The running is done, but the photos continue.

Saturday’s Race the Reserve drew nearly 300 runners to the prairie, and travelin’ camera clicker John Fisken caught a few of the quickest ones at the finish line for a photo op.

It all ends in 14 days.

Two weeks from today, summer vacation comes to a screachin’ halt for a chunk of Coupeville High School athletes, as Wednesday, Aug. 20 marks the first official day of practice for Wolf football players.

Volleyball, tennis and soccer players open practice Monday, Aug. 25, and the 2014-2015 school athletic year kicks off Friday, Sept. 5 with a home football game between CHS and those dastardly, college-coach-hirin’ interlopers from South Whidbey.

To get you prepped, we offer a few more photos from Coupeville’s recent summer scrimmage against Lakeside. The pics are courtesy John Fisken, and, if you like them, you can see more at:

Purchase any and a portion of your money goes to help fund scholarships for Wolf senior student/athletes. Breeanna Messner and Brandon Kelley nabbed the inaugural awards in June.

And remember, a portion of all sales goes to help fund scholarships for CHS student athletes.

This past school year, Breeanna Messner and Brandon Kelley became the first recipients. Who will be honored in 2015, and will a few of your bucks go to their cause?

The hunt goes on.

Having split its first two games at the state tournament, the Central Whidbey Little League Juniors All-Star softball squad returns to action this afternoon in a must-win game.

The Venom (18-1) play Woodinville at 4 PM in Shoreline, and a win puts them in the final four. A loss and they become the third team to be eliminated from the eight-team field.

To get you ready, take a gander at the pics above, shot during Sunday’s 4-1 win over Mercer Island by travelin’ photo man John Fisken.

John Fisken is the lifeblood of Coupeville Sports.

Along with Shelli Trumbull, Fisken, who celebrates his birthday today on Father’s Day, is one of the two photographers whose work appears the most often on this blog.

I could say a lot of words about how he’s very good at what he does and how much I appreciate that he does what he does and never charges me a dime.

Which would be all well and good.

I could gush on and on, and probably embarrass him, or I could just let his work speak for itself.

So, enjoy.
