“Breakin’ ankles and takin’ names, all day long. It’s what I do.”

A step away from being the next wave of Wolf hoops stars.

That’s where Coupeville’s 6th/7th grade SWISH players are.

Some will make their debut as Coupeville Middle School players this winter, while others are still a year away. But they’re coming, and they’re hungry.

Learn their names. Appreciate their games.

You’ll be seeing them for years to come (if we’re lucky).

As they played Saturday, travelin’ photo man John Fisken was there to capture them on film.

“You will not pass!! Or shoot! Or keep your sense of hearing…”

finger

“I don’t need all my fingers to score on this team!”

defense

   Eyes always moving, a young Wolf moves to cut off the opposing point guard’s path to the bucket.

"You dare to play defense? ON ME?!?!?!"

“You dare to play defense? ON ME?!?!?!”

team

What caught your attention first? Their skills or their Day-Glo uniforms?

The future of Wolf basketball isn’t wearing red and black.

More like Day-Glo orange.

Coupeville’s 5th grade SWISH girls’ squad, wearing eye-popping uniforms, battled Anacortes into overtime Saturday, as travelin’ photo man John Fisken clicked away.

   Mary Kay cosmetics can hold off the ravages of the apocalypse. “Hold still. A little concealer and no one will know the difference…”

The kids are not alright.

Well, you’d have to be a zombie to want to live in Oak Harbor…

I kid. I kid.

Sort of.

Saturday brought a monster mash/zombie crawl to Midway Blvd. in Oak Harbor, and, staying one step ahead of the hungry walkers was ramblin’ photo man John Fisken.

Can’t wait until Sunday to get your fix of The Walking Dead? 

You’re in luck, then.

P.S. — No really, where’s Carl?!?! I told him to stay in the house!!

Mattea Miller (Jon Fisken photos)

CHS track star Mattea Miller is tutu fast for you to catch. (John Fisken photos)

suit

“Business up top, speed demon down below, baby.”

Wonder Woman

   “Well yes, I would like to know why Wonder Woman has had to wait so long for her own movie…”

T2 intensity

   The last time I saw this look, I was in a theater watching “Terminator 2,” and the T-1000 was chasing Arnold down a freeway.

McKenzie Bailey

She works hard for the money. McKenzie Bailey, the brains behind everything.

knight

   Now, it’s possible the guy on the right lost his trusty steed and is actually chasing his horse. Never know.

heart

“Take my photo and I chop your head off, paparazzi!!”

"Take me out for a walk, they said. Didn't say nothing 'bout no costumes..."

   “Take me out for a walk, they said. Didn’t say nothing ’bout wearing no costumes. If the other dogs hear about this…”

old man

“Keep up, old man! I’m gonna lap you!!”

Wonder Woman was in town Saturday.

In fact, at least two versions of her, and a whole ton of other costume-clad folks, were on display as the Coupeville Boys and Girls Club held a costume 5K.

We could try and track down who won, and what their times were, or we could just skip all that and move on to the photos.

Photos, it is.

John Fisken

   Travelin’ photo man John Fisken goes in front of the camera, as Wolf spikers dye his hair pink to honor his sister, who has fought cancer three times.

Fisken

The horror of knowing your sassy silver locks have been messed with.

bench

   They’ve got this down to a science. Opening introductions? Sure. But photos first. Always!!

crowd

The CHS student section prepares to get rowdy.

"Are Rose and Parker still hugging?!?!?"

“Are Rose and Parker still hugging?!?!?”

"Yes, ma'am!!!!"

“Yes, ma’am!!!!”

Abby Parker and Kayla Rose like hugging.

That, and other important tidbits of info can be discovered in the photos above, which capture the stuff going on around the edges of Thursday night’s CHS volleyball matches.

The games themselves? Kind of important.

The time spent in front of the camera? Super, duper important.
