Basketball is back.

Thanks to the pandemic, games are being played in spring/early summer this time around, instead of winter, but it’s important to note — they are going to be played.

Both the Coupeville High School girls and boys hoops programs have 12-game schedules (down from the normal 18-20), with the first live action on the road May 18 in Mount Vernon.

Home openers are set for May 20, with Orcas Island the foe, and the season runs through June 17.

She’s bona fide.

Coupeville grad Makana Stone was named to the National Basketball League Team of the Week Tuesday, the ninth time she’s received the honor this season.

The former Wolf, who’s playing for Loughborough University in England, was honored for her play Saturday in the regular-season finale, when she went for 20 points, 14 rebounds, and three assists in a 75-73 win over Nottingham Trent.

Stone netted three free throws in the final 12 seconds to lift the Riders to the come-from-behind win.

Loughborough, which is 12-5 overall, 12-3 with their American assassin in the lineup, open the single-elimination, eight-team NBL playoffs with a home clash against Reading May 15.

On the season, Stone sits with 240 points, 215 rebounds, 32 assists, 54 steals, and eight blocked shots.

Winner, winner, lobster dinner

Joey Lippo

They’re off the schneid.

It took them 18 games, but Monday, in the final rumble of the season, the University of Maine at Presque Isle baseball squad got that elusive first W.

Beating the University of Maine at Farmington 7-3, the Owls, who include Coupeville grad Joey Lippo, finished a pandemic-altered season on a high note.

It was the first win for UMPI since March 29, 2019 — breaking a 39-game losing streak.

Lippo wasn’t around for the first 22 of those losses, and he’s been one of the few bright spots for this year’s 1-17 team.

The former Wolf collected five hits across four games in a pair of season-ending doubleheaders Sunday and Monday, and finishes in the team’s top three in multiple offensive categories.

Lippo ends the season first in at-bats (57), and tied 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.

Toss in two doubles, five walks — including being plunked once — and strong defensive play in the outfield, and Lippo’s first go-round in NCAA D-III baseball was a successful one.

All the action, all the wins.

After a 13-year dry spell, Coupeville High School has now posted back-to-back winning seasons on the gridiron.

Playing through the pandemic, the Wolves finished 3-2 while playing fall sports in the spring, and wanderin’ camera clicker John Fisken was on hand to capture the final moments.

The pics above and below are courtesy him.
