If it’s burnin’, John Fisken is yearnin’ … to take some photos.

The dynamic duo is movin’ on up.

Coupeville grads turned coaches Craig Anderson and Jon Roberts will jump from the middle school to the high school this fall, replacing Hunter Smith as boys’ basketball JV coach.

The hires are 100% official when approved by the school board.

Smith departed after last season, capping a three-year run as JV coach.

Fire academy, a move off of Whidbey Island, and marriage to fellow CHS Athlete of the Year winner Payton Aparicio conspired to reduce Brad Sherman’s coaching staff.

The “new guys” are hardly new, since both have long-established roots both in Coupeville and with the Wolf basketball program.

Both Anderson and Roberts played high school hoops at CHS back in the day, and their sons Chase and Landon, respectively, currently suit up for the Wolves.

The duo coached successful middle school basketball teams, while Roberts is also the current high school JV baseball coach.

In their day jobs, Anderson is a Captain with the Oak Harbor Fire Department and Roberts owns Cascade Custom Homes and Design.

Hark! The squeaking of shoes on hardwood floors approaches.

God’s chosen sport — basketball — kicks off Oct. 31 with the first day of practice for the Coupeville Middle School boys hoops program.

High school teams begin in mid-November, while the CMS girls claim the court early in the new year.

But first up are the middle school boys, who will be led by returning coaches Jon Roberts and Craig Anderson.

Once they have enough practices under their belts, the Wolves kick off an eight-game season which runs from mid-Nov. to mid-Dec.
