How much do you want it?

If you want to walk the walk, and not just talk the talk, now is the time to put in work.

With school ending Thursday, the chance to put in off-season workouts will be very available for CHS/CMS students.

The school’s weight room will be open every Monday-Thursday from June 13 (that’s this coming Monday) to July 28, with one exception — the 4th of July.

“That would be anti-American,” said Coupeville Athletic Director Willie Smith with a chuckle.

Hours of use are 8-9:30 AM and 5-6:30 PM and athletes will be able to make use of the school’s SST (Speed Strength Training) program.

You know athletes at King’s and ATM will be in the weight room.

Are you, the future of Wolf Nation, ready to put in the same level of commitment and work?

Yes, yes you are.

Being a local track and field fan is about to get so much easier.

With Coupeville High School ripping up its outdated oval and laying down a fresh new eight-lane marvel this summer, the Wolves will once again host home meets for the first time in forever.

But, with no home meets, and only one appearance in a meet even on Whidbey this past season, that meant fans had to hit the open road, a lot, once again.

If you didn’t make it to every meet (I went to one, in Bremerton), you can catch up, thanks to Dawnelle Conlisk and the video below.

The mom of freshman phenom Danny, who went to state in two events as a whiz kid, she put together an eight-minute tribute to the Wolves and their season, using action and behind the scenes photos from a wide variety of folks.

Plus a little Journey.

Cause every good montage needs a little Journey.

So hit the road, while never leaving your couch, and experience Wolf track ’16.

Who speaks for the Wolf? (Robyn Myers photo)

Who speaks for the Wolf? (Robyn Myers photo)

Found: one wolf. Wanted: one owner.

The Coupeville High School Booster Club is trying to track down info on the giant painting/drawing which hangs on the CHS gym wall opposite the team benches.

The wolf head has loomed large over Wolf volleyball and basketball games, as well as school assemblies and graduations, at least for a bit, though how long is a good question.

If you know anything about the history of the art work, or its creator(s), contact Booster Club head honcho Robyn Myers at rawynn91@yahoo.com.

One last chance to shine.

Stepping into the spotlight for the final time as high school baseball players Monday, Cole Payne and CJ Smith carried away their fair share of awards.

With CHS coach Marc Aparicio bringing his first season at the helm of the Wolves to a close, he tabbed Payne as the team MVP, while Smith walked away with Most Valuable Pitcher and team captain.

The senior duo were joined by sophomore Hunter Smith and freshman Matt Hilborn in receiving official notice of their status as First-Team All-League picks, as well.

Junior first-baseman Kory Score was a runner-up for All-League.

The group, who led the Wolf baseball program to its first league title since 1991, were chosen by a vote of 1A Olympic League coaches.

Payne was the league MVP, while CHS coaches (Aparicio, Mike Etzell, Chris Smith and Josh Welshans) were honored as the league’s best coaching staff.

In other team awards, Payne took home Highest Batting Average and a 4-Year Award, while junior Gabe Wynn won Highest OBP and the Wear It Award for being the Wolf who was hit the most by opposing pitchers.

Other winners included Aiden Crimmins (best overall team support), Nick Etzell (best off the bench support), Joey Lippo (best utility batter/player), Jake Pease (Wolf Pride), Jacob Zettle (Most Improved), Cameron “Rodeo” Dahl (Best Nickname) and Scott Losey (best support parent).
