More smiles than I've ever seen in one Wolf boys team photo, ever. Nicely played, gentlemen.

They are the hottest team in the land.

After polishing off Concrete Friday, the Coupeville High School boys’ basketball squad has won three straight, is above .500 for the first time in five seasons at 4-3 and sits atop the 1A Olympic League.

As they kept the express rolling, travelin’ camera man John Fisken snapped away and captured the pics above.

Cruise control.

The Coupeville High School JV boys’ basketball squad hit it early Friday night, thrashing visiting Concrete with a hail of three-point bombs launched from somewhere out in the parking lot.

In between the exploding treys, travelin’ camera man John Fisken snapped the pics above.

band

   Not being a band alumni, it took me a moment to get the point of the three guys hoodies. When I did (I’m sure you’ll get it quicker), I nodded and smiled.

It’s all about the fans.

Well, sure, it’s also all about the basketball players (and we’ll have a smorgasbord of CHS boys’ hoops pics Sunday), but, at the moment, the spotlight — and the camera lens — is on the folks in the stands.

And, since a good chunk of them Friday night were super comfortable in front of the camera, all the better for travelin’ photo man John Fisken.

The photos above are courtesy him, the hardest-working Diet Coke fiend in all the land.

Julia Borges

Julia Borges waves goodbye to the 2015 portion of the 2015-2016 school year.

It was their final performance before the winter break, and they slayed it.

Going out on top Friday, the Coupeville High School cheer squad tore up the joint with their halftime show, while still finding time (and vocal energy) to be appropriately loud ‘n proud all night as they cheered on the Wolf boys’ hoops squad to a win over Concrete.

The photos above, courtesy travelin’ photo man John Fisken, capture a bit of the flavor from the Wolves’ halftime show.

Julia

   “Elbows” returns. One-time hoops enforcer/photo queen Julia Myers checks out the new bleachers (and drives my page view count up 276%).

Aunt Judy hangs out with her lil' niece, Lydia, and gets bum-rushed by everyone in the crowd.

Tis the season for heroes to return.

As the holidays hit, former Coupeville High School hoops stars are prone to return to town to see family and check up on the “young punks” who now wear the uniforms they once did.

Travelin’ photo man John Fisken kept one eye cocked at Friday night’s Wolf boys’ hoops games and snagged the photos above to give us a brief visual reminder of the walkin’, talkin’, muggin’ for the camera glory days.
