The sound you hear echoing across Whidbey Island this morning is the sound of men who have suddenly remembered they aren’t teenagers any more.
Oh, they played like they still were Saturday.
But Sunday morning, some will pay the toll.
For those involved, however, it was worth it, as a roll call from Coupeville High School’s basketball glory days reassembled for a day.
The event was the annual Tom Roehl Roundball Classic, a fundraiser started in honor of the former longtime Wolf coach.
Held every Christmas break, it raises scholarship money for local students, while giving former Wolves (and some hardy outsiders) a chance to reclaim their hardwood success.
