Matthew Kelley (10) will not be denied. The ball belongs to him.

The guys have first.

Middle school basketball officially kicks off next Monday (Nov. 30) when Coupeville hosts Chimacum.

Tip-off time is 3:15, with the 8th graders playing in the high school gym and the 7th graders holding court across the hallway in the middle school gym.

That will hold true for a 10-game schedule which has the CMS boys playing at home on Mondays and on the road Thursdays.

The boys wrap their season Jan. 14, then the Wolf girls will inherit the court starting Feb. 1.

As you mentally prepare for the home opener, here’s a look at the roster, which numbers 27 players including a number of guys who have been already making names for themselves at the SWISH level.

7th grade:

Tyson Bovee
Michael Breuer
Alex Jimenez
Matthew Kelley
James Mayne
Jake Mitten
Daniel Olson
Gage Powers
Ben Smith
Jacob Thurston

8th grade:

Gracy Woollet brings the pain.

There’s no high school team, but that doesn’t stop the young guns.

Six Coupeville students, including three from the same family, are competing with the Whidbey Wildcats Wrestling Club this season.

Five of the six saw action this weekend, with sixth grader Lita Woollet and fourth grader Seth Woollet both taking second place in their divisions Saturday at the Anacortes Hawkeyes Novice Tournament.

Lita advanced to the championship round, while Seth rebounded after an early loss.

Gracy Woollet (2nd grade) and Jacob Barajas (2nd grade) also wrestled Sunday, while Dylan Estes (6th grade) took part in Saturday’s Anacortes Hawkeyes Open.

Sixth-grader Daniel Barajas is also on the club roster, but did not compete this weekend.

So many photos still out there…

As we enter that stretch between the end of fall sports and the start of winter sports, I’m going back through the mountains of pics shot during September and October, in an effort to retrieve some of those which never saw the light of day.

It wasn’t that they weren’t great shots, but they ended up being bumped at the time for one reason or another.

Now, we’re reclaiming them.

This time around, it’s Coupeville Middle School volleyball pics shot by travelin’ photo man John Fisken.

“You really think you can stop my shot?!?!?”

The Wolves are on the prowl.

Coupeville’s 6th/7th grade SWISH girls’ basketball team opened the weekend with a howl, traveling down to La Conner Saturday and decimating their opponents.

The Wolves shredded Mount Vernon Christian 40-14 to improve their league record to a flawless 2-0.

Coupeville is 2-2 overall.

Basketball begins again.

Well, in a week it does.

Next Monday, Nov. 9, Coupeville Middle School boys’ hoops hotshots get a head start on everyone with their first day of practice.

CMS girls start Feb. 1, after the boys are done, while the high school squads kick off practice Nov. 16.

The CMS boys, who are coached by Bob Martin (8th) and Randy King (7th), are set to kick off game play the last day of November, with a 10-game schedule.

The Wolves will be home on Mondays this season (action tips off at 3:15) and hit the road Thursdays, with two games each against five opponents.

When the girls take over in February they’ll flip the schedule, with road games on Mondays and home games Thursday.

I would tell you to laminate the schedules, but, if the past is any kind of reliable indication, it might be better to write the dates down with a pencil and keep a big eraser handy.

To keep up to date on any changes, pop over to: http://coupeville.tandemcal.com/

The schedules as they appear today:

CMS boys:

Mon-Nov. 30 Chimacum
Thur-Dec. 3 @ Port Townsend
Mon-Dec. 7 Forks
Thur-Dec. 10 @ Stevens
Mon-Dec. 14 Sequim
Thur-Dec. 17 @ Chimacum
Mon-Jan. 4 Port Townsend
Thur-Jan. 7 @ Forks
