman have arrived. Left to right, it’s Grady Rickner, Caleb Meyer, Hawthorne Wolfe and Kiara Contreras.

With help from two layers of Wolves, Mica Shipley touches the heavens.

“I’m telling you, we can still beat those lil’ punks…”

One team, one dream.

There are many people playing many roles, as each week’s edition of Friday Night Lights unfolds.

You have to have football players of course, but cheerleaders and fans play a huge part in making the festivities truly … festive.

Another key role is played by the paparazzi, who stop by to snap away on their cameras, as John Fisken is inclined to do from time to time.

The pics seen above, which come from Coupeville’s 13-0 win over visiting Vashon Island Friday, are courtesy the mad clicker.
