The first match is in the books.

Coupeville High School grad Chelsea Prescott made her college volleyball debut Friday night, racking up major floor time as Medaille College opened play at the University of Rochester Invitational.

The Mavericks fell in straight sets against the Rochester Institute of Technology, losing 25-16, 25-15, 25-13.

Prescott and Co. get a chance to bounce right back with two matches Saturday in New York as the six-team tourney wraps play.

Medaille is scheduled to face Smith College in the morning, and the tourney hosts in the afternoon.

Prescott, a three-sport star and Athlete of the Year winner during her time at CHS, racked up six kills, six digs, and a block assist in her college debut.

Mica Shipley went to Paradise.

The Coupeville High School grad officially kicked off her second season as an NCAA D-1 cheerleader Thursday, as Eastern Washington University topped host University of Nevada, Las Vegas.

Playing in front of 21,000 fans at the still fairly-new Allegiant Stadium in Paradise, Nevada, the Eagles held off UNLV 35-33 in double overtime, denying a game-tying two-point conversion on the final play.

The game was held in a $1.9 billion arena, known informally as “The Death Star,” which also houses home games for the NFL’s Las Vegas Raiders.

Shipley’s high school cheer coach, BreAnna Boon, was thrilled to see her high-flying star holding down the big-time spotlight, a payoff for all her hard work.

“Mica friggin killed it!,” Boon said. “Her coach said that she had the most infectious spirit on the team.

“I am so proud of her! She’s living proof that you can do anything you set your mind to.

“She has dreamed of being a college cheerleader for so long, so to be able to see her living her dreams out, it’s just completely heart warming!”

Shipley fires up Eastern Washington University supporters.

“Farewell until next time!”

Coupeville High School boys soccer fans will have to wait an additional week to see their team play at home.

After opening on the road against Mount Vernon Christian Sept. 7, the Wolves were slated to have three-straight tilts at Mickey Clark Field.

The first one of those — a Friday night rumble under the lights Sept. 10 — has been cancelled, however, as Cedar Park Christian-Lynnwood has “a shortage of eligible players/number of players.”

Coupeville’s first home game is now the following Friday, Sept. 17, against defending Northwest 2B/1B League champ Orcas Island.

CPC has not cancelled its season, and Coupeville’s second matchup with the private school, set for Oct. 21 in Lynnwood, remains on the schedule for now.

As for that first game, the schools are “looking into the possibility of a re-schedule later in the season,” said CHS Athletic Director Willie Smith.

The free ride is over.

With the pandemic throwing everything asunder last school year, Coupeville High School waived entry fees, allowing fans to view any and all Wolf games for free.

Now, we’re going back to reality.

CHS, like its fellow Northwest 2B/1B League rivals, will once again charge for entry to volleyball, football, and basketball games during the 2021-2022 school year.

Softball, tennis, track and field, soccer, cross country, and baseball remain free.

 

NWL admission prices for 2021-2022:

$6.00 for adults and high school students without ASB cards
$4.00 for visiting students with ASB cards and senior citizens (62+)
$4.00 for grade school (K-5) and younger

Joey Lippo is the master of more than one kind of stick.

Fresh off a summer baseball season in a wood bat league, the Coupeville High School grad has returned to the University of Maine at Presque Isle.

Only this time he’s hitting campus as a two-sport athlete, and not just a diamond dandy.

Lippo, who will be a sophomore on the Owl baseball squad next spring, will also rep UMPI, an NCAA D-III school, in golf.

He can play both since the links season runs in the fall.

“I decided to add golf to my resume in college because I’ve always loved playing golf with my dad and grandpa,” Lippo said. “And I thought it would be fun to play with my friends this fall.”

UMPI kicks off a seven-match regular season Saturday, Sept. 11, and things wrap up with the league championships in early Oct.

During his freshman baseball season at UMPI, Lippo led the Owls in at-bats (57), while tying for second in hits (15), RBI (7), and stolen bases (2).

He was third in total bases (17), runs (8), and batting average (.263) among regulars.

Lippo played baseball for the Lynnwood Llamas this summer in the Cascade Collegiate League, helping them finish 16-6 and win the league’s postseason title.

Back in his Coupeville High School days, Skyy’s twin brother played tennis, basketball, and baseball.
