The rain didn’t dampen their spirit.

Despite Mother Nature dumping cold rain on Saturday’s Coupeville High School football game, Wolf Spirit Team members and their Junior Cheer counterparts stayed loud ‘n proud.

The photos above and below capture two generations of Cow Town cheerleaders in action, showcasing current CHS students passing on their love of the sport to those who will follow in their footsteps.

Well, guess you’re not mowing that lawn after all.

This Saturday’s Coupeville High School home football game against Adna, which will feature a Junior Cheer performance at halftime, has been bumped forward two hours.

Originally slated to kickoff at 5:00 PM, now things will get underway at 3:00.

The non-conference clash will pit a 1-5 Coupeville squad coming off a huge 35-6 win over next-door neighbor South Whidbey against an Adna team riding a three-game winning streak and sitting at 4-2.

It marks only the second time this season the Wolves have laced it up against a fellow 2B school, with CHS having played five of six against 1A rivals.

Cheer is family.

That credo, nurtured over many years by former Coupeville High School spirit coach Sylvia Arnold, continues to reverberate down through the generations.

Now, the girls who once cheered for her are women, and they continue the job of spreading joy, love, and the skills required to live loud ‘n proud, supporting Wolf Nation in all its forms.

Current CHS cheer coach Jennifer Morrell is a proud alumnus, and three others from the sisterhood — Cavan Simonson, Kristina Williams, and Lynn Cosner — are currently hard at work preparing Coupeville’s youngest cheerleaders for their show-stopping performance.

Junior cheer, which is offered through the Spirit of Cheer Booster Club, raises funds for college scholarships which are then bestowed upon graduating seniors each year, keeping alive the “circle of cheer.”

This year’s performance is set for halftime of Coupeville’s football game with Adna, which is Saturday, Oct. 18. Game kickoff is 5:00 PM.

The spirit is strong with them.

The next generation of cheerleaders was front and center Friday night as Coupeville High School hosted South Whidbey in the annual Battle for the Bucket.

A junior cheer performance at halftime featured more than 100 elementary school students in K-5.

One young woman was supporting both sides.

Brynna Drake, younger sister of current Wolf volleyball star Lexis and former CHS football giant Jaje, is always loud and proud at Coupeville games.

But Friday she was also cheering on Cousin Jonathan Rookstool, who plays for the Falcons gridiron team.
