Graduation photos, falling from the heavens like rain drops.

Bouncing around the internet, I’m back to poach some more pics from Wolf Moms (and dads, and students).

Together, they form part of the tapestry of Saturday’s Coupeville High School ceremony, as the Class of 2023 nabbed diplomas.

Onward to the “real” world. But first, hold the moment fixed in time.

It’s portrait season.

Coupeville High School’s recent Senior Night festivities for its girls’ tennis team provided photographer Jackie Saia a chance to snap some up close and personal moments with Wolf players and coach Ken Stange.

Five 12th graders, two foreign exchange students, and one net guru, all making their final appearance on their home court and captured on film.

Netters capture gut-check win

It was a nail-biter that went the right way.

Sparked by a big win at #3 doubles Friday from Kaitlyn Leavell and Brynn Parker, the Coupeville High School girls’ tennis squad held off visiting Friday Harbor 3-2.

The victory lifts the Wolves to 2-0 in Northwest 2B/1B League play and helps them clinch at least a tie for the conference title.

Coupeville, which is 2-4 overall, with all its losses to bigger schools, has two chances to capture the crown outright.

The Wolves can add to coach Ken Stange’s considerable stash of plaques when they travel to Friday Harbor May 2.

If not then, CHS can also do it May 12, when they welcome the Wolverines to Whidbey on Senior Night.

Friday’s clash featured wins for Coupeville’s top singles player and #1 doubles duo.

Helen Strelow ran her record to 6-0 on the season, polishing off her opponent in straight sets, while fellow seniors Hayley Fiedler and Vivian Farris fought their way to the W as well.

But it was Leavell and Parker with the statement win, going the distance and pulling out a 12-10 decision in a third-set tiebreaker.

Ready to rumble.

 

Friday’s results:

 

Varsity:

1st Singles — Helen Strelow beat Isabella VanderYacht 6-0, 6-2

2nd Singles — Djina Radenovic lost to Lucy Marinkovich 7-5, 6-2

1st Doubles — Hayley Fiedler/Vivian Farris beat Kira Clark/Megan Mellinger 6-2, 7-5

2nd Doubles — Skylar Parker/Lucy Tenore lost to Eleanor Rollins/Ava Martin 6-1, 6-2

3rd Doubles — Kaitlyn Leavell/Brynn Parker beat Jem Mukundwa/Georgia Keune 6-3, 5-7, 12-10

 

JV:

Spikers sparkle, Tenore bids adieu

Lucy Tenore with the sweet swan song.

The Coupeville High School senior capped her prep volleyball career this weekend by leading the Whidbey Volleyball Club U18 spikers to a third-place finish at the Tulip Festival Tournament in Skagit County.

Tenore and Co. won five of seven matches, despite playing with the minimum six players Saturday.

That six-pack included Coupeville sophomore Katie Marti and junior Grey Peabody.

Wolf sophomores Mia Farris and Taylor Brotemarkle, who were mashing line drives for the Coupeville High School softball team Saturday, rejoined their volleyball compatriots for the final day of the tourney.

Whidbey won all eight sets it played Saturday, sweeping to four straight wins, then opened play Sunday with a fifth-straight sweep.

Two hotly contested losses, with the final one going to a third and deciding set, brought the tournament to an end.

Lucy Tenore, who currently plays tennis for the Wolf net crew, was a spike machine while playing high school and club volleyball during her teen years.

She is on target to graduate with the CHS Class of 2023 this spring but will leave behind younger sister Frankie to continue the family tradition of being awesome.

Busy weekend, big spikes

They’ll rest later.

Eight Coupeville girls spent Sunday and Monday taking part in the NW Juniors MLK Weekend Tournament at Shoreline College.

Three of those Wolves — Mia Farris, Jada Heaton, and Katie Marti — travelled to Neah Bay Saturday for a high school basketball game, then turned around and shot off to join their fellow spikers.

Topping things off, the trio played in four matches, then returned to Whidbey Island Monday in time to make it to basketball practice.

After their departure, the remaining eight members of the Whidbey Volleyball Club U18 squad played a final match, with the team finishing 3rd at the eight-team tourney.

The local spikers won two of three matches Sunday, and split their bouts Monday, playing 11 sets across five action-packed matches.

“There were some great sets, super exciting,” said mom Jennifer Marzocca.

Along with Marti, Farris, and Heaton, the U18 squad includes Coupeville’s Lucy Tenore, Grey Peabody, Taylor Brotemarkle, Chloe Marzocca, and Taygin Jump.

Wolf sophomore Madison McMillan is also on the team but was unable to make it to this event.

Rounding out the roster are four other players, led by Clara Juriaans of South Whidbey.

Oak Harbor is represented by Keira Newkirk, Alexia Sanchez, and Johanna Daggett.
