It’s a sisterhood, 241 players strong.
The modern era of Coupeville High School girls’ basketball launched in 1974, in the wake of Title IX, and Wolf players have been scoring buckets for 49 seasons now.
We still don’t have scoring stats for that first CHS team, since the Whidbey News-Times flat-out didn’t cover their season.
But other than that, the effort to track down every last point scored by a varsity Wolf girl has been mostly successful.
There’s still a small question about a couple of games in the early-to-mid 2000’s (justice for Brittany Black!), but overall, we’re feeling pretty good about things.
With Wednesday’s playoff loss to La Conner, five Coupeville seniors put a stamp on their prep careers, with all five having cracked triple-digit scoring.
Maddie Georges, a four-year varsity vet, exits as the #24 all-time scorer — even while having lost games to the pandemic.
Then there’s Alita Blouin, who averaged almost 10 points a game in the 23 contests where she avoided injuries and got to stay on the floor.
Carolyn Lhamon, Gwen Gustafson, and Ryanne Knoblich also topped 100 points, with the latter two tying with exactly 122 career points apiece.
Looking forward to the 2023-2024 season, which (red alert, Willie Smith! red alert, Willie Smith!!!) will be the program’s 50th, there are six possible returnees who have already scored at the varsity level.
Lyla Stuurmans, currently a sophomore, tops that pack with 130 points, which puts her #89 with two seasons still ahead of her.
She would have to make quite the jump to catch sweet-shooting gunner Brianne King at the top of the list, but is only 101 points from cracking the top 50.

A little further down, fellow super sophomore Katie Marti lurks with 58 points and counting.
As she becomes a bigger part of the team’s offense, could she race past mom Christi Messner (125), Aunt Aimee Bishop (168), cousin Breeanna Messner (235), or Aunt Judy Marti (545)?
Only time, and the unpredictable bounce of ball on hardwood, will tell.
For now, time for all Coupeville girls hoops players, past, present, and future, to gaze upon the updated list as it sits mid-day Feb. 16, 2023.
We’re talking 36,869 points and counting.
