A roster will help tell you who the players are, but the coaches don’t wear jerseys with numbers on them.
So, here you go, crisp photographic evidence of the men and women currently calling the shots for Coupeville High School basketball.
Which makes it easier next time you show up, autograph book in hand.
It’s a public service is what I’m saying.

The seasons are a’changing.
It’s not just Daylight Savings Time, which is roaring up on us, but also the sounds of basketballs thunking against gym floors.
The Coupeville Middle School boys are the first ones to claim the hardwood, having opened practice Monday.
The 10-game Wolf schedule runs through Dec. 19, with the first game set for Nov. 13.

Greg White returns to coach, while Jon Roberts and Craig Anderson join him this time around.
Continuing a new trend started during volleyball season, the CMS hoops squads will not be divided up by grade, but by talent level.
Instead of 7th and 8th playing separately, there will be three teams — Level 1, 2, and 3 — with each squad featuring a mix of the two grades.
Two days into practice, the Wolf coaches have 26 players to draw upon.
While some may go, and some may show up late, here’s how things stand as of mid-Tuesday:
7th:
Jordan Bradford
Hunter Bronec
Hurlee Bronec
Carson Fields
Tavan Hughes
Jesus Madrigal
Jack Porter
Johnny Porter
Zander Pulliam
Landon Roberts
Nic Wasik
8th:
Ryan Blouin
Alex Clark
William Davidson
Logan Downes
JP Edoukou
Nathan Ginnings
Nick Guay
Justin Jansen
Harlan Mouw
Timothy Nitta
Zane Oldenstadt
Mikey Robinett

We’re kind of getting ahead of ourselves, but just barely.
While fall sports are still chugging along, with plenty of games left to play, we’re also just two weeks away from the start of Coupeville Middle School boys basketball.
CMS soccer and cross country wrap up Oct. 23, then, bam, five days later, the Wolf boys head to the gym, with the first practice set for Oct. 28.
Games begin Nov. 13, with the 10-game season running about five weeks, then there’s an almost two-month gap before the CMS girls get their crack at basketball.
When games start, the CMS boys play four of their first five away from Whidbey, but also get a three-game home-stand to close the season.
Also, following a new wrinkle which debuted during volleyball, the hoops teams won’t be divided into 7th and 8th grade teams, but will instead feature three squads, referred to as Level 1, 2, and 3.
The teams will play in a different order almost every time out, just to keep people guessing.
The Wolves will be coached by returning hoops guru Greg White and CMS newcomers Jon Roberts and Craig Anderson.
The schedule:
Wed-Nov. 13 — @King’s (3:15)
Thur-Nov. 14 — Northshore Christian Academy (3:15)
Mon-Nov. 18 — @Granite Falls (3:15)
Tues-Nov. 26 — @Sultan (3:30)
Mon-Dec. 2 — @Lakewood (3:15)
Wed-Dec. 4 — King’s (3:15)
Mon-Dec. 9 — @Northshore Christian Academy (3:30)
Wed-Dec. 11 — Sultan (3:15)
Mon-Dec. 16 — South Whidbey (3:15)
Thur-Dec. 19 — Granite Falls (3:15)

The gym is alive with the sound of squeaking shoes.
Basketball has returned to Coupeville, and Monday’s middle school opener brought out a large crowd of fans and a handful of those working for their suppers.
One of the latter was paparazzi to the stars John Fisken, who worked every angle of the court, firing away with an assortment of cameras.
The pics seen above are but a small taste, however.
If you want to see everything he shot, and possibly purchase some glossies for Grandma, pop over to:
And, when you go, remember that purchases help fund scholarships for CHS senior student/athletes.
