The batter ordered the high, hard cheese and Julian Welling is ready to deliver it piping hot. (John Fisken photos)

Airborne and elastic, CHS goalie Connor McCormick covers the entire net.

Hungry for another big hit, Mikayla Elfrank carries a big bat and knows how to use it.

Jacob Martin auditions for the role of the T-1000 in the next “Terminator” film.

Don’t try anything, cause Hunter Smith has his eye on you. (Sylvia Hurlburt photo)

Tamika Nastali is aiming for the fence. Yep, the one way out there in center field. (Fisken photos)

Doubles ace Payton Aparicio reaches to the heavens as she unleashes a serve.

Uriel Liquidano (3) keeps his foe as far away as possible.

Currently sitting as the fastest 4 x 200 girls relay team in 1A, it’s (l to r) Sylvia Hurlburt, Makana Stone, Lindsey Roberts and Lauren Grove.

Friday was lovely.

Sunny, no rain, maybe just a ripple or two of breeze across the prairie.

So, of course, there was absolutely, positively no spring sports games scheduled for today.

As opposed to Wednesday, when Coupeville High School softball waged war while being lashed by gale force winds for three hours.

Such is life for athletes playing outside on a rock in the water in March.

Since we didn’t have any live action to report on, here are a collection of photos showcasing all five CHS sports teams, just to remind you what they look like when in action.

Why? Why not.

Gone with the wind (again)!!

Jae LeVine can’t keep her eyes open in the wind, but her glove always knows where to be to make the play. (John Fisken photos)

Wolf volleyball/basketball ace Kyla Briscoe, the only fan even remotely warm on this day.

Fighting the wind all the way, CHS first baseman Veronica Crownover stretches out to haul in a throw headed towards Oak Harbor.

Wolf spikers Ashley Menges (left) and Maddy Hilkey miss being in a heated gym.

If the catcher and ump could open their eyes in the heart of the gale, they’d see Katrina McGranahan crushing the ball.

Wolf mom Jennifer Kellner: “Remember how warm the gym was during basketball season?”

Lauren Rose’s papa: “YES, sweet lord, YES, I do!!!!!!!!!!!”

Adjusting for winds of 200+ MPH (at least…), catcher Sarah Wright takes a chance on throwing the ball back to the pitcher’s circle.

“It’s like freakin’ Acapulco out here!!!!”

It was not pleasant on the prairie Wednesday.

While there was not a drop of rain to be found, the wind roaring down from straightaway center field was even more brutal than normal.

And it never, ever let up as Coupeville and Bellevue Christian played the longest game of the spring.

And yet, very few Wolf faithful departed until the end of a mind-boggling 17-16 come-from-behind, how-did-that-happen CHS win.

To prove it, we have a selection of wind-swept pics from travelin’ photo man John Fisken (who did leave before the final run…) to document the inner steel of Coupeville’s players and fans.

Get your kicks with fancy clicks!!

Nick Dion, in your face. (John Fisken photos)

William Nelson walks (or, more likely, dances) the line.

Wolf goalie Jose Marcos strikes a pose during pre-game warmups.

CHS athletes turned fans for a day (l to r) Ally Roberts, May Rose and Bree Daigneault enjoy an afternoon in the bleachers.

Zane Bundy (right), who missed most of last season with an injury, celebrates his first goal of the season.

Andre Avila (24) fears no man, as he wades into the fray, playing one-on-three (and winning).

Hurtling out of nowhere, the heat-seeking missile known as Tanner Kircher arrives to freak out a Sequim player.

Warmed up by the magical power of store-bought cookies, Wolf fans ignore the falling rain.

Abraham Leyva is either celebrating his third goal in as many games … or he has an epic wedgie.

They played on, through some rain drops and a hail of goals.

Tuesday’s soccer games didn’t have the shiniest of results for the Coupeville High School booters, as both Wolf squads fell to 2A Sequim.

But, the photos turned out nicely, so there’s that.

The pics above are courtesy rain-proof camera clickin’ ace John Fisken.

Right on track!!

Mitchell Carroll has places to go, and he’s in a hurry to get there. (John Fisken photos)

Ariah Bepler (left) and Jacob Martin ponder the fate of the universe (or maybe just what they’re getting at McDonald’s on the way home).

Abby Parker glides by, every step carefully calculated for maximum impact.

Grey Rische strikes a pose as he prepares to say goodbye to his javelin.

If Ashlie Shank was less than thrilled to be on a bus at 8 AM, she hides it well.

Like a cheetah erupting in pursuit of its prey, Lindsey Roberts goes from 0-60 in two steps.

Flying down the backstretch, speedy Jordan Ford can feel the flames shooting off of his feet.

Lauren Bayne doesn’t actually jump over the hurdles. She just glides from start to finish, never really coming down.

A PR in every event.

Well, maybe not every event, but a lot of them for sure, as the Coupeville High School track and field squad set 26 individual marks Saturday.

Having jumped across to the mainland, camera gear in hand, travelin’ photo man John Fisken clicked away madly at the Port Angeles Invitational, and the photos above are courtesy him.
