Landon Roberts exited with a bang.

The Coupeville High School senior collected three of his team’s seven awards Wednesday when Wolf baseball capped its season with a banquet.

Roberts was tabbed as the Defensive Player of the Year and the Swiss Army Knife Award winner, while also being honored for playing hardball all four years of his high school run.

Joining him as award winners were Camden Glover (Offensive Player of the Year), Aiden O’Neill (Wolf Pack Leader), Riley Lawless (Most Improved) and Leo Rodriguez (Future Prospect).

Baseball, which is the first CHS spring sports team to hold a banquet, finished 6-13 overall, 5-7 in Northwest 2B/1B League play.

The highlight of the season for the Wolves was a point where they reeled off six wins in an eight-game span at midseason.

The bats and gloves are put away for now, but the memories will live on.

Coupeville High School softball enjoyed one of the best seasons in program history this spring, going 20-3 and splitting four games at state.

The Wolves eliminated big-timers Colfax and Raymond-South Bend at the tourney, playing until a moment or two before midnight on the first of two days in Yakima.

While the players and their support crew are back at home in Coupeville now, Wolf Nation is still abuzz.

The following letter comes to us from Sean Anter, owner of Front Street Grill, and Grandpa to sophomore sensation Capri Anter:

 

As I sat back in the bleachers during the final state game of 2025, I am thinking about the season that brought them here. 

Quite honestly, it wasn’t even the wins and losses. It was the relationships and bonds these girls have with each other.

I really haven’t seen anything like it.

How much they root for each other. How much they show up and play for each other. Share in each other’s successes and failures.

How much they simply just love each other.

I really only know Taylor (Brotemarkle) personally, as she works with me at Front Street Grill, as well as Capri, who is my granddaughter.

But even the emotion of Senior Night got to this guy. 

I felt the love they all have for one another in such a profound way.

Watching these girls all season through state I couldn’t be more proud of them.

The hearts these girls have for the game and for each other was absolutely amazing to witness.

Even though the end was not what they hoped for, they have come away with something way more longer lasting.

They won the hearts of each other, family, friends, and the Coupeville community.

Go Wolves!

The planned backstop for CHS softball rises much higher in the air than the current version.

The current protective barrier features plenty of air space, allowing softballs to easily escape.

Fly, fly away, no more?

The agenda for Thursday’s Coupeville School Board meeting includes approval for improvements to the high school softball field, which should vastly cut down on foul balls making it to freedom.

Specifically, the mobile home park across the road — and cars driving by on Terry Road itself — should be under less assault.

The new backstop would bring Coupeville into the modern age, as the current low-slung version was installed back when teams were still playing slow pitch, and not fast pitch.

CHS has been a fast pitch program since 2002.

The softball field work, which will include moving the scoreboard, is part of a capitol project funded by a levy which also provided for new tennis courts to be installed next to the CHS gym.

The softball contract up for approval Thursday is for $150,000.

Jada Heaton, heart and soul of her team, enjoys the day, as always. (Jackie Saia photos)

Jackie Saia has done it all on the softball diamond.

She was a talented player at several levels back in the day, then led the Coupeville High School sluggers as a coach.

Now, as her own daughter, Teagan “The Red Dragon” Calkins, shines brightly as the Wolf catcher, Saia keeps her camera clicking away, documenting the exploits of her progeny and her teammates.

The CHS teacher and yearbook advisor was in Yakima this weekend, as Teagan and Co. made a successful four-game run at the 2B state tourney, and the pics above and below come to us courtesy of the camera-wielding Wolf Mom.
