If you’re going to learn, you should learn from the best.

So, it’s perfect that former Coupeville hoops star Caleb Meyer will be back in town in mid-July, helping lead a basketball day camp at CHS.

The event, run by NBC Camps, goes down July 16-18, with each day running from 9:00 AM-3:00 PM.

It’s open to boys and girls between the ages of 8-12 and you can find out more info by looking at the pic below.

Meyer came of age chasing gumballs across the carpet at Videoville when I worked there for his grandparents.

After a stellar run as a middle school athlete in Coupeville, he attended Jackson High School for three years, then returned to Cow Town as a senior.

Meyer played a major role for a Wolf basketball squad which went 16-0, won a bi-district title and advanced to the state tourney.

He capped his final year of high school by blazing through track and field season, including bringing home a 2nd place state medal in the 4 x 100 relay.

After graduation from CHS, Meyer has spent the past two years attending Skagit Valley College, where he was a member of the men’s basketball program.

This summer, he’s bouncing across the USA with NBC Camps, in his third year of coaching with them.

Meyer is at Whitworth College right now, and will trek to Alaska later, but McKenzie’s big “lil’ bro” has his return to Central Whidbey circled on his calendar.

“It’s such an honor to be able to help lead the Coupeville camp this year,” he said.

It’s about basketball, but it’s about more.

Coupeville High School hoops stars are off to summer roundball camp this week, with the road trip giving the Wolves a prime chance to bond as a team.

Some paint, some sand, a few hamburgers, and possibly even a car that got stuck on the beach.

Plus, a ton of hardwood games.

You win some, you lose some, you use the “off season” to build a tighter, stronger pack of players.

Road trip!

Not one, but two members of a Coupeville clan are off to Iowa in July for a prestigious spiker tournament.

Days after big sis Lyla Stuurmans earned a slot on the U19 team, incoming Wolf freshman Tenley Stuurmans was picked for the U15 Puget Sound Region All-Star volleyball squad.

As one of 12 players on their respective teams, the sisters are off to Des Moines July 16-22 for the USA Volleyball All-Star tournament, where they will clash with rivals from other regions.

While Tenley is still young, she’s already making a huge impact on the Coupeville sports scene.

As an 8th grader, she played for both high school and middle school teams.

She started the year pounding spikes for CMS volleyball, then got two seasons on the hardwood during the winter.

Tenley and her fellow 8th graders played on the high school JV basketball team, before suiting up for middle school hoops.

Finally, in the spring, Lyla’s precocious sister picked up a racket and made it all the way to the state tournament in her debut as a high school varsity tennis player.

The world is yours.

With one school year officially ending Monday, eyes already turn to the next one.

At least for sports bloggers in need of things to write about during the summer months.

While the 2024-2025 school year doesn’t start until September 3 in Coupeville, now is a perfect time for incoming freshmen to introduce themselves to Wolf fans.

Whether you’ve already made a mark as a high school athlete while still in 8th grade, or you’re undecided about if you want to pursue any athletic endeavors during your CHS days, this is open to any incoming 9th grader.

Have a parent contact me, either on Facebook or at davidsvien@hotmail.com, and I’ll send them some questions you can answer at your leisure.

No pressure, no one standing there, notebook in hand, as you contemplate the questions.

This is your time to have the spotlight on you. Embrace it.

Coupeville baseball stars (l to r) Landon Roberts, Camden Glover, and Chase Anderson are suiting up for Oak Harbor this summer.

Somewhere, at this exact moment, a Coupeville kid is busy on a diamond.

Likely.

With the end of school fast approaching, and the weather at least slightly better, baseball and softball games continue to play out across various ball fields.

The pics above and below were poached from Wolf Moms Sherry Bonacci (baseball) and Mandi Black (softball).

They capture a mix of games near and far, with the older guys in Pasco and the younger girls at home on the prairie.
