They went out with a bang.

Having put together the best season by a Coupeville High School volleyball team since 2004, the Wolf spikers fought until the final point Saturday at districts.

Along for the ride, camera in hand and hopping back and forth between gyms, was local paparazzi John Fisken, who delivers us the pics above.

“And where do you think you’re going?!!”

Time to put the gear away.

Wrapping up its season a little later than originally expected, the Coupeville Middle School football squad fell 19-8 Wednesday at Chimacum.

The game, which was pushed back from its originally scheduled date when wind played havoc with the ferry, was played, not surprisingly, in tons o’ wind.

That made life difficult on the Wolves, who wanted to come out runnin’ and gunnin’.

“Lot of good things, but the wind was a huge factor,” said CMS head coach Bob Martin. “Wanted a pass game, ended up with a run game and lots of dropped balls.”

Still, even in defeat, Coupeville continued to show a lot of positive signs.

The Wolves thrashed Port Townsend this season and were competitive in every other game, especially against schools that didn’t boast rosters three times the size of what CMS could offer

Now, 8th graders like Jake Mitten, Cade Golden and Sage Downes will make the jump to high school ball, while the team’s 7th graders will form the core of the next CMS squad.

However they line up next fall, these players have impressed their coaches.

“So proud of the progress they have made this year!,” said assistant coach Michael Davidson.

They made things easy on the photographer.

Thanks to a last-second change in the schedule, the Coupeville High School JV football squad ended up playing Monday in Oak Harbor.

That was enough to lure wanderin’ paparazzi John Fisken out of his nearby home and away from the Halloween candy.

The photos above are courtesy him.

We’re still waiting on any candy, though…

Well, at least one of us wasn’t sick.

While I stayed back in Coupeville Friday with a touch of the good ol’ stomach flu, wanderin’ paparazzi John Fisken was feeling hale and hearty and hopped on the ferry to cover Coupeville’s football game against Chimacum.

The photos above, which come from various stages of a 24-6 Wolf win, are courtesy him.
