King

  CHS coach David King, the ol’ gunslinger, keeps his game face on. Deep in his heart, however, he’s cheering the play.

Breezy

Try and run on Wolf catcher Breeanna Messner, and you’ll have plenty of time to regret the decision … while you sit on the bench.

Every game should be a home game.

It’s simple, really.

The Coupeville High School softball squad has had three road games — all rained out. Three home games — all played on beautiful, sun-drenched afternoons with NO RAIN and extremely limited wind (especially since the field sits on what is normally a wind-torn prairie).

Well, anyways, while you debate how to convince the other Cascade Conference athletic directors to sacrifice their home games and fire up the buses for frequent trips to Whidbey (it’s for the children!), you can also bask in the pics above.

They come courtesy travelin’ photo man John Fisken, and, if you like what you see, head over to the link below.

I’m talking about a .667 winning percentage.

That’s where Coupeville High School currently sits, with its spring sports teams boasting a combined 10-5 mark. Actually 11-5 if you count the fact the lone Wolf golfer, Christine Fields, won the individual title at her only meet.

But wait, it gets better.

The Wolves are a shiny 5-2 against their arch-rivals from down the Island, the bigger, but not necessarily better, South Whidbey Falcons.

How do you like them (road) apples, Langley?

But, enough of the bluster. There will be plenty of time for that as the spring plays out.

For now, I’ll shut up and move on, allowing you the time to do what you came here for — gazing at the glossy photos of traveling clicker John Fisken.

But did I mention CHS was 5-2 against South Whidbey?!?! I did? OK, good, good…

It was a dark and stormy night and then a couple of soccer games broke out.

Tuesday night in Coupeville was your typical damp, dank early taste of spring, but that didn’t stop the Wolves from facing off with Cedarcrest in two brawl-until-the-buzzer battles.

On hand to capture the action was traveling photo man John Fisken, who provided us with the images above.

Yep, this is spring.

A steady drizzle all the ding-dong morning has left the eternal question open — will Coupeville High School teams get to play this afternoon?

Stay tuned…

But fret not, we have fresh, never-before-seen John Fisken photos for you from events that have actually been played, by teams that managed to evade the early-season rain dance … so far.

You’re welcome.
