Hunter and Joey Lippo
Diamond life suits him.
Coupeville grad Joey Lippo, who was a dynamic baseball player in both high school and college, is moving into his mentorship era.
The former Wolf will join wife Hunter (Perkins) Lippo in leading Fort Fairfield High School softball in Maine as the duo have been hired as head coaches by the program.
The Tigers play from late April through June.
Hunter Lippo is an alum of Fort Fairfield and expressed a great deal of happiness in rejoining the program where she played her high school ball.
“Coming back to a program that means so much to me and now getting to lead it alongside my husband is something really special,” she wrote on Facebook.
“We’re so excited for the season ahead. We’ve already began building relationships with these girls and creating a team culture that’s supportive, hardworking, and fun.
“Cannot wait to see what this season has in store for this team.”
Joey Lippo, who graduated in 2018 from CHS alongside twin sister Skyy, was a three-sport athlete for the Wolves, playing tennis, basketball, and baseball.
At the collegiate level he played both golf and baseball for the University of Maine at Presque Isle.
Over his four-year run on the UMPI diamond, Joe and Connie’s son played in 117 games, recording 412 at-bats, 79 runs, 117 hits, 11 doubles, five triples, two home runs, 52 RBI, 49 walks, and 16 stolen bases.
