Wolf girls shuffle hoops coaches

They’re changing up roles, for a season.

Coupeville High School girls’ basketball head coach Megan Richter is slated to deliver baby #2 shortly after the season tips off, so she’s handing off a chunk of her duties to JV coach Scout Smith.

Smith will slide into the main chair, with Lark Gustafson and Alita Blouin running the second squad during the 2025-2026 campaign.

While she won’t be front and center for a bit, Richter will be available as a resource and intends to be back on the sideline fulltime next season.

For now, though, “I’ll be around for the first couple of weeks as long as my body allows, but Scout is in charge from the beginning to the end this season.”

Smith, who scored 290 points during her time as a player with the Wolf hoops program, just wrapped her first season as varsity head coach with CHS volleyball.

A former CHS Female Athlete of the Year winner, she played volleyball, basketball, and softball for the school, helping lead both the spikers and diamond dandies to state as a team captain.

After graduating with degrees from the University of Washington and Gonzaga, she returned to her alma mater as a teacher and coach.

For her part, Smith is ready and raring to get going.

“I am super excited to lead this team this year,” she said.

“We have a great group of girls. A lot of really talented athletes and they are a blast to work with.

“I’m really glad I get to continue working with so many of the same players I just had in volleyball.”

Water wizard preps for final splash

He’s a two-timer looking to be a three-timer.

Coupeville High School senior Finn Price, who has advanced to the 1A/2A state swim and dive championships the past two seasons, is back for a final run in the pool.

Since CHS, a 2B school, doesn’t have a swim program of its own, the Lone Wolf hits the road, joining any South Whidbey water wizards, then completing the daily trek to Kamiak High School in Mukilteo.

While there Price trains and competes alongside swimmers from the 4A school, before going his own way during the postseason.

As a junior, he competed at state in the 100 and 200 free while battling a double ear infection, earning 5th place in the 100 free consolation finals.

A year earlier, Price capped his sophomore campaign by winning the state meet consolation finals in the 200 free, while also claiming fifth in the 100 free.

Coupeville’s aquatic king, who is also an Eagle Scout, advanced to districts as a freshman, winning the consolation finals in the 200 to kick off his impressive run.

With one final swing at glory, Price is determined to write an impressive final chapter.

“He’s excited to get going and has set some good goals for the 100 and 200 free,” said mom Rachel.

Robotics squad back in action

They’re powered up.

After competing in tandem with Oak Harbor for a while, Coupeville High School has launched its own robotics team once again.

The squad is officially FTC Team 32666, but they’re better known as the “32-Bit Devils” and they’re ready to shake up the robotics world.

School Board Director Alison Perera and physics/math teacher Logan Inces are the advisors, with 11 middle and high school students on the roster.

That group includes juniors Lina Shelly, Haylee Armstrong, and Lindy Sylvester, as well as sophomores Ryan Beaston and Noah Stribrny, and freshman Frank Morrell.

Eighth graders Ross Allred, Farrin Workman, Ash Prats, Hayli Marley, and Jade Peabody complete the team.

The 32-Bit Devils have competed in two league events in the FIRST Tech Challenge so far and currently sit sixth out of 12 teams.

Coupeville will step into the big time Dec. 7, when it attends a 26-team tourney off-Island featuring numerous squads from Seattle and Edmonds.

The FIRST Tech Challenge is “a robotics competition where teams of students design, build, and program small robots to score points in a series of fast-paced matches.”

Each match is played on a small court with two alliances (red and blue), and the alliances switch up with every match, meaning your partner in one round can be your rival later in the tourney.

This year’s game requires building a robot which shoots a wiffle ball into a standing goal.

L to r, it’s Alison Perera, Lindy Sylvester, Lina Shelly, Haylee Armstrong, Frank Morrell, Hayli Marley, Jade Peabody, Ross Allred, Farrin Workman, and Logan Ince.
