Today is all about the young guns.
Three freshmen who have all made an impact for Coupeville High School sports teams this school year are celebrating a joint birthday.
It’s all about the cake for Tavian Woolett and brothers Jakobi and Jaschon Baumann.
Woolett announced himself on the gridiron back in the fall, terrorizing opponents as a two-way threat.
Whether picking up chunks of yardage as a receiver or runner, or hauling down folks on the defensive side of the ball (where he popped up on the varsity stat sheet), Tavian played hard whistle to whistle.
Often praised in print by Wolf JV coach Ryan King, he has a combination of skills, work ethic and grit, which is always nice to see.
The battlin’ Baumann brothers started on the tennis court and have since taken their skill sets to different sports in the spring.
Jaschon is running the soccer pitch for the Wolves, while Jakobi is just flat out running, as a member of the Coupeville track squad, where he has one of the ten best times among 1A runners in the 3000.
Like their dad, Duane, the CHS Athletic Director and soon-to-be Principal, the duo are low-key guys who surprise with a nice sense of humor.
Having spent a soccer game or two up in the press box with them, I can attest both Baumann brothers can crack jokes (and good ones) while still keeping the scoreboard and iPad hummin’ along. They got skills.
So, as all three of these young Wolves hit their milestone day, we just want to take a moment and wish them the best.
Happy birthday, guys. Keep flying high.
