The gym was hoppin’ and the camera was clickin’.

Monday afternoon was a busy time in the Coupeville Middle School gym, as the Wolves faced off with visiting Port Townsend, drawing in a mix of fans and paparazzi.

All the buses that stayed home in Coupeville are dry right now.

Well, they could have been playing outside…

   “I’m just saying, coach, if we can still see the road, we can certainly see the McDonalds.”

Through rain, through sleet, through snow, basketball will go on.

If Coupeville Middle School had played at home Monday, everyone would have seen bare, dry roads.

But, instead, the Wolves were off to Port Angeles to face Stevens (and its humongous student body) and things were a lot whiter.

Doubt me? Check out the photos above, which come to us from CMS 8th grade coach Bob Martin.

Once inside the gym, Coupeville slipped and slid to a pair of losses, one more lopsided than the other.

The Wolf 8th graders, who only suited six players, fell 68-28, while the 7th grade varsity lost 45-28.

The older squad, now 0-2 on the season, was led by Sage Downes and Jake Mitten, who went for 10 apiece.

Daniel Olson added five and Dakota Eck hit a trey.

The younger Wolves had a fantastic second quarter, dropping 18 points, but could only muster 10 across the other three periods and fell to 1-1.

Logan Martin and Caleb Meyer led the 7th graders with eight points apiece, while Connor Barton popped for six, Hawthorne Wolfe banked home four and Xavier Murdy added a bucket.

And things end on a happy note.

Eight days away.

As practice continues to play out, the Coupeville Middle School boys’ hoops squads are getting closer to their first action against someone not wearing the same uniform.

Opening afternoon is Thursday, Dec. 1, when Sequim comes to Whidbey (3:15 tip-off).

In preparation for the 10-game season, the young Wolves got their first taste of the photographic life recently when John Fisken wandered by the gym.

The photos above are courtesy him.

As the season progresses, we’ll have a lot more pics, and you’ll be able to buy glossies for Grandma over at Fisken’s site — http://www.johnsphotos.net/.

Hawthorne Wolfe

Hawthorne Wolfe was a key player all tourney.

“They showed the ability to beat every team they played.”

That was the assessment of veteran hoops coach Pat Kelley after he watched a plucky Coupeville 6th grade SWISH boys’ basketball squad, playing in its first tournament as a full unit, put up a strong effort this weekend against top-level competition.

While the Wolves, playing under the guidance of Nathan Barton and Ben Olson, finished 1-4 at the Tulip Tournament, they were in every game until the final stretch.

After knocking off Meridian Friday, Coupeville fell to Sedro-Woolley (27-15) and Everett AAU (33-20) Saturday, then were nipped Sunday by Meridian (40-29) and Everett (27-23).

Achieving a team goal, all eight Wolves on the roster scored in the tourney, with Caleb Meyer leading the way with 33.

Point guard and team captain Connor Barton, who topped Coupeville in assists and steals, was tabbed as the season MVP for “his leadership and elevating his entire team’s play.”

Rounding out the honorees, newcomer Miles Davidson was tabbed as the team’s tourney MVP.

Complete tourney stats:

Caleb Meyer — 33 points, 34 rebounds, 5 assists, 3 steals

Hawthorne Wolfe — 23 points, 16 rebounds, 4 assists, 8 steals

Logan Martin — 18 points, 38 rebounds, 4 assists, 4 steals, 2 blocked shots

Connor Barton — 14 points, 11 rebounds, 10 assists, 12 steals, 2 blocked shots

Miles Davidson — 12 points, 31 rebounds, 4 assists, 3 steals, 3 blocked shots

Cody Roberts — 8 points, 9 rebounds, 1 assist, 6 steals, 2 blocked shots

Danny Barajas — 2 points, 17 rebounds, 5 assists, 7 steals, 2 blocked shots

Jacob Kendall — 2 points, 5 rebounds, 2 assists
