Dustin Van Velkinburgh lays out his strategy to Mercedes Kalwies-Anderson.

Alana Mihill dreams of raining down buckets.

The CMS gym was packed on opening day.

Samantha Streitler goes strong to the hoop.

   Alex Evans, channeling “The Untouchables,” coaches up Allie Lucero. “They send one of ours to the hospital, we send one of theirs to the morgue!”

Trinity McGee fires a pass.

   While rival players gasp at the destruction laid down by Wolf enforcer Ja’Kenya Hoskins, Audrianna Shaw snatches the ball away and heads off to score.

Basketball is back, even if it never really left.

With the high school teams and middle school boys all done, the floor fully belongs to the CMS girls, and they kicked off their season Thursday in style.

While the Wolves were thrashing visiting Chimacum, wanderin’ camera clicker John Fisken was busy popping off shots of his own.

Now, having returned from the state wrestling tourney, where son Michael was competing this weekend, Fisken was nice enough to share the photos above.

To see everything he shot, pop over to:

And, when you do, remember, purchases help fund college scholarships for CHS student/athletes.

Plus, they make it even more likely Fisken will continue to periodically visit Cow Town, camera in hand.

Time to put your money where your mouth is.

If everyone who said they loved the photos John Fisken shot put a few bucks out to support his camera-clicking, we’d be 983% more likely to frequently snatch him away from Oak Harbor.

With high school hoops all but done (All-League picks and team awards are still ahead), now is a perfect time to go back through everything the shutter bug shot, and maybe pluck some pics out for your mantelpiece.

To see everything Fisken shot in Cow Town this winter (high school girls and boys hoops plus middle school boys hardwood action) pop over to:

http://www.johnsphotos.net/Sports/Coupeville-basketball-2017-2018

PS — Along with all the normal hoops activity, that landing site also includes photos from the 101st anniversary of CHS boys basketball and pics shot by multi-talented frosh phenom Maddie Vondrak.

PPS — Buy pics Maddie Marvelous shot, and the money bypasses Fisken and goes directly into the pocket of one of Coupeville’s brightest young shooting stars.

The Wolf bench stays on top of the action.

Jakobi Baumann, backed by Jake Hoagland, fires up his horn.

Finding her way blocked, Hannah Davidson looks to pass out of trouble.

And the band played on.

   Though only a freshman, Chelsea Prescott played like a seasoned veteran in her playoff debut.

   International Man of Mystery Paul Messner is a favorite of cameramen everywhere.

   Avalon Renninger (20) clamps down on defense, with a little help from Maddy Hilkey (left) and Prescott.

Don’t get in front of John Fisken when he’s got someplace to be.

Shredding tires Saturday, the ever-busy camera bug hauled tail back from covering wrestling districts in Edmonds and, against all odds, made it to Whidbey in time to shoot the second half of Coupeville’s girls basketball playoff game.

The pics above are courtesy him.

And, when you do, remember, your purchases keep him going and help fund college scholarships for CHS student/athletes.

   It’s the same spirit shown by CHS athletes (l to r) Teo Keilwitz, Lauren Bayne and Payton Aparicio, who rep Cameron Toomey-Stout, Ethan Spark and Hunter Smith, respectively.

   Coupeville Schools Superintendent Dr. Jim Shank (middle) shares a joke with CHS Principal Duane Baumann (left) and Athletic Director Willie Smith.

   With no game in Oak Harbor, a few Wildcat fans made the trek to Cow Town to root for the Wolves.

   Kali Barrio considers bringing the heat. “Next guy who elbows my baby maybe doesn’t make it back to the bus…”

Catherine Lhamon is ready for her close-up, even if her companion is not.

   Justine McGranahan (middle) and Amy Briscoe chat, while CHS softball coach Kevin McGranahan contemplates how many pairs of long johns he’ll need to wear once “spring” sports start on the damp, wind-torn prairie.

   In a sea of phones, Menges (waving), Emma Mathusek (second from right) and Maya Toomey-Stout (far right) remain vigilent.

Photos falling like raindrops.

Thanks to the fastest portrait-clicker in the biz, the jacked-out-of-his-mind-on-Diet-Coke John Fisken, I have a slight surplus of pics at the moment.

The ones above, which capture fans at a recent Coupeville High School boys basketball game, are courtesy him.

   Sean “The Torpedo” Toomey-Stout (left) and Will “The Thrill” Nelson are just here for the sweet, sweet candy.

   That moment when you’re hoping against hope the school band shocks everyone and breaks out some Guns N’ Roses.

Lauren Rose (and her sticker) make for a happy duo.

Went to a basketball game and a good book broke out.

Mesmerized by Ethan Spark’s version of Blue Steel.

Having learned from his elders, he then busted out … Baby Blue Steel.

Kimberly Bepler gets her hug on.

   Rose is joined in a farewell smile-off by fellow Wolf volleyball stars (l to r) Ashley Menges, Lucy Sandahl and Emma Smith.

Babies as far as the eye can see.

Lil’ guys and girls dominated the stands Thursday at Coupeville’s final boys basketball home game, and they anchor this batch of fan photos.

Just to keep things fair, we’ve sprinkled in a few people of other ages, but, yep, it’s pretty much all about the babies.
