If this picture is any indication, Zoe Trujillo will be just as feisty on the court as older sister Valen. Which was very, very feisty. (John Fisken photos)

Oliana Stange dreams of breakin’ ankles and takin’ names.

Tia Wurzrainer (left) and Maya Toomey-Stout work on their ball-handling skills.

“Me! I want the ball, coach!! Give me the rock!!” Ema Smith, stone-cold hoops assassin.

“Dribbling drills all day long? I want to start bustin’ some heads, coach!!”

Try and touch her basketball and Kalia Littlejohn pledges to let you taste the fury of her elbow.

Heart of a champion.

The future is fine-tuning its skills set.

With the start of a new Coupeville Middle School girls’ basketball season less than two weeks away, the Wolves are hard at work.

Dribbling drills, rebound work, learning to pose for the camera man — all in a day’s work.

Wandering through the gym before heading across the hallway to snap high school action, John Fisken caught the next generation of hoops stars hard at work.

“Ooh, too slow, that’s gotta blow.” Maddie Big Time breaks down the defense without missing a beat. (John Fisken photos)

Need someone to play strong in the paint? Tiffany Briscoe is your woman.

“Should have brought an umbrella, cause I make it rain!!” Julia Myers can’t be stopped by mortal hands.

Lauren Grove clamps down on D.

Hailey Hammer makes the ref work for his pay, leading a lightning-quick fast break.

Brisa Herrera has eyes only for the rebound she’s about to snatch.

Mia Littlejohn is not in a mood to share the ball.

Kailey Kellner doesn’t need to see the ball. She has rebound radar.

They’re slicin’ n’ dicin’ the Olympic League.

One spin through the new conference and both Coupeville High School girls’ basketball squads are a pristine 3-0, with wins over Klahowya, Port Townsend and Chimacum.

Varsity or JV, the Wolves are the premier program in the land these days, plus they take pretty good pictures.

Snapping away at Wednesday’s doubleheader was travelin’ photo man John Fisken, who provides the pics above.

Joel Walstad is in full-on denial mode. (John Fisken photos)

Hunter Smith gets animated as he glides in for a quick bucket.

Aaron Trumbull only needs one hand to shoot. The other is to high-five the defender after the ball hits nothing but net.

Joey Lippo's feet are going in two different directions but the ball is going in just one direction -- to the bottom of the net.

Joey Lippo has a license to shoot.

“Dear sweet lord, he’s right behind me, isn’t he?!?!”

Desmond Bell believes he can fly. He’s right.

Isaac Vargas has claimed the paint for himself. Enter at your own risk.

Dante Mitchell rises up to snatch a board away from a pair of Chimacum players.

Even in a pair of losses, there were bright moments.

While both of the Coupeville High School boys’ basketball teams fell Wednesday, big plays popped up all over the place and travelin’ photo man John Fisken was on hand to capture most of them with a click of the camera.

Sophomores, makin’ their parents proud. Left to right, the always-stylish Jimmy Myers, Jonathan Thurston, Uriel Liquidano and Aiden Crimmins.

Wolf cheerleaders (l to r) Camilla Rische, Ciera St Onge, Elizabeth Bishop and Jovanah Foote, already full of pep hours before the game.

And repping the night’s Black Out theme.

Middle school basketball stars cheer on their older counterparts.

“We’re here all night, baby!!”

“They broke my camera…”

Sometimes the cameraman likes to wander.

You can only snap so many shots of basketball players at work before you need to shake things up a bit and spin the clicker towards the audience.

Fueled up by dangerously-high levels of Diet Coke, travelin’ photo man John Fisken delivered these snaps from Wednesday night’s home hoops doubleheader.

Bask in the glow.

Poor Canada. All that money and I still have a bigger photo crew than you.

While the Canuck-funded “local” newspapers do without a full-time photographer (hey, that’s money that can be spent on corporate vacations, eh?), I have an army at my beck and call.

Sort of.

None of them really respond to the whole beck and call thing very well. But they do take nice photos.

The photos above come courtesy of three different pic wizards — John Fisken, Eileen Stone and Wolf hoops star Maddie Big Time, aka Madeline Strasburg.
