Best way to kick off a new season?

Portrait night.

With basketball returning to the CHS gym Wednesday, the Wolf winter cheer squad made its debut on the sidelines as well, and travelin’ photo man John Fisken was there to document the proceedings.

By the time he was done clicking, we had these extra-glossy, suitable-for-framing photos of the 10 young women who are repping the red and black this season.

To all the mamas and grandmas out there, you’re welcome.

Court queens return to action!!

When Kyla Briscoe is on the rampage, there’s no stopping her. (John Fisken photos)

Plus, she’s got a nice-sized fan section that includes big sis Tiffany.

That moment as a defender when you realize you’re dead in the water and Lauren Rose is about to obliterate you.

You do not shoot on Allison Wenzel’s hoop. Ever.

Makana Stone: “Excuse me while I sneak past you and grab that rebound.”

CHS coach David King imparts wisdom to his squad. “The more times you put the ball in the bucket, the less angina I have, ladies.”

Lauren Grove, the Leaning Tower of Rebound.

The basketball has only been gone for a second and Mia Littlejohn already misses it.

The most successful teams in the school are back.

Of course, the Coupeville High School girls’ basketball squads are not quite the same teams as a year ago, when they combined to go 29-12 and sweep 1A Olympic League titles.

Graduation and attrition have shuffled the rosters, but the same spirit remains.

As they opened a new season Wednesday against Island rival South Whidbey, travelin’ photo man John Fisken was on hand to document the on-and-off-court doings.

Some of his best work can be seen above.

Rumble on the hardwood!!

Cameron Toomey-Stout’s free-throw game is so strong all South Whidbey players can do is stand back, smile, and marvel at the beauty of it all.

Jordan Ford (left) and Jared Helmstadter team up to play lock-down defense.

Beauman Davis reflects on his place in the cosmos while waiting for a teammate to get open.

Ryan Griggs, bringing back the old school ‘stache while rockin’ a new school jumper.

Try to guard Desmond Bell and you will feel the pain, son.

Risen Johnson, too quick for you to catch.

Luke Merriman, deep thinker. Or so he’d like us to believe.

The action was heated, the fouls had a little more emphasis than normal and the cameras were clicking.

Wednesday night brought another round of rivalry games to Coupeville, as eternal enemy South Whidbey ventured into the heart of the Island.

As the Wolves and Falcons clashed on the hard-court, travelin’ photo man John Fisken was busy working the sidelines in between sips of Diet Coke.

Some of his eye-poppin’ work is captured above for your light-reading entertainment.

Tip-off in style!!

They call Koa Davison “Dead-Eye” because he doesn’t miss. Well, if they don’t, they should.

Wolf fans gets extra-creative.

Jake Mitten, reviving the glory days of his uncle, former Wolf hoops legend Jason McFadyen.

Jered Brown splits the defense.

Come to a basketball game, go home with balloons.

Dakota Eck drops in a quick two.

He slices. He dices. He has moves for days. He’s Sean Toomey-Stout and you can’t contain (or stop) him.

Opening night was a huge hit.

Coupeville Middle School kicked off its boys’ basketball season Monday with two wins — the 7th graders romped, the 8th graders pulled it out in OT — a full gym and even a roving photographer or two.

While we have yet to see what pics Junior Photo Bomb Queen Mollie Bailey might have snapped (I’m working on it), we can present to you some of John Fisken’s work.

Who wants leftovers?!?!

CHS frosh Lindsey Roberts (left) hangs out for a moment with her mama, Wolf athletic legend Sherry (Bonacci) Roberts.

Then she’s off to grab another photo op, this time with Tami Aparicio (left) and Jennifer Kellner.

The hardest-working salad-making squad in all the land.

Sage Renninger thought she just saw a crab leg move.

Wolf moms Kali Barrio (left) and Charlotte Young, up to no good.

Droppin’ side-eye, all day long.

Lauren Bayne planned ahead. Now that you’ve eaten turkey for three straight days, you’d pay extra for some crab legs, wouldn’t you?

So, it’s the day after the day after Thanksgiving, that time when you look in the frig and are like, “What? There are still leftovers in there?!?!”

You’re like, “Well, they’ve been in there for some time and they’re all stuck together…” and then you dive in and eat them all. You just do.

While I don’t have that 23rd slice of pie or the bite or two of cranberry sauce that got wedged in under the stuffing to offer, I do have some leftover photos.

Last Saturday was the Coupeville Booster Club’s biggest fundraiser event of the season — the annual Crab Feed and Auction — and photo whiz kids John Fisken and Ema Smith were there snapping away.

At the time, we ran photo essays by both of them, but, there were so many photos, we couldn’t use them all.

So now, a week later, I’m clearing out digital space and presenting to you the leftovers.

Just nuke them in the (mental) microwave and enjoy.
