The ’59-’60 Wolves finished even with Darrington and shared a league title.
Conard sails in for a bucket.
The ’60-’61 team included Denny Clark, one of the highest-scoring players in Wolf hoops history.
The early ’60s were a strong time for Coupeville High School basketball.
With local legends like Denny Clark, Utz Conard and Robin Larson rampaging across the hardwood, the Wolves were frequent title contenders.
The photos above capture a few moments out of time from seasons during that time period, and come to us courtesy Tom Conard, who followed his dad onto the court.
And he did pretty well for himself.
The younger Conard was a member of the ’87-’88 CHS squad which stands as the last Wolf boys hoops team to make it to the state tourney.
