Sean LeVine

   The “old man” can still gun it in the open field. Whidbey Islander coach Sean LeVine may be sore tomorrow, but he’s on fire today.

They came, they saw, they played a little soccer.

Well, actually a lot of soccer.

Memorial Day weekend kicked off in style in Oak Harbor as the North Whidbey Soccer Club held its 11th annual “Rock On! 3v3” tourney Saturday and Sunday.

A ton of current, former and future Coupeville High School players took part, from Micky LeVine to Abraham Leyva to Jake Mitten and far beyond.

The tourney featured fast-paced, high-scoring play, with action taking place on a field 40 yards long by 30 yards wide.

Each team played with three players and there were no goalies.

Bouncing back and forth from field to field to capture a little taste of everything was wanderin’ photo man John Fisken, who provides us with the pics seen above.

Soccer stops for nothing.

A bit of rain? Play on.

So that’s just what the mass of teams at Fort Nugent did this weekend, as the annual Rock On 3v3 tourney played out through good weather and bad.

Our severely underpaid camera crew fanned out to capture the soccer smorgasbord pictured above, while I stayed dry at my house.

Nice.

Let’s get it on!

Soccer balls were flying all over the playing fields at Fort Nugent this weekend.

The annual Rock On 3v3 tourney attracted 60 teams and 320 participants, who all competed in a fast-paced game on a small field with no goalies and limited players.

The Coupeville-based squad of Kicks With Dre, headlined by current and former Wolf stars (Zane Bundy, Grayson Knott, Andre Stone, Evan Amulexen-Coleman and Travis Curtin), ran away with the adult division.

Their opponent in the final was almost a veteran squad comprised of local coaches and dads, the OGFC.

That squad (Sean LeVine, Mark Bundy, Kyle Nelson, Ben Leyva and Robert Wood) went unbeaten at 1-0-2, but came up just short of a win in its final match to get to the championship.

Multiple teams boasted talent from the the Whidbey Islanders GU18 select soccer squad, as well.
