They’re mat kings.

Despite not having a wrestling program of its own, Coupeville High School will send two grapplers to the state tournament this year.

Wolves Marquette Cunningham and Deven Ogden, who trained, traveled, and competed with 1A South Whidbey during the regular season, broke off Friday to begin their own postseason journey.

The duo went to Darrington to compete in the District 1/2/3 tourney for 2B/1B wrestlers, with both capturing individual titles.

Cunningham wrestles at 132 pounds, while Ogden hits the mat in the 165-pound classification.

Overall, CHS, with just two wrestlers, finished fifth in the team standings, while Darrington held off Muckleshoot Tribal for the title.

Concrete and Friday Harbor finished third and fourth, respectively, in the team standings.

With tri-district titles in hand, Cunningham and Ogden advance to the state championships, with Mat Classic XXXVII set for the Tacoma Dome.

The 2B/1B portion of the tourney goes down Feb. 20-21, with brackets released next week.

He’s here for the pins, and the clicks.

Coupeville High School senior Marquette Cunningham is a busy guy this winter.

While attending class at CHS, he and fellow Wolf Deven Ogden train, travel, and compete as wrestlers with South Whidbey since their home school doesn’t have its own mat program.

Also, when he’s not grappling, Cunningham pulls double duty as a photographer, snapping pics of his new teammates, such as the portraits captured above and below.

Our photographer is also ready to wage war on the wrestling mat.

Marquette Cunningham, man of many skills.

Marquette Cunningham is bridging the gap between Central and South Whidbey.

Along with fellow Coupeville High School student Deven Ogden, he’s traveling to Langley to compete as a wrestler this winter, taking advantage of an agreement between CHS and SWHS since the Wolves don’t have their own grappling program.

In between bouts, Cunningham, who shoots for the CHS Yearbook, is also staying busy as an intrepid photographer, snapping images of his new teammates as they toil on the mats.

He hits like a hammer, and snaps like a star.

When he’s not knocking heads on the football field, Coupeville High School senior Marquette Cunningham can often be found with a camera in hand, clicking away for the yearbook.

The pics seen above and below come to us courtesy of Ari’s big brother, capturing Wolf volleyball players (and fans) and their many moods.
