  Lindsey Roberts did not actually touch the ground during the hurdles. She actually flew from start to finish just like this. True fact.

Ja'Tara Hoskins

  The speed is back. Ja’Tarya Hoskins, little sis of former CHS state medalist Jai’Lysa, writes another chapter of family excellence.

"All your wins are mine."

“All your wins are mine.”

Pictures first, words later.

While we wait for results to be posted online for Thursday’s middle school track meet at Langley, the final regular season performance for Coupeville, here are some snappy pics to marinate in.

They come to us courtesy John Fisken, and, if you like ’em, maybe amble on over and see the trillion or so other photos he’s snapped.

Purchases help fund college scholarships for CHS senior student/athletes, with the winners for this year announced June 2.

“Try and sneak past me, will you, Mr. Softball?!?! I’ll murderize ya!!” (John Fisken photos)

"Quicksand?!?! Why did it have to be QUICKSAND?!?!?!?"

“Quicksand?!?! Why did it have to be QUICKSAND?!?!?!?”

"They said I threw like a girl and I asked them why they kept swinging and missing. They don't talk much anymore..."

  “They said I threw like a girl and I asked them why they kept swinging and missing. They don’t talk much anymore…”

"You want to check the balls, just cause I said I was a Tom Brady fan?

A double play and a Tour en l’air on the same play? Nice.

  “And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger!!” What do you mean, he’s too young to quote “Pulp Fiction?”

"And where do we think we're going? No one escapes my glove. I said NO ONE!!"

“And where do we think we’re going? No one escapes my glove. I said NO ONE!!”

"Just try and catch my heater!"

“Just try and catch my heater!”

"Um, no thanks ... I'm good..."

“Um, no thanks … I’m good…”

The diamonds overflow with action.

Every time you turn around, another Central Whidbey Little League team is playing, and never-say-take-a-nap photo man John Fisken is there to click away each time.

Or, at least it seems that way.

The action above covers a wide array of divisions, with a little bit for everyone.

The entire town might not have been in Coupeville’s Memorial Day parade Saturday, but it was probably close.

Showing big cities everywhere how it’s done, Central Whidbey closed off the streets and put together its best show on a day of remembrance.

Music, costumes, floats and tributes to fallen warriors — Cow Town at its best.

"You dare to run on my arm? MY ARM?!?!?!? Fool!!!!" (John Fisken photos)

“You dare to run on my arm? MY ARM?!?!?!? Fool!!!!” (John Fisken photos)

That moment when you realize you really don't want to bunt.

Bunting while blind.

"Yeah, you ain't hittin' that one, son! There's a seat on the bench waitin' for your butt!!"

“Yeah, you ain’t hittin’ that one, son! There’s a seat on the bench waitin’ for your butt!!”

"If chicks dig the long ball, just call me the Ryan Gosling of this league!!"

“If chicks dig the long ball, just call me the Ryan Gosling of this league!!”

"To the people who parked their cars too close to the outfield fence, my apologies in advance."

“To the people who parked their cars too close to the outfield fence, my apologies in advance.”

"All eyes

“All eyes lock on the young outfielder as he moves in to make the catch of the century. There is no way this baseball is getting away from me!!”

"Told ya!!!"

“Told ya!!!”

If you’re looking out your window right now, it doesn’t look like baseball weather.

But ignore the current rain, because Central Widbey Little League has been playing games. Often in quite sunny weather.

The proof is in the photos above, which capture a game between CWLL’s Majors baseball squad and NW Red Sox.

See? I’m not lying.
