Step up to help one of Coupeville’s best

Family friends have launched a GoFundMe to help Abby Mulholland and her parents.

The 2022 Coupeville grad, who played volleyball, basketball, and tennis for the Wolves, was seriously injured in a rollover car accident a week ago while at college.

Mulholland, who was a passenger in the back seat, was ejected from the vehicle.

She suffered two neck fractures, a brain bleed, a broken arm, broken pelvis, hip fracture, liver laceration, spleen laceration, deep knee cuts, and a bruised lung.

Initially housed at a hospital in Idaho, Mulholland is expected to be transferred to Spokane for the start of her rehabilitation.

While all signs have been positive, the former Wolf faces a lot of work to get back to 100%, and family friends are asking the community to help her parents, Moose and Renae, during the coming weeks and months.

Abby is part of one of Coupeville’s core sports families.

She is the granddaughter of the late, great Dorothy Keefe on her mom’s side of the family, and whether they go by Keefe or O’Keefe these days, her uncles and cousins can be found all over the school record books.

After playing volleyball and basketball herself, Abby finished her high school career as the #1 singles player for Ken Stange’s Wolf tennis team.

Mulholland rips a return.

The spike queen of the prairie needs your help.

Coupeville grad Emma Smith, who’s off being brilliant in the big city these days, is on the final leg of her journey as a member of the club volleyball program at the University of Washington.

Joli’s niece, and Steve’s granddaughter, practices three times a week with her Husky teammates and it shows on the floor.

Smith and her squad recently placed 3rd at a 24-team tourney, and now the U-Dub spikers are prepping for a trip to nationals, which will be held in Kansas City in April.

To get there, the Huskies need some financial help, and are conducting multiple fundraisers.

Smith and Co. have set up a crowdfunding page, where fans can help out with money to help cover the cost of flights, hotels, and tourney registration fees.

The former Wolf ace, a four-year varsity vet who joined up with fellow captain Ashley Menges to spark CHS on a state tourney run in 2017, played at nationals in Phoenix last season.

“It was definitely a highlight in my college career,” Smith said. “Spending time with my team and playing teams from across the country was an awesome experience.”

They scored big buckets, and big bucks.

Coupeville High School basketball teams won three of four games Friday night during their first home games in two weeks.

Making the night even sweeter, the Wolves, and their fans, raised nearly $1,000 for cancer research.

Taking part in their annual Coaches vs. Cancer event, this year renamed Coupeville vs. Cancer, CHS brought in $955 thanks to fundraising efforts.

The money was donated to the V Foundation for Cancer Research, which was founded by legendary college basketball coach Jim Valvano.

Friday night will be an impactful one in the Coupeville High School gym.

Wolf basketball teams, playing at home for the first time in two weeks, host Friday Harbor in bouts which will have a big impact on potential playoff seeding for the varsity squads.

Things kick off with the girls’ varsity playing in the CHS gym, and the JV boys across the hallway in the middle school gym, with 4:00 tipoffs.

The boys’ varsity and girls JV teams inherit the floors at 5:30ish.

But the games are just a part of the events.

Youth cheerleaders perform at halftime of the varsity boys’ game, capping several weeks of preparation.

Throughout the afternoon and evening, the focus will be on the annual Coaches vs. Cancer fundraiser, renamed Coupeville vs. Cancer this year.

Raffle tickets ($1 or donation) will be sold, offering supporters a chance to win goodie baskets made by the CHS cheer team. There will be drawings at halftime of both varsity games.

T-shirts and silicone bracelets commemorating the night will be available for donation. Any extras after players and coaches receive theirs, will be offered for free.

There will also be a poster in the entranceway to the gym that fans can write on to honor those “that are fighting/have fought/have lost” the cancer battle, said CHS Athletic Director Willie Smith.

This year’s event is focusing on all forms of cancer, with pens representing all the cancer awareness ribbons available at the sign-in table.

All money raised will be donated to the V Foundation for Cancer Research, which was founded by legendary college basketball coach Jim Valvano.
