Weather bumps title showdowns

The battle for league supremacy has been bumped by a day.

Tuesday’s scheduled matchups between Coupeville and Friday Harbor on the softball and baseball diamonds have been moved to Wednesday because of forecasted rain.

Both games are scheduled to have 4 PM starts in Coupeville.

The baseball match-up pits Friday Harbor, which is 8-0 in Northwest 2B/1B League play against a Wolves squad which sits at 8-1.

The Wolverines, who are the defending league champs, won the first meeting of the season 3-2 on Friday Harbor.

A win is crucial, as only one of three 2B schools from the NWL advances to the postseason, and La Conner is already eliminated.

On the softball side of things, Coupeville (5-0 in league) can clinch back-to-back league titles with a win over Friday Harbor (5-1).

While their league records look fairly similar, it’s deceptive, as the Wolf sluggers won 30-0 (not a misprint) the first time the teams played this season.

While this spring has featured more than its fair share of rain, wind, and typically chilly prairie temps, there have been a few sunrays in between.

When he’s not snapping pics of in-game action, photo whiz kid John Fisken has also turned his cameras to the side to document Coupeville fans.

Wolf frosh rules dog show world

She’s a two-timer.

Coupeville High School freshman Gabriella Gebhard has earned a return visit to the American Kennel Club national championship event after a strong showing in Tacoma this weekend.

The AKC big dance goes down at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando December 17-18.

Gebhard, who is currently ranked third in the nation among English Setter junior dog handlers, won Reserve Best Junior at the Tacoma Dome.

She was showing “Set’r Ridge’s Eternal Faith.”

Last December Gebhard took “Set’r Ridge’s Legend in the Making” to Orlando, where the duo narrowly missed the second cut while competing with 141 juniors at the AKC National Championships presented by Royal Canin.

The trip to Tacoma was a busy one for the CHS scholar/athlete, who also claimed Best In Breed with a different dog, “Set’r Ridge’s Climbing to the Top.”

Showing three dogs, Gebhard claimed multiple prizes as she continues her pursuit of fulfilling a dream by earning a trip to her sport’s showcase — the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show.

Step up for Sarah Leavell

Sarah and Joshua Leavell

A Wolf Mom is in need.

Sarah Leavell, whose daughters Anya and Kaitlyn are scholar/athletes at Coupeville High School, has been diagnosed with breast cancer at age 38 and faces an uphill battle.

While the cancer was detected early, she may require multiple rounds of chemotherapy, as well as surgery.

Along with always being in the stands for her daughter’s games, Sarah has worked for a decade at The Seaside Spa & Salon.

Her boss, Aaron Wiley, has launched a GoFundMe to allow the community to reach out and help the Leavell family, which also includes husband Joshua (and his truly remarkable beard).

“While Sarah’s team of doctors are optimistic, there is no doubt that she is facing the fight of her life,” Wiley said.

“Now, if you know Sarah, you know she has a quiet strength and determination that does not quit until the job is done.

“She lives her life like that and will be treating this cancer journey the same way. She’s not going to quit.”

The GoFundMe will help cover medical bills, gas to get back and forth to doctor appointments, and Sarah’s loss of income.

“Please help lift her spirits,” Wiley said. “Relieve some of the stress, so she can focus on what she needs to … beating cancer!”
